The problem of early learning of a foreign language and the psychological readiness 
of children to learn has always been relevant, since the effectiveness of future learning 
of children depends on the ways to solve it. The article highlights the main 
components of the psychological readiness of preschool children to learn, the 
arguments "for" and "against" early learning of a foreign language are considered, the 
optimal age of learning a foreign language is determined, the specifics of the 
organizations of preschool children's classes are considered and a conclusion is made 
that, that the expediency of the early start of learning a foreign language does not 
depend on the age of the child, and from its individual features and degree of readiness 
for training.

Introduction
At present, the prospects of early teaching of foreign languages (FL) in terms of the 
comprehensive improvement of the child's personality, his humanitarian 
development and familiarization with general cultural values are not in doubt. The 
process of Russia's entry into the world community puts the problem of good 
knowledge of a foreign language in one of the first places in the education system, 
which is why more and more attention is now being paid to early learning of foreign 
languages. To a large extent, this interest is purely pragmatic, because without a good 
knowledge of a foreign language, one cannot count on both the harmonious entry of 
our country into the world community, and the professional and life success of an 
individual. Knowledge of at least one foreign language in our time has turned from a 
wish into an urgent need. Many parents wonder how and when to start teaching a 
child a foreign language, even when he is not even a year old. It has been proven that 
the psychological characteristics of preschool children give them advantages in 
learning a foreign language at subsequent stages. Early language learning is not only 
a tribute to fashion, because a modern child is constantly faced with foreign speech. 
Through communication and activities in a foreign language, the child develops and
