Let our baby love reading.

My child is just an ordinary child, and even many aspects of skills are not as good as other children of the same age; I'm just an ordinary mother. Because I can't raise my children wholeheartedly, I often fall into trouble and guilt.

However, my children and I have a common hobby, that is, parent-child reading every night.

Take this opportunity to encourage all mothers you know or don't know to cultivate a baby who loves reading.

First, cultivate children's reading habits:

My children regard books as their best friends and toys from birth. I started reading independently after I was two and a half years old. The happiest time every day is bedtime story time.

Four months before the baby was born, from a medical point of view, the baby began to hear, and the child's father insisted on reading to the child he had never met for half an hour every night.

When is the right time to cultivate children's reading habits? Now Now, it is not too late.

There are no children who don't like stories and no parents who don't love children. With love, persistence and touching stories, every child will fall in love with reading.

Cultivating children to love reading is a long-term task: in our family for several years, children seldom watch TV before going to bed, because modern media are really everywhere. Although TV can also teach children to learn some knowledge, once children fall in love with TV, it is difficult for them to fall in love with reading again. I think TV is a double-edged sword, which must be effectively controlled and guided, otherwise it will have a very great negative impact.

Second, my feelings:

For reading, I have three deep experiences.

First, the story can tell children something that is difficult to explain clearly: my child's grandmother died many years ago. About death, we didn't directly describe it to my child, but he liked two books very much, namely Dear Grandma Rabbit and Goodbye Mog. Both of these books are in English. I found them coincidental. Coincidentally, my children like listening to English stories inside. I didn't explain much to him. He learned about death through repeated listening. Although he didn't understand it as an adult, he understood it. Every time he listens to the story, he will say with emotion that my grandmother died, too. At this time, he was only two years old.

Second, books can cultivate children's good habits: The story of Kong Rong Jean Pear is a short story, but my children like it very much. He has been listening to this story since he was 65,438+0 years old. Up to now, whenever there is something delicious at home, he always thinks of giving it to his parents first. Sometimes parents' advice is not as useful as a short story.

Third, reading stories can enrich children's emotions: Rainbow Flowers in the World is my children's favorite book, and I have always liked it since I bought it at the age of one and a half. In the story, the rainbow flower gave its beautiful petals to every small animal in need, but it died in the cold winter, but in spring, its seeds germinated and grew into a rainbow flower. The story is not only beautiful in picture, but also touching in plot. It expresses a kind of reincarnation of life and the truth that good things last forever. But my children have a whole year, and every time they hear that flowers are dying, they cover their ears and say no. It was not until he was over 2 years old that he knew the whole story. The first time he listened to it, he had tears in his eyes and bit a towel before he persisted. I am very touched, and I am touched by the children. I think it is because of his love of reading that he has a richer emotional world than children of his age, and he can cry and dance with stories. Even kinder.

In fact, the benefits of reading are not only three, but also numerous. These are just the points that I feel most deeply.

Third, cultivate children's bilingual listening and speaking ability;

My child has just turned 3 years old, and the library at home has already reached a certain scale. Our reading is very miscellaneous, Chinese, English, popular science and fairy tales. If he reads 1 hour every day, he will have 365 hours of reading time every year, and he has at least 365 stories in his heart. Many people ask me why my children can understand and understand all English stories well, even complicated English stories like Andersen's fairy tales. I think the reason is simple, because I have been telling stories to my children every day since they were born. After two years old, the language of storytelling began to be different from Chinese and English. So for him, English and Chinese are the same language for telling stories. Children don't listen to language, but stories. Listening to English stories is to read more books and master and understand more cultures. Others asked me why my children can stick to life more than other children, insist on reading at a fixed time every day for several years, and even go out for a trip or go back to their hometown for the New Year. I think everything is because of love, because I love children, so when children have a hobby of reading, children's persistence becomes parents' persistence. I often help my child look up the dictionary after he falls asleep, correct his pronunciation and prepare an English story to read tomorrow. When the child asks, Mom, why do I read old books every day? I have to carefully select all kinds of books for him in the vast sea of books. Raising children is even more tiring than the work itself. But this is the happiest fatigue of every mother.

