Closeness, Careness and Harmony: Exploring the Path of Ocean Curriculum Development in Kindergartens - Taking Nezha as an Example

LIN Lan, LUO Yiwen

Abstract: Marine culture is not only a representative of China’s excellent traditional culture, but also a valuable resource for promoting the quality development of contemporary marine education. At present, there is a general lack of marine awareness among Chinese people, and it is particularly important to promote marine awareness. As kindergarten is the beginning stage of life education and the foundation stage for the formation of life view, world view and values, more attention should be paid to the cultivation of Chinese young children’s marine awareness. In this paper, we take the traditional sea narrative “Nezha Fights the Sea” as an example, and analyze the story paths of “closeness” “careness” “harmony” and so on, which are conveyed in the narrative, in order to find a way to promote Chinese children's awareness of the sea. In this paper, we analyze the story path of “Ne Zha Follies the Sea” and explore the new ideas for the development of contemporary kindergarten marine curriculum.
