In particular, psychological patterns and peculiar aspects of how children’s consciousness is formed under the influence of media information are discussed, with special emphasis on the positive and negative influence of media technologies on children of preschool age. The socialization possibilities of the mass media consists in the capacity to spread knowledge and shape the way in which reality is perceived and evaluated: they actually construct a subjective reality and “immerse” the younger generation in it.
