Sažetak
Because of the importance of coordinating the factors of organized
out-of-family upbringing with such influences within the family, in the
last few decades special attention has been given to cooperation with
parents. The concept of cooperation with parents has changed in
accordance with the search for new, more efficient forms of work with
parents, thus today it implies the most complex form of cooperation,
and that is the inclusion of parents directly into the process of education.
Such a form of cooperation is confronted with numerous obstacles
in real life. The most significant were those that related to the
expert-educator, of whom it was expected to accept the parent as a
partner. Although in children's library playrooms the presence of
parents is quite customary during play time, the possibility for parents
to be included in the games their children are playing makes the
librarians distrustful as it does the kindergarten teachers where
parents are not continually present. The results of action research
which followed the development of the project including parents in
the playrooms, called "Association of children and parents", have proven
that the negative expectations of the educators regarding parents'
participation in children's play were unfounded. As the educators
gradually realized that the fears of their competence being threatened
had not come true, they became supportive of the project and are
largely responsible for its success.
