1632, Comenius published the book "School for Mothering in the Province", which was the first time in human history to formulate a detailed education outline for children under 6 years old, which was one of his great achievements. In fact, he was also one of the earliest educators and thinkers who studied family education.

Comenius believes that family is the first school for children, family education is the primary stage of school education, and parents are the first teachers for children, especially mothers have special responsibilities and obligations for children's education. Children should be more precious and amiable than gold, silver and jewels. Children are a mirror, so we don't forget the virtues of modesty, kindness, kindness and coordination. "

In the parenting school, Comenius follows the principle of children's nature, and thinks that the content of education should be from simple to complex, from the training of feeling (sight, hearing, taste and touch) to the cultivation of religious belief, forming a gradient and step by step; Educational methods should be simple, flexible and easy to operate. He attaches great importance to children's moral cultivation, including 12, and his demands are well-founded, from diet to religious etiquette.
