In this paper, we investigated information transmitted through kindergarten websites including contents, the number of pages, the number of kindergartens, and the rate of kindergartens. Consequently, there are the following features: the number of pages which contain information on kindergarten websites increased in fiscal year 2005 by about 300% compared with fiscal year 2000. Moreover, the rate of information about a "child" increased from 84.9% in FY2000 to 90.8% of FY2005. An increase of information about "annual events" and "everyday activities" was high compared with FY2000 and FY2005. Information of kindergarten websites is available for both parents of prospective and students and currently enrolled students. "Entrance date" increased from 21.7% to 49.8%, explanation of facilities increased from 37.7% to 57.6% and explanation of facilities increased from 10.6% to 29.4%. Kindergartens have begun to notice the importance of information on their websites and the effects the information has with parents. The rate of sending out information about "child-rearing support" has increased by 42.4%. Previously, it was information about after school care program and overtime childcare from the school board's websites. In recent years, the information was sourced from the kindergarten websites.
