Abstract：The long term objective of education is for the future of children. Hence，education must be based on the biology of child development and follow the mechanism and characteristics of child growth. A great deal of knowledge on child growth and development is being accumulated thanks to the rapid expansion of life science research. It is understood that scientific research on the early child growth and development will provide important information to the nurture and education of children. Moreover，interdisciplinary scientific research has made a lot of progress；therefore the concept of bio-education has gained increasing acceptance. Education，as an important driving force and advocate for child development，has not been closely connected with life science，namely developmental biology and developmental pediatrics for a long period of time. Therefore，it will be helpful to develop educational ideas，mechanisms and approaches that are more consistent with the rules and characteristics of child development. In conclusion，educational science must be evidence-based. Its advance may benefit from learning the footsteps of the advancement in developmental pediatrics，which has a solid life science basis.
