This led to the design of a number of programs aimed at developing an understanding of emotions. Such programs have different content, often contradictory in comparison with each other. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to identify the possibilities and limitations of the content of programs aimed at developing an understanding of emotions. The method in this study was a comparative analysis of programs. The programs were compared using the components of understanding emotions highlighted in the F. model. Pons and P.L. Harris. Eight educational programs for developing preschoolers' understanding of emotions presented in peer-reviewed publications were selected. As a result of the conducted research, the possibilities of the content of programs based on various approaches to the child's understanding of emotion were highlighted. The limitations of programs determined by such approaches were also highlighted. In addition, the features of the topic of understanding emotions were highlighted, which make it possible to deepen the content of programs when designing.
