Education for life (EFL) builds individuals' awareness of survival, life, death, life emotions and value. Education for life for young children not only initially improves young children's concepts of various aspects of life and lays the foundation for healthy and free growth but also promotes the coordinated development of their body and mind. As an important genre of children's literature, picture books serve as an effective means to conduct education for life for young children. Education for life for young children still has great room for development and exploration. Kindergartens have experienced a series of problems in the process of practicing the concept of education for life. Therefore, based on a summary and review of existing studies and through methods such as interviews, this study explores how to combine picture books and education for life for young children more effectively.
