Under the background of Exam-Oriented Education, the social understanding of Labor Education is generally insufficient, and the traditional labor courses is mainly includes manual labor such as cleaning and agricultural work, which is relatively single, Therefore, problems such as school sites, teachers and curriculum resources of labor education in primary and secondary schools have become prominent, and it is difficult for in-school teaching to adapt to the sudden introduction of teaching policies to meet the learning needs of students receiving labor education in schools every week. Under this social background, the "Baby Love Labor" team takes the development of manual labor courses for children aged 3-12 as the research goal, and aims to shape labor values and craftsman spirit. It combines national crafts and local crafts to develop manual labor courses that combine labor art and make life interesting, supporting with the production of labor picture book stories and manual labor loose leaf manual, manual labor materials package and online teaching resources. It is hoped that this study can provide a solution for primary schools to carry out the labor education curriculum combining science and practice, teaching, learning and doing worry-free.
