This study is a result of experiment to recognize geometric and spacial conceptions for early childhood. This researcher had built up Mandala figures which was an intermediary between consciousness and unconsciousness, and then have studied about early childhood's geometric and spatial concepts by using Mandala figures. In this paper, authors have studied fractal art activities of early childhood as a follow-up study, since the structure of fractal art is similar to Mandala. As a result, three years old young children have significant correlation in four areas(figure perception, visual discrimination, position-in space perception and visual memory), but five years old young children have significant in three areas(figure perception, position-in space perception and visual memory). For five years old group, there is some difference between boys and girls, also they had described for their art activities like real models.

Looking at trends by target age, in the case of the papers which studied on the single age, the number of papers researching on age 3.51%) for 2 years old, 2.63% for the 3 years old, 9.65% for the 4 years old, 35.96% for the 5 years old. A total of 40.36% consisted of children aged between 2 and 5 years. A total of 7.89% were published for infants and children with handicapped. The number of theses that studied emotional development accounted for 30.7%, social development was 25.44%, cognitive development was 16.67%, self concept development was 14.04%, physical development was 6.14%, language development was 3.51% and other development was 3.51%. As a result of the above analysis, it was necessary to study the language development and the forest play.

사람마다 다 색깔이 있다. 물론 좋아하는 색깔도 가지각색이다. 특히 유아시기(만2세이상∼만5세이하)는 다른 시기의 유아들 보다 색에 대한 관심이 특별하다. 즉, 어떤 물체를 형태보다는 색채에 의하여 동일 물체로 인정하려 하여 자신이 좋아하는 색채에 대해서 민감한 반응을 보이게 된다. (중략)

This study has an objective of suggesting the ways to improve infant's sense of self-respect and peer competence, by examining what effect infant temperament has on infant's sense of self-respect and peer competence. The notable study results through analysis are as follows; First, it was shown that, in regard with adaptability and activity of infant temperament, cognitive ability of the sense of self-respect and peer acceptance, the average score of day care centers was higher, while it was shown that, in regard with response of infant temperament, the sense of self-respect's mother acceptance, peer relationship, sociability of peer competence, the average score of kindergartens was higher, and the boy infants' physiological regularity was shown to be higher than that of girl infants. Second, as a result of looking into the difference of infant temperament, sense of self-respect, and peer competence according to infant's age, we found that, in case of 'response' of infant temperament, age 5 group was classified into 'group a', and age 3 and 4 group was classified into 'group b', and two groups showed the difference, and in case of 'physiological regularity', age 3 group had the biggest regularity while age 5 group had the relatively low regularity, thus two groups showed the difference. In regard with sense of self-respect and peer competence, it was shown that age 4 and 5 group had higher one than that of age 3 group.

Children develop their language skill rapidly between age 3 and 5. To meet the child's language development through a variety of experiences, it is necessary to develop age-appropriate contents. So it needs to develop various contents using speech interface for children, but there is no speech database of korean children. In this paper, we develop speech database of 3 to 5 years old children in korean. For collecting accurate children's speech, child education experts examine in the speech database development process. The words for database are selected from MCDI-K in two stage and children speak a word three times. Such collected speech are tokenized by child and word and stored in database. This speech database will be transferred through web and, hopefully, be the foundation of development of children-oriented contents.

This study was designed to investigate and analyze children's preference on animation characters according to age and gender of the subjects, by surveying 255 children aged from 3 to 5. The animation characters were represented in pictures, and the reasons of preference were collected through individual interview with the children. The $x^2$ verification of SPSS 18.0 Window statistic program was used to verify the difference in preference. As a result, children aged from 3 to 5 showed higher preference on animations produced in foreign countries than the ones produced in Korea, as Korean animations and foreign-country animations had preference rate of 35.7% and 64.3%, and Korean characters and foreign-country characters had preference rate of 22.4% and 77.6% respectively. Depending on the age of children, there was significant difference among animation characters that the children prefer ($x^2=302.474^{***}$, P<.001), and it was shown that children at the age of 3 showed preference on 'Pororo' of Pororo the Little Penguin, children at the age of 4 on 'Tayo' of Tayo the Little Bus and 'Amu' of Shugo Chara, and children at the age of 5 on 'Shin Chan' of Crayon Shin Chan. It was also revealed that there was significant difference among animation characters according to the gender of children ($x^2=120.864^{***}$, P<.001); boys preferred 'Pororo' of Pororo the Little Penguin the most, followed by 'Doraemon' of Doraemon, 'Thomas' of Thomas and Friends and 'Tayo' of Tayo the Little Bus, and girls preferred 'Pororo' of Pororo the Little Penguin the most, followed by 'Apple' of Little Princess, 'Amu' of Shugo Chara and 'Loopy' of Pororo the Little Penguin. Through this study, it is hoped that the development of children animation would advance further, and that this study could be used as the preliminary resource.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the variables that affect the problem behavior of children and to examine the relationships between problem behavior of young children in relation to the child's characteristics(temperament and ego-resiliency), the mother's characteristics(parenting stress and personality characteristics), and the teacher's characteristics(teacher-child relationship and emotional expressiveness). The researcher surveyed 314 parents and 56 teachers of young children in the transitional period from 32 early childhood institutes in Daejeon. The summaries of the results of the study are as seen below. First, the child's gender and mother's education were statistically significant variables in explaining the variance in problem behavior of young children. More boys than girls showed more problem behaviors and children of mothers who graduated university showed less problem behavior. Second, teacher-child relationship was the most predictive variable in problem behavior of young children. Children who had good relationships with their teachers showed less problem behavior and children who had poor relationships with their teachers showed more problem behavior. The results of this study can provide basic data for consulting and developing program to prevent and treat the problem behavior of young children to consider the development of children.
