Environmental education for preschool children has the following significance:
1. Cultivate children's awareness of environmental protection. Environmental awareness refers to the individual's cognition and perception of the natural environment, as well as his attitude and behavior towards environmental protection. Environmental education can cultivate children's environmental awareness and behavior by letting them experience and practice the natural and social environment.
2. Cultivate children's habits of environmental protection. Environmental habits refer to the formation of personal behaviors and ways to protect and maintain the environment. Pre-school children's environmental education can guide children to develop good environmental habits, such as saving water and sorting garbage.
3. Promote children's all-round development. Preschool education is an important stage of children's education, and environmental education can provide children with opportunities for all-round development. Through environmental education, children can understand the natural and social environment, develop their senses and intelligence, cultivate their innovative ability and imagination, and improve their self-management and social skills.
4. Enhance social environmental awareness. Environmental education for preschool children is not only of great significance to the cultivation of children's own environmental awareness and habits, but also plays a positive role in promoting social environmental awareness and environmental action. Children are the future of society, and their environmental awareness and actions will affect the environmental protection of society.
To sum up, environmental education for preschool children, the cultivation of children's environmental awareness and habits, the all-round development of children and the promotion of social environmental awareness are of great significance.
