This paper examines the phenomena of aggression and bullying among preschool children from a theoretical point of view, highlighting the background factors behind these types of behaviours occurring between the ages of 3 and 7. The links between aggression and bullying are also analysed in detail, highlighting the specific forms and roles that appear among preschoolers. The key role of teachers and the treatment of preschool aggression and bullying is also examined, as well as the challenges teachers face in the field of bullyingDownloads
