Abstract	The choice of research theme and its topicality was defined by the existing conflict between theory and practice that nowadays still appears in the teaching of Home Economics and Technologies. On the one hand, the school is supposed to promote pupils’ creative potential, but in real life the training process is widely expanded by reproductive activity. The aim of the study was to explore problematic aspects of the elementary school pupils’ expressions of creative activity and to reveal their promotion opportunities in the training of Home Economics and Technologies, working with natural materials, The research used theoretical methods – literature, document analysis and empirical methods – interviews, observation and practical experience analysis as well as mathematical data processing. The study was carried out in Teacher Training and Educational Management Academy and in urban and rural elementary schools of Latvia. Younger pupils’ creative activity is the creativity that is an original creation of the craft, which is a new approach in task solution in the process of knowledge and skills acquisition, in combining the methods of known activity. A problem situation and motivation is relevant for the development of creative activity as the expression of needs and interests which experiences the unity of emotional and intellectual awareness. In the training of Home Economics and Technologies, the precondition of pupils’ creative activity development is a variable choice of methodological techniques. Pupils’ creative expression activities in the training of Home Economics and Technologies are closely related to the teacher’s professionalism to choose methodological techniques promoting creative activity, and to feel that their acquisition is significant for oneself.
