The Guiding Outline of Kindergarten Education points out that kindergartens must put the protection of children's lives and the promotion of children's health at the top of their work. Establish a correct concept of health, attach great importance to children's mental health while attaching importance to their physical health. Practice has proved that not all education can promote human development. Some education has little effect on people's physical and mental development, and some education can not only make people's physical and mental health develop, but will hinder people's normal development. In order to make education promote human development, we must correctly understand the relationship between education and human physical and mental development.
There are five fields in kindergarten education: health, language, society, science and art, and health is at the forefront, which shows the importance of infant health education in infant education and infant development. Kindergarten education is an important part of basic education and the basic stage of school education and lifelong education in China. It is very important to lay a solid physical foundation for them in early childhood.
As an educational institution with dual tasks of conservation and education, health education has a special position in kindergarten curriculum. Through learning in the field of health, children can acquire knowledge and attitudes related to their own health, others' health and social health, and form good behaviors and habits. Experimental research shows that regular health education for children can promote the growth of children's health knowledge and help improve their behavior habits. Regular health education can enrich children's health knowledge and improve the formation rate of healthy behavior. Moreover, the growth rate of weight, the improvement of VC nutritional status, the increase of hemoglobin, the decrease of anemia rate and the control of dental caries have all achieved certain results.
For children, health is the first important thing. Children are in a period of rapid growth and development. Because their physical and mental development is not perfect, their adaptability to various natural and social environments is poor. Their resistance to illness and psychological stress is weak. Therefore, whether they can get protection and education is not only related to their healthy growth now, but also to their life.
