What is the concept of children in preschool education?
The concept of children in preschool education refers to the views or opinions that society views and treats children. These include the characteristics of children, the significance, rights and status of childhood, and the relationship between education and children's development.

In a sense, the concept of children can be divided into three forms: the concept of children in the form of social dominance, the concept of children in the form of academic theory and the concept of children in the form of mass ideology. Literally, the view of children under the social dominant form is the view of children held by the dominant person; The view of children in the form of academic theory is the view of children held by scholars; What the public thinks of children is what the general public thinks of children.

The three are not isolated, but the relationship of mutual penetration and influence. The view of children in the social dominant form and the view of children in the academic theoretical form should directly influence children through the view of children in the mass ideology. At the same time, the view of children in the form of academic theory plays a vital role in these three aspects. To some extent, the academic view of children can guide, support and correct the other two views of children.

It is very necessary for preschool educators to understand the concept of children in the form of academic theory. In other words, preschool educators (in a broad sense) need a modern view of children. The modern concept of children stems not so much from denying the history of predecessors as from their thoughts.
