Abstract

The integration of intangible cultural heritage pyrography into the art curriculum of kindergartens has unique educational value. It is not only an important way to inherit the excellent traditional Chinese culture, but also can cultivate children's hands-on practical ability, aesthetic perception ability and creativity, and help children form cultural identity and national pride. In practice, it can be advanced through the synergy of explicit and implicit courses: The explicit courses are centered on the interesting pyrography experience, with simplified tool operation, pattern creation and other activities designed to suit the age characteristics of children; The implicit curriculum relies on environmental creation to build pyrographic-themed walls, display areas of works, and incorporate cultural connotations through storytelling, folk custom experience and other links. During the implementation, attention should be paid to issues such as avoiding tool safety risks and adapting to children's cognitive levels, which can be addressed by using safety-improved tools, designing stratified teaching objectives, and forming home-school co-education teams. This approach combines the inheritance of intangible cultural heritage with the cultivation of children's core literacy, provides new ideas for the innovation of art courses in kindergartens, and helps intangible cultural heritage take root in children's hearts.
