The basic aim of the paper was to analyze the relationship between some active risk problems in the behavior of early and preschool children in kindergarten and ways of spending children's time when they are with their parents. The research was conducted in two cities of the Istrian County, Višnjan and Tinjan, with a sample of 60 respondents. Respondents were children (N=60; M=36, F=24, AM=4,9, SD=1,16) attending kindergartens in these cities and their parents gave informed consent to participate in the study. Kindergarten teachers (N=10; M=0, F=10, AM=31,7, SD=9,32) assessed active risk problems in children’s behavior while parents reported on how the child spent time while they are with their families. For the purpose ofndata collection, the Questionnaire on Kinesiological Ways of Spending Time with the Family, the Questionnaire on Time Spent in Front of the Monitor with the Family and the Scale of Socia l Competences and Behavioral Assessment for Preschoolers were used (La Franiere i Dumas, 1995). The results of the research showed that, looking at the individual particles of the scale of active risk behaviors of children in kindergarten, there is no connection between the way of spending time in any form of kinesiological activity with the occurrence of some active risk behaviors in children of early and preschool age. The obtained implications need to be further researched with larger sample of respondents and with the verification of other relevant variables in order to be able to offer in practice elements of counseling work to parents of children with risky behaviors in kindergarten.
