Abstract: In view of current issues in kindergarten curricula, such as the disconnection between curricular content and children's life experiences, as well as insufficient practical implementation, the rescarch proposes principles for curriculum construction guided by the life-practice education. These principles include life-orientedness,practicality,child-centeredness, and developmentalappropriateness. Taking the shadow-play curriculum as a case study, the research elaborates a four-phase framework for curriculum development: In the preparatory stage, clarifying key issues in curriculum design; In the initial stage, establishing a top-level vision, plan and implementation strategy;In the middle stage,optimizing and deepening curriculum practices through evidence-based problem-solving; In the final stage: Synthesizing outcomes and refining achievements. This framework offers innovative insights and actionable paradigms for reforming kindergarten curricula.
