Tao Xingzhi criticized the three disadvantages of preschool education institutions in major cities of China in the early 20th century.
Tao Xingzhi criticized early childhood education institutions in major cities in China in the early 20th century for having three chronic diseases: foreign diseases, spending money diseases and having money diseases.

First of all, build kindergartens suitable for the national conditions. Mr. Tao analyzed and studied the national conditions of China at that time, and pointed out that 8% of the population in China lived in rural areas, the rural economy was shrinking, farmers were extremely poor, and their culture was backward. Kindergartens are most needed in rural areas, and it is imperative for kindergartens to move to rural areas, no doubt. However, kindergartens must be fundamentally reformed to adapt to China's national conditions before they can go to the countryside.

Secondly, we should train teachers in our own country to teach children in our own country, and after considerable training, we should select one or two talented and compassionate women from our village to be teachers in rural kindergartens. The third way is to use the handicraft department of our village primary school and the craftsmen of our village to imitate toys and do a good job in education with less money.

Third, the construction of private kindergartens. Tao Xingzhi pointed out that only wealthy children can enjoy expensive early childhood education, while ordinary children have no share. Therefore, he proposed to break the monopoly of the rich on kindergartens and build civilian kindergartens. In Tao Xingzhi's view, "kindergartens save money and charge cheaply. Children of civilians should enjoy equal opportunities. The teacher is brought from the countryside and is congenial to the life in the countryside, so it is easy to get close. These two things can be called kindergartens to go in the direction of civilians. "
