Preschool period is the fastest and most important period of human cognition development. It is found that 2-3 years old is the key period for individual oral development. 4-6 years old is the best time for children to visually recognize images and form shape perception; 3 ~ 5.5 years old is the best age to master the concept of number; 5-6 years old is the fastest time for children to master vocabulary. Preschool period is also a critical period for the formation of important non-intellectual qualities such as curiosity, thirst for knowledge, imagination and creativity.
