The early childhood education in China is a reflection of the modern society, politics and economy in China from the Opium War to 1949, and it came into being and developed with the development of modern politics and economy in China.

The Emergence and Implementation of Early Childhood Education Institutions in the Late Qing Dynasty: The seeds of capitalism in China began to appear in the Ming Dynasty in the17th century, but the corruption of the Qing government hindered the development of capitalism. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, China society was still a feudal autocratic system, with centralized politics, small-scale peasant economy as the mainstay, weak feudal forces and a closed door policy.

At this time, however, there was an industrial revolution in the west, which actively expanded to the outside world and demanded that China open its market to them. Advocacy of Modern Early Childhood Education Under the above circumstances, Kang Youwei, a modern thinker and representative of bourgeois reformists in China, first put forward the proposition of early childhood education on the basis of criticizing and opposing the darkness of the old feudal family and its bad influence on children.

He advocated abolishing the family, lifting the shackles of feudal ethics and building an ideal society without class, oppression, common property and equality between men and women.

In this society, mothers receive prenatal education training in people's hospitals established by the state from the beginning of pregnancy, and babies receive education in nurseries and baby-friendly homes after birth. Children are publicly educated by the state, and enter primary school after reaching the age of 6, and then go to middle school and university. China early childhood education institution is a social education institution for early childhood in China with the promulgation of Guimao Academic System.
