Life Meaning Education in Kindergartens
A philosopher once said, "What is really valuable to a child is his surroundings." Kindergarten culture is the soul of kindergarten development.

As a special social and cultural phenomenon, it represents a kind of ethos, embodies a kind of harmony and breeds an educational force. It has a subtle and far-reaching influence on children's outlook on life, which is often irreplaceable by any course. Therefore, strengthening the construction of kindergarten culture plays a decisive role in improving the cultural taste of kindergartens and is of unspeakable importance to the macro-development of kindergartens. The research on "the construction of kindergarten culture with cultivating life consciousness as the core" aims to guide children to appreciate the richness and preciousness of life, know how to cherish and respect life, and constantly create the value of life by exploring the ways and methods of kindergarten culture construction that are suitable for the characteristics of our school and meet the needs of life education.

The cultivation of life consciousness is the starting point of life education. Its connotation mainly includes the cultivation of survival awareness, safety awareness, time awareness, group awareness and environmental awareness. The formation process of life consciousness is: consciousness edification → behavior training → behavior adjustment → consciousness silence. Kindergarten is an important place to inherit and develop culture, especially teachers and students in kindergarten, and it is also a living carrier of kindergarten culture. Therefore, every activity in the whole kindergarten life should be permeated with the cultural atmosphere of life consciousness. In the new round of experimental activities of curriculum reform, our school has strengthened the construction of kindergarten culture in middle schools, so that kindergarten curriculum reform can be carried out in a strong cultural atmosphere, and the construction of kindergarten culture with life consciousness is undoubtedly the internal driving force to promote the scientific, orderly and healthy development of curriculum reform in our school.

First, cultivate people with the environment and create a life-oriented kindergarten cultural atmosphere.

The dynamic kindergarten cultural environment has an important influence on people's development. Owen said, "Environment determines people's language, religion, cultivation, habits, ideology and behavior." A healthy and harmonious kindergarten culture can create a tangible and solemn psychological "magnetic field" for teachers and students, virtually control the souls of all teachers and students, and exert the educational charm of "moistening things quietly". Our school recognizes the importance of kindergarten culture and pays attention to strengthening the construction of kindergarten culture, making it the radiation source of quality education, the energy bank of life education and the silent textbook.

Second, offering characteristic courses of "life education" to improve the cultural taste of characteristic kindergartens.

Tagore said: "The purpose of education should be to convey the breath of life to people." The value of life is first based on the existence of life, and on this basis, the value of life can be developed and promoted. As the guardian of children's growth, kindergartens should not only care about children's knowledge acquisition and spiritual growth, but also stop any behavior that may harm children's lives and teach children to protect their own lives. In fact, middle-aged children are often killed and their lives are hurt. Therefore, it is necessary to cultivate children's awareness of life safety so that they can better protect themselves and others' lives; Educating them to cherish life is not equal to selfishness; Guiding them to establish a correct concept of life safety has become an urgent task of current education. In recent years, based on the reality of kindergartens, our school takes life education as the starting point, and strives to build a humanized and energetic kindergarten culture and enhance the cultural taste of kindergartens. In the process of creating a life education environment, we should create a cultural atmosphere of life education in kindergartens based on the material environment, supported by system construction and centered on spiritual guidance, which is "the intersection of science and humanities, and the interaction of reason and passion". According to children's physiological and psychological characteristics, we have also developed a series of life education themes and formed a school-based curriculum for life education. The teaching and research section organized some teachers to compile school-based life education textbooks such as Understanding Life, Cherishing Life, Respecting Life and Surpassing Life, Life Movement and Life Education (teachers' readers).

We get rid of the traditional education mode and rely on the knowledge system of "life consciousness" in subject teaching to cultivate life classroom and mobilize all teachers to participate in and pay attention to the development of life education activities. Infiltrate life education organically in teaching, and strive to combine knowledge education with life education, so that children can constantly understand the meaning of the world and the meaning of life while accepting knowledge; Let children have the ability to experience life while gaining and accumulating experience. Kindergarten head teachers and classroom teachers can arrange life education in the education and teaching plan, contact life education research materials, design life education when preparing lessons, embody life education in teaching, involve life education in class evaluation and study life education in teaching and research, so that life education can become a common practice in kindergarten teaching activities and make life education and curriculum reform scientifically integrated.

Third, strengthen the cultural construction of life education kindergartens with activities as the carrier.

A prominent feature of life education is that in real life, it is not mainly expressed through language or theory, but mostly through behavior, which shocks people's minds and cultivates their personality. Therefore, it is an effective educational means to combine life education with vivid and concrete kindergarten cultural activities. We combine major events, traditional festivals and statutory festivals to carry out a variety of theme activities in a targeted and effective manner.

By integrating children's physical exercise and contact with nature into life education, children can better understand the meaning of life and perceive life.

According to the development of society and the demand of children's all-round education, Qingrui Education has created a characteristic high-quality park model: sports fitness park, life education park and nature education park, which promotes the all-round development of children's comprehensive quality and physical and mental health. Adapt to the needs of the development of kindergarten education in today's society.

The life education of Qingrui Education, creating a characteristic and high-quality garden model, is an emotional wisdom education. Through the exploration of the essence of life, let the educated feel the beauty, magic and wisdom of life, experience the beauty of life, respect and care for life, form self-confidence and indomitable courage in life, cultivate positive emotions, understand the value and significance of life, and lay a lifelong foundation for a meaningful life in the future.

Starting from the exploration of the nature of life, let children know and respect life, affirm self-worth, cultivate gratitude, bravely face challenges, and strive to care for themselves, others and the world. Children's life education is not the accumulation of knowledge, but a kind of "awakening", which is the internal motivation to awaken children's self-development. Arouse innate nature, give them more time and space of their own, make their lives more independent, and let them freely show their vitality in education.

Qingrui Education's life education, which is to create a characteristic and high-quality garden model, is to help children understand life, feel the beauty of life, cultivate the ability to love and be loved, cultivate the quality of respecting life and learning to be grateful, and then realize the common development and harmony with themselves, society, others and nature.
