Exploring the way to integrate traditional festivals into early childhood education

Traditional festival culture, with its long-standing heritage and profound cultural significance, plays a vital role in early childhood education. Integrating this cultural heritage into preschool curricula helps cultivate children's moral development and fosters the proper formation of their worldview, values, and life philosophy. This paper first examines the importance and significance of incorporating traditional festival education into early childhood programs. It then identifies challenges in implementing such cultural education for young learners, concluding with practical strategies for effectively integrating traditional festivals into early childhood education practices.
