The subject of the article is experiencing emotions by abandoned children, staying in educational care centers.
These institutions cause children to function in the rigid framework, which on the one hand helps them live in
a society, on the other hand limits the development of their own “I”, hindering the development of the
emotional sphere. The text describes the tool (Blob Test) used by the author in educational work, developing
emotionality of children in educational care facilities.
