First of all it's a way to make children relate to their body. When I first saw my son doing it, it looked so much like ballet, which his older sister was doing. The advantage being that judo is far less embarrassing for a boy.
The other thing is that apart from learning how to fight their opponent they are also constantly admonished to protect him or her from receiving any serious wounds. Even in everyday school life it's enough to show your opponent that you are able to bring him down on his knees quite suddenly without having to inflict injuries.
