Therefore, in order to implement the training on children's scientific literacy is proposed in the paper, first of all, to improve the level of scientific literacy of kindergarten teachers, only kindergarten teachers' scientific literacy in a certain height, can be better on early childhood science literacy training, in order to realize the of all citizens scientific literacy. It is necessary to raise the scientific literacy of kindergarten teachers.In this study, the scientific literacy is divided into four dimensions: scientific knowledge, scientific ability, scientific attitude and the role of Science in society, and as a scientific literacy survey of the 4 first level indicators, the corresponding scientific literacy questionnaire was developed.Based on the Qingdao area, this study conducted a questionnaire survey on the network of 276 kindergarten teachers and preschool education majors.The study found that kindergarten teachers' scientific literacy overall average of 6.1548points(full marks for 8 minutes), with scientific attitude and scientific level of the social role of two dimensions is higher, respectively 1.725, 1.8043, general scientific knowledge level performance, is 1.474, and scientific ability level obviously low of 1.151.
