Education is a cultural phenomenon. Different education reflects different social and cultural connotations. Along with the rapid development of society, economy, politics, culture, science and technology, people gradually found the potentiality of education, especially children education. Many nations of the world had started to study advantages of children education in other nations to make up for the educational shortage of their own countries. Children educational reform becomes one of the tendencies of the era. Due to the different cultural backgrounds, values, and nation’s condition, great differences of children education have been found to exist between the two countries--China and America. Two kinds of education reflect different attitudes towards knowledge. China’s education is the reflection of static acceptance of the knowledge, and American education is the reflection of the dynamic changes of knowledge.
