The revival of the traditional rag doll, which preserves in its image the identity and characteristic features of the people who create it, today should be assessed as a contribution to the development and popularization of folk art culture.

We have developed and tested the "Volshebniy larets" curriculum for elementary school children, in which a traditional rag doll is a mean of studying folk culture.

Testing the program showed that by turning to folk dolls you can arouse children's interest in traditional culture, and form a holistic picture of the cultural past and present.
