This study investigated the current situations of the Chinese traditional culture education in China's kindergartens. A total of nine hundred 900 teachers from different ranked kindergartens in six province and one municipality were selected for questionnaires, on-site observation and interviews. The education practices in the seven kindergartens of the two cities were observed on sites. The students and their parents or grandparents were interviewed. This study demonstrated that the concept of Chinese traditional culture education is not clear among the groups selected for study; the teachers are not well versed in Chinese traditional culture; the education activities lack diversity; and the integrality of the education is weak. In order to develop the Chinese traditional culture education, it was recommended that the concept of traditional culture education should be established academically; the goal of the education should be set appropriately; a rich content of the education should be selected and the diverse resources of traditional culture education should be integrated.
