Understanding and respecting our self, respecting the others around us, perceiving our own attitudes, values, but also respecting the culture, values of the other, different from our self, the development of the so-called intercultural sensitivity, begins at the earlies age, first at the family, and after in an organized way in the preschool institution. Basic principles on which the Early Learning and development program in R. Macedonia is base, predicted common goals that need to be achieve through different domains, for a development period of up to 6 years, activities and expected outcomes are target at strengthening the intercultural sense, strengthening the multiculturalism of child from the very youngest age. The paper elaborates the problem with intercultural sensitivity among preschool children. The applied qualitative methodology (analysis of goals, expected outcomes, activities for the development period of 4-5 , and 5-6 years in the domain of social-emotional development and cognitive domain in the Early Learning and development program), as well as the empirical experiences from the realized activities in the preschool institutions (applied participative observation in the child group 5-6 years), leads us to the conclusion that preschool age is crucial for strengthening and nurturing the intercultural sense, the base for educating citizens, the builders of a multicultural society.
