Abstract: Music education is an important part of early childhood education and an important content of art education. Good music education is conducive to the cultivation of children creativity, imagination and thinking ability, promoting coordinated development of children’s body and mind. Orff music teaching method takes original music as basic education concept, asking people to participate not as listeners, but as performers. In Orff music class, children can truly experience the art and realize the connection between music and dialogue, rhythm, drama, dance and even painting, sculpture and other arts. Orff music teaching method has been introduced into China for more than thirty years, and has achieved a certain development space in recent years. The Orff Professional Committee of China Association of Music and other organizations also conduct vigorous promotion. Nevertheless, Orff music teaching method has not been widely promoted in China, especially in small and medium-sized cities. Therefore, after various discoveries and analyses, the author proposes to increase the number of kindergarten teachers in the teacher structure, and improve their professional qualities and skills, such as learning and mastering 1 or 2 musical instruments. In addition, some practical theories on educational concepts have been introduced into music teaching of other age groups to stimulate students’ potential, enhance their enthusiasm for learning, and improve learning efficiency. Finally, the development of education is inseparable from financial investment. It can even be said that only on the basis of sufficient financial support can Orff’s music education be carried out in a comprehensive, systematic and multi-level manner in most cities in China.the author put forward practical suggestions on the structure of teachers, the implementation of their educational concepts in other education fields, and the investment of funds to effectively promote Orff’s early education in China.

Purpose: The author proposes to increase the number of kindergarten teachers in the teacher structure, and improve their professional qualities and skills, such as learning and mastering 1 or 2 musical instruments.
