Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences holds that human intelligence is not single, but a combination of multiple intelligences. He put forward eight kinds of intelligence, namely: language intelligence, logical mathematics intelligence, spatial intelligence, body movement intelligence, music intelligence, interpersonal intelligence, introspection intelligence and natural observation intelligence. This theory has great enlightenment to preschool education. First of all, it reminds us that we should not only pay attention to the education of language and logical mathematics, but ignore the cultivation of intelligence in other aspects. Every child has a different intelligence combination, and their ability to perform well in different aspects should be fully valued and developed.

Secondly, this theory provides more educational ways and means for preschool education. For example, the intelligent education of physical exercise can be sports activities, handcrafting, dancing, etc. Musical intelligence can be stimulated and developed by singing, playing musical instruments and listening to music. These diversified educational methods can better meet the different needs and interests of children.

In addition, Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences also reminds us to pay attention to cultivating children's social skills and emotional intelligence. The cultivation of interpersonal intelligence and introspective intelligence can make children better understand and master social rules, get along with others better and improve their self-cognitive ability.

In a word, Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences provides many beneficial inspirations for preschool education. Let us pay attention to the diversified development of children, respect their individual differences and diversified educational methods, and create more learning opportunities and growth space for children.
