Summary/Abstract: The establishment of lateral dominance of the hand, eye, ear and leg, also known as lateralisation of function in the cerebral cortex, is one of the key processes in the development of preschool children. The aim of this article is to highlight the importance of pre-school setting in the establishment of the child's functional asymmetry. As a method, a review of the literature and the current state of research. The lateral dominance should form at the latest in the third year of life. On the basis of the literature review, it was found that the type of lateralisation can be correlated with other characteristics, i.e., language or motor skills. The pre-school period is a time in which the child, supported by the educational institution, attains new skills, develops his or her own potential and realises his or her potential. The pre-school period is a time in which the child, supported by the educational institution, attains new skills, develops his or her own potential and implements the developmental tasks the ontogenetic stage. Ultimately, the child in the care and support environment, gains the competence to enter school. An intensive time in terms of physical and mental development, requires special care and close observation on the part of the teachers involved. Disorders resulting from developmental disturbances can result, for example, in difficulties at school or even in the abnormal development of speech or motor skills. This article is about the tasks that pre-schools can do to support the child in achieving optimal functional asymmetry of the body. Emphasising the role of the kindergarten in the formation of development of lateral dominance is important for the development of the child's intellectual potential.