Fourth, a good book to share with you:

Taking this opportunity, I think all our mothers can enjoy some good books read by their mothers. I recommend the following books: children's reading 100 key issues; How to make children like reading; Create a reading environment for children; Find the mother; Carl. Witt's education; Cultivate children's English ears; Enter the children's graffiti world; I am five years old, and my English is better than yours. Baby is stronger than me; Love and freedom.

For books recommended for babies of all ages, please refer to 100 Key Problems in Children's Reading. There is a detailed recommended catalogue in it.

Let's immerse ourselves in the wonderful sea of books with the baby.

Five, my expectations for children:

To tell you the truth, I don't expect much from my children's achievements after entering school. I only hope that the habit of reading can run through his life. To tell you the truth, I am not very satisfied with the education system in China. From primary school to senior three, I spent 12 years studying for the college entrance examination. China's extensive and profound Chinese studies are very limited. I spent 65,438+02 learning foreign languages, namely dumb English and deaf English. I hope that children can easily cope with their studies and do not need to be top-notch. However, if you want to have enough time to read your favorite books, you must read four books and five classics. You must be well aware of the five thousand years, and you should also be familiar with astronomy and geography.

1 Only with profound knowledge can you make your mind really strong. In the long life in the future, once you encounter setbacks or bumps, you can have the spirit of "reaching the top, the other mountains all appear dwarfs under the sky.". . Historical figures, such as Sima Qian writing historical records in prison, and Deng Xiaoping thinking about China's way out in the bullpen. What are the minor setbacks of ordinary people?

I hope my children have a very rich spiritual world. In the future society, their generation will not live in an era of material poverty, and the richness of the spiritual world will be more important. Whether a person is happy or not depends more on his inner experience. I hope he will be "rich and expensive" even if he lives in a humble abode in the future.

In the noisy modern society, I can insist on reading such hobbies, and always calm down to understand my inner needs and what my real hobbies and pursuits are. I believe that people who love reading must be more calm than ordinary people and find their own spiritual destination. Reading can cultivate noble sentiments, which is my expectation for children.

Sixth, the misunderstanding of cultivating children's reading:

1. Cultivate children to learn to read, but make them hate reading. If parents don't like reading themselves, it must be no fun to force their children to read as if they had completed a task every day. At the beginning, parents can find some books with the same hobbies as their children. Slowly, parents' childlike innocence will be awakened and they will really fall in love with this short reading time every day. Only when parents really like reading can children fall in love with reading.

2. A large number of people can read but can't: This is a common misunderstanding among parents in China. I know many parents online. When children are 4 years old or even younger, they are taught thousands of words in various ways. Both children and parents spend a lot of energy on boring literacy, while children's independent reading ability has not improved. Many of these children only know a lot of Chinese characters but can't understand the simplest sentences in the article. You know, literacy is only a means, and reading is the purpose. All children will know thousands of Chinese characters when they are 8 years old, but not every 8-year-old child will love reading. Instead of spending a lot of energy on literacy, it is better to spend some time teaching children to read. Children's literacy education should be to learn Chinese characters independently on the basis of loving reading, rather than simply learning Chinese characters from the content of the article. We never take the initiative to teach our children to learn Chinese characters, but my children learn a lot of Chinese characters in their own reading every day, and even they can read some simple stories by themselves before they are three years old.

3. Reading has become the only means of learning: a certain learning plan can be interspersed in the reading plan, and the educational content of each parent for their children can vary from person to person. But if you are eager for success, it will inevitably affect the fun of reading and long-term persistence. You know, the real purpose of reading at a fixed time every day is not to learn some knowledge, but to cultivate reading hobbies and cherish this parent-child time. Once you have this hobby, children will have a lifetime to learn what they want to learn, but once this hobby becomes the only purpose of learning, children will begin to hate learning, which will be the most worthwhile.

I love my child, and if I have the ability, I am willing to give him everything he wants in the world. But I don't have this ability. As long as I cultivate his love of reading, I can tell him everything he wants to know all over the world. Through books, we can travel around the world, from heaven to earth, seventy-two changes.

I quote A Jia, the founder of the Red Mud Book Club, as a conclusion: When you fall in love with reading, you will learn both the way of love and the love itself, and you will know how to love yourself, others, life and the world, which makes you omnipotent!
