For a child playing games is very important, because through it, he gets to know the world. It also has a strong influence on his development into a social being, as the playing itself plays an important role in the child's emotional life. In pre – school period the easiest way to transmit knowledge is through playing games. It is necessary to plan quality activities, as the focus is on the method with playing games and not the game itself. Playing games can also be an activity through which children learn about social and physical environment. A child also perceives artistic activity as a game. This enables a pleasant experience, socialization, raises satisfaction, raises self-esteem and self-confidence of the child. Young children express themselves in a specific way. They are just getting to know procedures, materials and tools. In fact, artistic development starts in a random game with a pencil. The lines have their own character, straight line means something else than a crooked one, a thick line has a different meaning than a thin one. The word "scribble" itself hints at something insignificant, but it is far from being so. It is this scribble that actually contains important elements of kinesthetic experience. Artistic activities are used as a method with which we strive to improve the well-being of an individual. Today, we cannot ignore the so-called new media and the opportunities they provide. The endless possibilities they offer enable our creativity. Computers, tablets and phones, can be included among new releases. These devices bring the virtual world closer to a child. Today, the word multimedia relates to computer systems and computerized environment. Digital art that is based on computers includes art from movies, photos and digital music. When the visual image is translated into a digital language, each image becomes digital information, which is at our disposal. Computer is an excellent media for games, and intellectual services. Art work with computers is being used increasingly in kindergartens. Computer is like any other art technique; a tool that enables new ways of artistic expression.
