What is the purpose of preschool education?
1. The goal of kindergarten education in China is to "educate children to develop in an all-round way in physical, intellectual, moral and aesthetic aspects and promote their harmonious development of body and mind". This goal is the fundamental basis for determining the task of kindergarten education and evaluating the quality of kindergarten education. The state leads and regulates preschool education throughout the country.

2. The goal of early childhood education is put forward according to the educational purpose and the nature and characteristics of early childhood education. The goal of kindergarten education in China is to cultivate all-round children, which embodies the basic spirit of China's educational purpose and takes into account the nature and characteristics of preschool education. The goal of early childhood education is slightly different from that of school education, such as putting "body" in the first place, because in the early childhood, the normal development of the body and the sound development of its functions are more important than in the later stage.

3. The essence of education is to cultivate people, so whether the educational goal is reasonable depends not only on the social requirements, but also on whether it conforms to the law of physical and mental development of the educational object.

4. Pursue all aspects of development blindly and ignore children's all-round development, which may seriously destroy the natural process of children's growth and development, damage children's potential development, and cause slow development of body, intelligence, ability, personality and temperament in childhood, adolescence and even adulthood.
