The article touches upon the issues of the conditions of learning which play a signifi cant role in acquiring and developing knowledge by younger school-age children. The aim of the research was to recognize the common concepts of younger school-age children about the factors which facilitate or hinder the learning process. The article presents the assumptions of qualitative research carried out on several focus groups consisting of 135 younger school-age children. The analysis of data acquired during the focus interview shows that the knowledge of the younger school-age children on the conditions of learning process is really extensive and touches upon numerous aspects pertaining to the process itself. Children are able to recognize and name, in a colloquial language, the factors which either hinder or support their learning process. The presented analysis is the basis to form the conclusions in the fi nal part of the article.
