The objective needs of the individual and society for protection against dangers arising from the human encroachment have now reached the maximum extent. The aim of the paper is to define how folklore peculiarities affect the formation of human security behavior culture.

The relevance of the problem under study is due to the fact that the human security behavior culture has always been in the focus of any ethnic group’s attention, which was reflected in mythology, fairy-tales, epics, proverbs and sayings. The people, the genius creator of the language and the teacher all in one, brought into being the greatest works of artistic expression that are intended to lead children in all stages of their emotional and moral development.
