Examines the psychological and pedagogical aspects of shaping personal qualities in primary school children through the traditional value systems of Kyrgyz, Kazakh, and Uzbek cultures. It offers a comparative analysis of important customs, including “Jeti Ata” (seven ancestors), blessings (bata), taboo expressions, the Mahalla community, hair braiding, the tradition of “Süyünchü” (good news reward), and the “Tuşoo Kesuu” (leg-cutting ceremony). The article explores how these traditions contribute to moral development, ethnic identity, and children's social awareness. The research applies ethnopsychological and ethnopedagogical methods to highlight how ancestral upbringing practices can be effectively integrated into modern education systems.
