In the early years of Soviet power a new type of theatre was born in the country: the children's theatre. At present over twenty million school-children attend performances at children's theatres annually.
The theatres play an important role in the ideological and aesthetic education of children. Their productions touch upon the most burning problems of today; they present a truthful and realistic picture of the life in modern times, they stage plays about the heroic past, shaping the child's aesthetic tastes, establishing norms of communist morality and a high spirit of patriotism and internationalism.

Younger children prefer puppet shows. Here they are introduced to the treasures of folk and fairy tales of the peoples of the Soviet Union and the world. The State Puppet Theatre is actually an artistic and methodological centre for all of the country's puppet theatres.
