Well, with an equal amount of respect, it's not really up to you to tell what Kindergartens "should do" now, is it?
And, for the record, it's been scientifically proven that the more you "teach" young children, the higher their IQ later in life.
Sure, send your own child to a playschool if you want. But don't tell me that a Kindergarten I may choose "should do fingerpainting and dots to dots". I would gladly teach my kids about Greek & Roman civilization (kids love that stuff), "space and rockets", and dinosaurs, and problem solving and anything else I think will do them good. Your kids can muck around in paint and sand and goo if you want them to.
