With the rapid evolution of human society, the earth finally became a "village", and under the condition of globalization, the challenges to kids-training we will face are, How to guide the children to adapt this inter-associated and interdependence world? How to "identify themselves" in multi-cultural background? In the days of cultural exchange, as adults, we are responsible to make our children not only have a global perspective, but also understand their own cultural background. When kids are young, the picture books for the young kids training shoulder the task to guide the kids to form their own world view. When children prefer to wait for Santa Claus to ask the question why we eat Zong Zi on Dragon Boat Festival; When children are obsessed with Snow White and Ultraman but forget Nezha,Great Sage Equaling Heaven gradually, We find that the lack of domestic original picture books has seriously separated the relationship between kids and cultures of the mainland. If we can not deliver and keep the life philosophy and mythology system of our nation in our own way, it will break the "interaction" relationship between kids and mainland cultures, so it will naturally make them turn a blind eye to the mainland cultures around them. If the culture can not spread in new generation, it is going to die. Children's literature writer Cao Wenxuan expressed during a lecture in Shenzhen, "Although the emotions of human beings are in common in the pictures, we cannot rely on how much the foreign picture books can carry with our national cultural content。This is an implicit cultural anxiety." So how to express the traditional view to children vividly is also the urgent need to seek balance under the present imbalances. The folk fine art is a product of farming landscape, "but as a social and cultural gene, it could infiltrate into our modern society and the information society..." we need to be awake to realize that we need to establish a bottom-up pride, identity and cohesion to renew our own emotions media.This article is to expurgate the picture books situation in Chinese market, and discuss the feasibility to introduce the folk fine art into the children's picture books, and the article will research the material methods from the angle of creative exploringly through the analysis of feasibility. We are all looking forward to awake the mainland framers and the interrelated organizations to re-know the practical significance of modern picture books, to explore the methods of the folk fine art elements involved in picture book for children, and finally to make the folk art rebirth on the multicultural platform, so we can give children a chance to know the traditional cultural. This is the professional ethics of each practitioner, and the way to make a beautiful bridge for world kids to know China.
