Obdanište
Obdanište ili vrtić je predškolska ustanova čija je namena vaspitanje, briga i čuvanje dece do šest godina starosti. Cilj obdaništa je da se dete prepremi za osnovnu školu, da nauči da komunicira, sklapa prijateljstva, da se zabavlja i nauči osnovne stvari o životu. Vrtić je u Srbiji, obavezan za svu decu predškolskog uzratsta i uslov je za dalji nastavak školovanja. Rad sa decom u obdaništima obavljaju vaspitači.
