Children’s eating habits are closely related to not only their own growth and development, but also their psychological development. In order to explore the influence of family status on the frequency of Western fast food eating for preschool children, this study selected five aspects of preschool education, including the cognitive level of adopters and family income, as the research dimension, and used SPSS software to analyze nearly 2000 groups of data. The study found that the low cognitive level of adopters in Western fast food behavior caused children to eat Western fast food more frequently. Children with high family income, decent parents, high educational level of parents and family living conditions had higher frequency of eating Western fast food. Finally, it is proposed to improve children’s dietary behavior by improving their dietary education, education ability and their own dietary behavior, developing diversified and interesting dietary health, health education activities, and strengthening the publicity of dietary education in kindergartens.
