Shanghai's public demonstration kindergartens have always been in short supply of places, and the Municipal Experimental Kindergarten is one of them. Founded in 1952, Shanghai Experimental Kindergarten is one of the first public kindergartens in Shanghai. The experimental kindergarten is based on health education, with a total of 34 classes, divided into two school buildings, Xingshan Garden and Sunshine Garden, which is the base park of the Ministry of Education's "garden-based teaching and research system construction" project, the national 0~3-year-old infant early care and development project base park, the national health education base park, and the base park of the China Society of Creative Education, which has a great influence in the preschool education industry in Shanghai and even in the whole country.
Shanghai Experimental Kindergarten covers an area of 7,300 square meters, with a wide outdoor activity venue, with green lawns, lush wisteria, cool corridors, plastic playgrounds, climbing walls, sand pools, plantations, multi-material paths, slides, electric amusement equipment, etc., it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a small amusement park. The classroom is a two-storey duplex structure, integrating children's activities and life. The garden has a reading room, a construction room, a creative room, a cooking room, an exploration room and other activity rooms.
Health education is the characteristic of the real child, and the real child carries out health education in life, sports, learning, games, field activities, etc. At the beginning of entering the kindergarten, the kindergarten invited doctors to carry out health lectures for new children, prepare healthy recipes and other materials for parents, and give weight loss suggestions to overweight children. In addition, there are lectures on health tea culture and epidemic disease prevention. In response to the problem of myopia and early age, Shiyoung has taken a series of measures to correct children's vision, such as regular eye examinations for children and the establishment of kindergarten vision correction files.

In addition to the fresh ingredients and rich combinations, the food will adjust the diet according to the season and temperature changes, and at the same time publish the menu to reassure parents. For parents, foreign language teaching and rich extracurricular activities are the plus points of kindergarten, and children's health is the most important and basic aspect.
