Abstract
The Principles of Children's Education and the Teaching Pact are the concentrated embodiment of Wang yangming's children's education thoughts and the practice of his theory of "agreement between knowledge and action". Through reading these two articles carefully, we can know Wang Yangming's thoughts on Children's education. Wang believed that the main task of children's education was to cultivate one's moral character, put forward three principles: freedom, understanding and practice, and formulated the concrete education implementation plan.
