The purpose of this study is to clarify the speciality of today's preschool teachers who support children's growth and assist their parents. It analyzed the teachers' ability to construct a common psychological basis between children and preschool teachers focusing on the collective care. The methodology was based on inter-subjective participatory observation. The result revealed five characteristics of physical knowledge: "resonance by rhythms of words," "resonance by the direction of a body," "resonance by the shape of a body," "resonance by movements and rhythms of a body," and "expanding resonance by movements and rhythms of a body." A preschool teacher's "intelligent sensitivity" has a great role in furthering a child's ability to merge these five characteristics. Such an intelligent sensitivity is one of the essential specialities for today's preschool teachers and it will be necessary to activate it for future childcare.
