Summary/Abstract: Folklore includes all artistic, literary, musical, plastic creations, belonging to the spiritual culture, customs, popular traditions of a country. Popular literature or literary folklore includes oral, anonymous, collective, popular and syncretic artistic creations. It is a narrower field of values in constant motion, like the whole complex of popular culture, given the need for continuous adaptation to the ever new requirements of the peoples who created and preserved them. Children's folklore is a syncretic phenomenon, combining text, melody, gesture, movement, play, has a collective accent. The individual moral consciousness is the result of the accumulations of experience in the hypostasis of permanent subject of some moral facts, as well as of the constituted actions that are executed in the name of the social morality.
