Traditional Moral Education of Preschool Children in China
Within China’s ongoing policy of reform and openness to the outside world, it has become of particular importance to respect traditional moral upbringing of Chinese preschool children. Documents published by the government and the Ministry of education of China explain in detail the content of traditional moral upbringing of children, specific standards of conduct. Preschool education in the course of historical practices successfully tested such methods of traditional moral upbringing of children, as education based on best practices, environment, interaction through play, educational activities, knowledge of the national classical literary works. The study of modern educational activities in kindergartens have shown that moral upbringing of preschool children is steadily growing, however, in the course of its implementation, there are problems associated with fragmentation, formalization of the educational process, ineffective methods of mastering the knowledge and the vagueness of learning outcomes. To maintain and successfully implement the traditional moral upbringing of Chinese preschool children is possible through continuous improvement of content, forms and methods of education, targeted training of pedagogical staff and scientific research in this direction.
