Preschool education is mainly aimed at children aged 0-6. In universities, this major is mainly set up in the College of Education. Preschool education in a broad sense refers to the conservation education of children from birth to 6 or 7 years old. Preschool education in a narrow sense refers to the care and education of children aged 3-6 or 7.

Different countries divide preschool children differently. Some countries are from 2 years old to 5 or 6 years old, while others are from birth to 5, 6 or 7 years old. Before the age of 3 is an important stage of children's physical and mental development, which is closely related to the education of children aged 3-6. Therefore, some scholars think it is appropriate to call it preschool education.
