Kindergarten environment, like teachers, is stimulating to children's cognition, which makes children in a positive state of inquiry, using materials, finding problems and solving problems in various attempts, so as to gain an understanding of the world; Kindergarten environment is also a key factor in the interaction between children, children and adults, and children and objects, which has a potential and profound impact on children's social development.

1. Promote children's cognitive development

Watson of behavioral psychology believes that human behavior is "stimulus-response connection, through which we can predict the response and through which we can predict the stimulus". Children's cognition is constantly developing in the process of interaction with the surrounding environment. As a stimulating condition for children's development, kindergarten environment can purposefully shape some behaviors and habits of children. Once the kindergarten environment has a clear direction. It can influence or promote the development of children in specific aspects. For example, in corner activities, the teacher reminds the number of people in the corner through small footprints on the floor. The creation of this ground is the expectation of children's behavior, which implies that the number of people entering the corner is consistent with the number of footprints. Obviously, in this case, the environment can replace the teacher's instructions and become a reminder of behavior habits.

According to children's learning interest and content, we can display learning content or achievements in the corridors and classrooms of kindergartens, or create problem situations in the environment, stimulate children's interest through the environment, present learning content, and extend learning activities, thus giving play to its intervention function.

For example, in the theme activity of "Our Animal Friends", children sort out the animal pictures and models collected by themselves and their parents and display them around the classroom, which makes people feel like they are in the animal world, thus stimulating children's desire to explore independently. In addition, children use various materials, such as pebbles, bricks, shells, wood blocks and so on. Laying paths of different shapes in outdoor venues. Children feel smooth, rough, width, length, etc. By stepping on them with their feet and touching them with their hands, children's desire for independent activities in the interaction with the surrounding environment and materials is effectively aroused, thus stimulating their interest and desire for learning and exploration. 2. Promote children's social development.

The so-called socialization of children means that children gradually master social norms independently, correctly handle interpersonal relationships and properly manage themselves under certain social conditions, thus objectively adapting to the psychological development process of social life. The development of children's sociality is realized in certain environment.

The communication between children, children and teachers, children and things can not be separated from the support and intervention of the environment. Many aspects of kindergarten environment, such as the content of environment layout and the atmosphere it creates, the arrangement of activity space, the delivery of activity materials, etc., will affect the social development of children by affecting their emotional state and the number of contacts. For example, by dividing classrooms in kindergartens, it is convenient for children to study in groups with different numbers, making it easier for children to communicate, compete and cooperate with their peers, and it is also convenient for teachers to observe, listen and record; All kinds of tools, materials and equipment in the corner are placed where children can reach, so that children can choose their favorite materials there and explore and learn freely and wholeheartedly in their favorite posture; Set up a private space under the stairs, at the end of the corridor or in the corner of the kindergarten classroom, so that children can rest quietly in this small space, or talk to their peers, so that their hearts can be released or comforted, and so on. As malagu said: "Education is composed of complex interactive relationships, and only the participation of various elements in the' environment' is the decisive key to the realization of many interactive relationships."

In addition, in the process of creating an environment with teachers, peers and parents, children communicate and cooperate with their peers to express their frustration and depression when they encounter difficulties and problems, and their joy after completing the task. In this process, children gradually understand the norms and skills of interpersonal communication, and then gradually adapt to social life.
