Summary/Abstract: This publication emphasizes the importance of continuity between the educational direction „The World Around Us“ in preschool education and the subject „Homeland Studies“ in the initial stage of education, by providing a theoretical framework and practical examples of how these two educational subjects complement each other and prepare children for their further education. The educational content was examined and the similarities and differences in the topics studied and the areas of competence in the educational field „World Around“ in kindergarten and the subject „Homeland Studies“ in school were identified. An analysis of the curricula of the Ministry of Education and Science was conducted, as well as the expected outcomes (knowledge, skills and attitudes), which are a prerequisite for a smooth transition in training between the two educational levels.
