[Abstract]
Early childhood education can be tracked down thousands years ago in Chinese history. And thousands years later now, educational professionals hold different opinions on the question of whether we should do literacy education on children. For example, Mr. Da Jingshen recommends literacy education on children because he believes it is quite helpful for children’s intelligence development, but another professor Mr. J.J Rousseau is on the contrary.
Reviewing our former children’s education program, we did not find any requirements of literacy education. So it is commonplace why there were few kindergartens doing literacy education. And till recent years, some kindergartens in China begin doing literacy education of Chinese Characters on children, by the great influence of China’s further reform, maturity of market economy and some advanced theories and experiences in literacy education from overseas.
Under the circumstance of more and more kindergartens begin doing literacy education, we need know “what are parents’ opinions?” and “how do they think of Early Literacy education?” According to this investigation report, we will generally know parents’ attitude of early literacy education, and meanwhile, there are some author’s opinions on Early Literacy Education.
