This paper discusses the characteristics of family health education for preschool children.

A: Family education refers to the education and influence exerted by parents (mainly parents or other elders) on preschool children in family life. China has a fine tradition of attaching importance to early family education. In the contemporary era of socialist modernization, family education has attracted more attention from the state and society. The first environment that children come into contact with in the process of birth and growth is family, which is also the basis for the establishment and development of parent-child relationship. From birth to school, there is a close relationship with family, so family has a great influence on children during this period.

Family education for preschool children has its own characteristics:

First, education takes the lead. Children's education from birth to preschool is carried out in the family, so it can be said that family education has certain initiative.

The second is independence. This feature is more prominent in the family environment of the only child.

The third is randomness and randomness. What to teach children in the family and how to teach them are influenced by some factors in the family, and education is more casual; Family education is accompanied by family life, so it is random.

The fourth is affection. Children establish parent-child relationship with their parents in the process of growing up, and then develop into intimate relationship. Parents' education for their children is influenced by intimacy, which sometimes leads to emotional feelings for their children.

The fifth is persistence. The children have reached the age of entering the park, but family education has been going on and never stopped.

The sixth is richness. Children's family education covers a wide range. In different family living environments, communication relationships and lifestyles, children can get different educational information and life experiences, and learn some behavioral norms and life skills.

The above characteristics of family education can show the strength and advantages of early childhood education under the guidance of correct outlook on life, world and education. However, in a family, both parents' ideological morality, quality training, educational level and health status are in a bad state, which will have bad educational consequences for children. As pre-school educators, we should not only learn how to impart knowledge and skills to pre-school children, but also learn how to help parents educate their children well and understand the operating rules of family education.
