In the article the theoretical foundations of forming generalized processual ideas about objects of the environment in children of preschool age are revealed. The generalized processual idea is interpreted as the knowledge the origin of which is in the child's object-transformative activities. Children can master scientific knowledge on the essential properties of objects if corresponding conditions are provided: reflection of the development and change essential regularities in the operational structure of the changeable image of an object that constitute the meaning of generalized concepts; direct object manipulations when studying a process; determining the necessary and reasonable number of operations that constitute the structure of the process; generalization of the operational structure of a dynamic image when the object or manipulation conditions are changed.
