Before World War II, preschool education was rarely included in the national education system. After World War II, governments around the world generally paid more attention to preschool education. Many countries bring preschool education into the national education system and attach importance to the connection with primary schools.

Preschool education is an integral part of education, and the day when human society was born is the time when preschool education came into being. Preschool education is the initial stage of educational activities and the first educational stage of life. Preschool education in a broad sense refers to all activities that have an impact on the physical and mental development of preschool children. It comes from all aspects of society, schools and families. Preschool education in a narrow sense refers to the education implemented by specialized preschool education institutions, that is, the education in nurseries and kindergartens.

Preschool education is a comprehensive subject.

Preschool education can be divided into broad sense and narrow sense. Preschool education in a broad sense refers to the care and education of children from birth to 6 or 7 years old. Preschool education in a narrow sense refers to the care and education of children aged 3-6 or 7.

Preschool education is one of the professions with the highest employment rate, which is almost in short supply. Many kindergartens need to "place orders" in advance. Because the society is not short of kindergarten teachers, but short of high-educated and high-quality kindergarten teachers. Such a teacher should not only have certain artistic practice ability, but also have extensive cultural accomplishment and wisdom of understanding things and observing people, as well as keen scientific research consciousness and good scientific research ability. Childhood is an important period for the formation and development of personality, so preschool education plays an important role in children's growth.

There is a shortage of talents in the kindergarten teacher industry, and many people may want to become a kindergarten teacher through their own efforts. However, it is difficult to find the specialty of kindergarten teachers, and many schools do not offer it. In fact, kindergarten teachers are also called preschool education. Preschool education not only includes kindergarten teachers, but also has a wider learning range than kindergarten teachers. Therefore, students of this major do not have to be kindergarten teachers; You can also go to some parent-child institutions, early education centers, or start your own business.

At the same time, male kindergarten teachers are scarce, and many kindergartens need men to teach them, so it may be easier for male kindergarten teachers to find jobs.
