Summary/Abstract: The author of this study deals with the reception of animated films by child viewers. She attempts to clarify the process of how animated stories are understood with regard to the cognitive and emotional skills of children of preschool (4–6) and early school age (7–9). She confirms the theoretical propositions of developmental psychology and supplements them with a qualitative testing of selected age groups. The study aims to outline how children think and apply this knowledge in analyzing the process of how they watch animated films, children’s most favourite film genre. The results not only point to the problems of child viewers, but also of films intended for them.
