In the school year 2024/2025, we decided to join the project Innovative Pedagogy 5.0 with a group of children aged 4 to 6. The main purpose was to establish the basic contents of computer science and information technology. Our aim was to follow the development of algorithmic thinking. The article intends to represent the systematically planned and executed activities, which gradually helped us to achieve the set goals. We used the observation method to learn about the children’s foreknowledge, which helped us to thoroughly plan the algorithmic thinking activities before performing them. The field of mathematics motivated us to develop the skills that ensured a more successful realization of the given assignments. The progress was monitored and analyzed with the method of participant observation. We performed the activities through play, which is the strongest motivational tool for learning, and the use of ICT, which enabled their understanding of the basic concepts of algorithms. Children developed the skills of problem solving with the help of logical, consecutive steps, which gradually led them to achieve a higher level of thinking and involvement.
