Abstract:The picture of playful kids, an embodiment of Chinese folklore and traditional culture, expresses people's love for life and aspiration for human virtues. This paper expounds on the originality of "Qingyun Style", which well reinterprets Chinese folklore with a childlike heart by extracting from Chinese folk culture the images of playful kids as its subjects and freezing

their moments of innocence and pleasure in ceramic art works.

Key words:folklore; folk culture; picture of playful kids; childhood innocence; childhood pleasure; Qingyun Style
