Theoretical Basis and Realization Path of Early Childhood Ecological Education

Abstract

In today's ecological crisis, raising ecological awareness and shaping ecological civilization should be started from childhood, and the ecological education in early childhood stage focuses on enlightening young children to establish the ecological consciousness of harmonious coexistence between human and nature. The physical and mental development of young children's characteristics determine the ecological education of young children should follow the principle of organic whole, Whitehead's philosophy of organism also presents the ecological implications of organic whole, that is, the ecological implications of the harmonious coexistence of man and nature, as well as a kind of organic educational ideas, that is, pay attention to the process of education, organic, holistic. This is inherently compatible with the ecological education of young children, and brings value inspiration to the ecological education of young children. To realize an organic ecological education for young children, it is necessary to establish an organic ecological concept of harmonious symbiosis; to construct an organic ecological education content for young children that puts equal emphasis on knowledge, emotion, intention and action; to form an educational process that focuses on young children's life and practice; and to integrate the resources of kindergartens, families and the society to improve the synergistic mechanism of ecological education for young children.
