Sažetak
Starting from dimensions of family relationships, a survey was conducted to investigate the dimension of parents and preschool children’s playtime together. The study was conducted on a sample of 350 parents of children aged three to six. The sample included parents of children attending nursery schools in three counties (Zadar, Sibenik-Knin and Split). Using an adapted Beavers scale of family system, some dimensions of family relationships were tested, with particular attention to aspects of everyday time together for play. The specified dimension was evaluated on a scale of one to four (not at all, generally do not, generally, completely), and the results have shown that only 22.6% of parents of preschool children have daily full time to play together with their children. Examining the relationship between this dimension of family relationships, and other socio demographic variables of parents, there is a possible connection between the parents’ playtime together with the material and the residential status of the parents. Specifically, the results suggest that parents with better financial status spend more time together playing with children (χ2 = 43.157, C = 0.33, P =, 000). But, the analysis of variance did not confirm statistically significant correlation (F = 2.736, P> 0.05). The results also indicate possible correlation of residential status and the available playtime between parents and children (χ2 = 29.606, C = 0.28, P =, 001), but analysis of variance did not confirm statistically significant correlation (F=2,654;P>0,05). There is no evidence of correlation between everyday playtime and other socio demographic variables (educational status of parents, sex of the parents, number of children in the family and the number of family members).
