The article provides experience in the use of art therapy for the correction of the psychoemotional state of primary school children with stuttering. In order to experimentally test the effectiveness of the developed system of exercises on the use of art therapy in correcting the psychoemotional state of primary school children with stuttering, the following tasks were identified:1. To diagnose the initial level of the psychoemotional state of primary school-age children suffering from stuttering.2. To develop and test a system of art therapy exercises for the correction of the psychoemotional state of primary school children with stuttering.3. To determine the effectiveness of the system of art therapy exercises for the correction of the psychoemotional state of primary school children with stuttering.The study was conducted in three stages. To determine the level of formation of the psychoemotional state of primary school children with stuttering, we used the experience and recommendations for working with children who have speech fluency disorders by Wiesel, as well as: an adapted projective technique in the form of a diagnostic game "The Missing Monkey", developed by Voropaeva; the method of studying the emotional state by the type of color sensitivity shift according to Dorofeeva; "Children's anxiety test", developed by American psychologists Tamml, Dorki and Amen; methodology for determining self-esteem "Ladder" for primary school age, modified by Shur; "Methodology for studying the motivation of learning in older preschoolers and younger schoolchildren" by Ginzburg. After analyzing the survey data, we found that all children have:- violations of the emotional sphere, manifested in the lack of means of emotional expression;- the indicator of the emotional state is characterized by a change in the parameters in the area of the state of arousal, but this is caused by negative emotions;- violations of communicative interaction are determined by an increased level of anxiety.
