The object of the research – 5–6 years old children physical fitness and its changes. 1. Hypothesis – physical education program based on gymnastic exercises have a significant impact on preschool children's physical fitness. 2. Hypothesis – physical education program directed to the movements of a variety of different tools have a significant impact on preschool children's physical fitness. The goals of the research: 1. To determine the effect of different physical education programs on preschool age boys physical fitness. 2.

To determine the effect of different physical education programs interrelation between physical fitness. Conclusions: 1. Physical education program aimed of the variety of movements with different tools, significant improved in preschool boys agility, speed and coordination skills (p0,05). 2. Physical education program aimed of the variety of movements with different tools, had a significant improvement in pre-school age girls in agility, speed, flexibility and ability (p0,05). 3. Regardless of sex between the components of physical capacity indicators in almost all cases, the very weak correlation was statistically significant (p>0,05). All components of physical fitness were closely related, the study only after a higher interdependence. A statistically significant correlation was found between the explosive leg muscle strength, coordination and flexibility (p0,05) and among girls groups weak correlation was observed between agility and other physical fitness components (p>0,05)
