The issues of effective interaction between parents and educators are relevant to modern theory and practice of preschool education. In 2020, pre-school education in the Russian Federation was forced to operate under the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to a massive shift of institutions of this type to a remote format of operation and had a significant impact on the livelihoods of both preschoolers and their parents. The aim of this study was to identify the range of problems parents faced when being isolated during the pandemic and establishing an online gaming club as a means of transforming the interaction between parents and educators in remote access using remote educational technologies. As the main tool of the study, questionnaire methods were used to clarify the problematic experience of parents of preschoolers and their attitude to such a format of interaction with teachers as the Online Gaming Parent Club. The authors found that the creation and operation of the Online Gaming Parent Club is the best way to transform the interaction between teachers and parents of preschoolers in modern conditions and allows to solve the problems of organizing joint play activities of parents and children in the conditions of home education and education.
