In recent years, our country has paid more attention to the development of the pre-school education industry. Although the industry is exhibiting a diversified development trend, the main forms of pre-school education in China still remain nurseries and kindergartens.

China’s nurseries provide care for babies under the age of three. There are day nurseries as well as boarding nurseries. Kindergartens enroll children from age three to six. Kindergartens combine childcare with teaching so that the children will develop physically, morally, intellectually and aesthetically in preparation for their formal school education.
