Based on the panel data of China Rural Development Survey in 2016 and 2019， this paper analyzes the existence status of village kindergartens and its determinants using Probit， linear probability model （LPM） and binary selection random effects model （xtprobit） to， and further explores the effect of the establishment of village kindergartens on the preschoolers’ choices of enrollment locations. The results are as follows： 1） From 2016 to 2019， the proportion of villages with kindergartens remained at 30%， but the proportion of children aged 3~6 attending kindergartens increased from 86% to 91% during the same period. 2） The greater the number of preschoolers， the higher the likelihood of establishing kindergartens within the villages and this positive correlation is morepronounced in villages with a higher percentage of labor force with high school education or above， closer proximity to towns， relatively affluent， and located in plain areas. 3） The establishment of kindergartens in the village can significantly promote the preschoolers within village to attend the kindergartens located in village， which effectively alleviates the problems of long distance and high cost for rural preschool children to enroll in kindergartens. However， parents are not satisfied with the service quality of kindergartens located in village. These findings imply that it is necessary to innovate the service model of preschool education according to the number of preschoolers， with particular emphasis on providing policy support to educationally disadvantaged and remote rural kindergartens in the western mountainous regions. Additionally， the cooperation between family and school should be strengthened to improve the quality of rural kindergartens and lay the human capital foundation for sustainable economic and social development in China.
