The purposes of this study were to design the positive emotion education curricula and to understand their effects. For these purposes， the subjects of this study were two classes of the first-grade students from an elementary school. 54 students were taken as subjects. This study was conducted by a quasi-experimental design using the pretest-posttest unequal groups. The experimental group received positive emotion education courses while the control group education received story-telling programs. Several methods were used in this study， including observation， inventory， interview， and documents analysis. The results were summarized as follows: 1. The programs of “gratitude” and “contentment” could elevate children’s positive emotion， which is perceived through the post-test subscale scores. 2. The program of “confidence” could motivate children to develop self-esteem. 3. The program of “contentment” could motivate children to develop spiritual growth. 4. The program of “gratitude” could motivate children to develop positive thinking. Finally， the researchers made conclusions and recommendations based on their findings.
