Abstract: This qualitative research aimed to study Chinese language learning process and reflection in
learning Chinese of early childhood based on the theory of Constructivism. The target group
included 15 third year kindergarten students, 2nd semester of the 2016 academic year,
Waraneekul Kindergarten School, Saraphee District, Chiang Mai Province.The research is
qualitative based on the paradigm of interpretation. The tools are Chinese language lesson plans
for third year kindergarten of Waraneekul Kindergarten School, total of five subjects (numbers,
parts of the body, animals, the sky, family), each with two totally ten lesson plans and interview
forms of self-knowledge creation process on each subject individually.The results showed that
the Chinese language learning process of early childhood was derived from previous experience,
prior knowledge together with new experience and new knowledge. This makes it possible to
acquire a unique process of creating knowledge of the learners depending on the interaction with
the surrounding things. Moreover, Chinese is the language that comes from pictures which
enable early learners to imagine different images depending upon their individual background,
leading to different reflection on their thought, culture, values, and the use of language in
accordance with Vygotsky’s theory of Social Constructivism.
