China Central Television said that in January 2017 Qin Pengan stabbed the children with a vegetable knife in order to extract revenge for his life not going as he wanted and a dispute with a neighbour.
None of the children died from their injuries.
A local court in Pingxiang city in south China's Guangxi province sentenced Qin to death, and the sentence was carried out on 4 January after being approved by the China's Supreme People's Court, the broadcaster said.
