Pay more attention to education than culture.
A: In the actual educational process, school education in China always emphasizes intellectual education over physical education and knowledge over morality. There are many reasons for this phenomenon, including the following aspects:

(1) The influence of long-term cultural traditions

As an ancient civilization with a long history of 5,000 years, people pay more attention to giving children enough cultural knowledge, and other aspects can be ignored. This has also had a negative impact on today's early childhood education.

(2) parents' utilitarian needs

Due to the implementation of the one-child policy, at present, the only child accounts for more than 90% of urban families in China. Parents' mentality of "looking forward to their children's success" and "looking forward to their women's success" is very common. Many parents choose career orientation and learn a skill for their children too early, hoping that their children can win the talent competition. As the goal of preschool education, some basic connotations of preschool children's personality cultivation, physical quality improvement and aesthetic quality improvement are ignored and weakened.

(3) the pressure of exam-oriented education

Due to the realistic contradiction between the competition for higher education and the competition for employment, school education has fallen into the mode of exam-oriented education, which has also affected the pre-school education stage extensively and profoundly. The popular "zero-year-old plan" and "child prodigy plan" all reflect the influence of exam-oriented education in preschool education.

It is precisely because of the above reasons that parents and preschool institutions pay more attention to knowledge infusion rather than ability training; The wrong tendency of attaching importance to intelligence cultivation and neglecting personality cultivation. Driven by parents' pressure or economic interests, some kindergartens set up various interest classes and super-long classes, which interfered with and affected the realization of the goal of all-round development education in kindergartens.
