Music undoubtedly affects the visual and emotional sensitivity of a person. It stimulates various sensations, thoughts, images and sensations that cause a desire for free expression of the personality. Through the conscious perception of music, knowledge, skills and relationships are created that develop imagination, fantasy and creativity, especially in children of preschool and primary school age. This nurtures qualities and competences, preparing the future personal, professional and social development of the child. The proposed article examines in a theoretical aspect: categories of skills formulated by Seth Godin - self-control, productivity, wisdom, perception, impact; elements of the communicative process based on Lasswell communicator, receiver, channel of communication between the source and receiver, means of transmitting the message, effect of transmitting the message; phases of creative development according to Desev and Brik - logical analysis, intuitive decision, verbalization of the intuitive decision, formalization of the verbalized decision. The listed theoretical justifications have been transferred and adapted to the perception of music in preschool and primary school age. The development of figurative, emotional and logical thinking through listening to music provokes and activates children's curiosity and inquisitiveness to enrich and expand not only the informational sound field, but also to search for meaningful connections between phenomena, actions, relationships, to create skills and competencies in various life and, in the future, professional situations, to cultivate emotional intelligence and activate the desire for creativity.
