Several children were playing together, chattering about the birthday presents their parents gave them.

One said, "My father gave me a remote-controlled plane, which is really cool."

One said, "My mother gave me a new suit. It's beautiful. "

Another said, "My parents took me to the most luxurious restaurant for steak. It was delicious."

When they saw each other not talking, they all asked him, "What about you? What did your parents give you for your birthday this year? "

The little boy who kept silent said, "Mom and Dad gave me a set of books."

The children were a little surprised: "Books? Books can also be used as gifts? "

The little boy swaggered and said proudly, "Of course, my parents say that books are the best gift. I can learn a lot from books and understand a lot of truth."

The children who kept chattering suddenly became quiet and lost in thought.

I always think that cultivating children's habit of reading, taking them out to travel and looking around are the best gifts for children.

I have been guiding my son to read since he was very young. It doesn't matter if he is too young to read. I will accompany him to read picture books and tell him stories, which are vivid and cadence. He listened attentively, staring at two big round eyes, full of curiosity, quiet and serious.

He went to kindergarten and I began to take him to the library. Once, the administrator said, "Where can such a small child read?" What about the noisy rummaging? Might as well not go in. "

I said, "Don't worry, he loves reading and won't make any noise."

Indeed, as soon as my son entered the library, he became interested in those dense and neatly arranged books. He found some comic books and read them with relish.

Children are like a blank sheet of paper, and parents' guidance is very important. The younger, the more curious. Cultivate children's interest in reading and let them develop the habit of reading. The sooner the better.

After my son went to primary school, he became more literate, so I accompanied him to the library to borrow books he was interested in. Every night after he washes and sleeps, I will accompany him to read and let him tell me.

After a long time, he developed the habit of reading books before going to bed, and gradually grew up, and he didn't need my class. There are always some books at his bedside. He always reads them for more than half an hour before going to bed, and he can't shake them. He has a wide range of reading interests, and his favorite is science.

At present, he reads about ten books a month, far exceeding me. At this point, I feel ashamed. He is my role model.

Of course, we can't just talk about reading, but more importantly, digestion and absorption. I often remind him that reading should not be swallowed up, but should be understood and integrated.

The advantage of reading a lot for a long time is that his son's Chinese reading comprehension and composition are better. Because of reading, I have accumulated a lot of words and allusions and formed the habit of thinking. I can easily write a composition, enrich the content and add my own unique views.

In addition, because of his good reading comprehension, other subjects are easier to learn, and his grades in all subjects are very balanced, with no partiality.

Reading makes people master a lot of knowledge, and a rich knowledge system can bring confidence to children. Self-confidence is the foundation of success. Self-confidence makes people sunny, indomitable and have greater motivation.

In the process of chatting with classmates, my son can say a few words about astronomy, geography, historical allusions, advanced technology and so on. The admiration and envy of his classmates made him more confident and happy.

In a science class, the teacher mentioned a knowledge outside the textbook and asked if anyone knew it. Everyone else was silent. The son raised his hand to answer the question and was praised by the teacher.

When he came back from school, he was glad to tell me about it. I asked him how he knew the answer, and he said he read it in an extracurricular book. I encourage him to keep the good habit of reading and be a knowledgeable person.

A lot of reading makes people not only understand books, but also be reasonable, familiar with things, know how to be polite to others, and be more intelligent in dealing with others.

Reading can enrich people's knowledge, understand the truth, and travel can broaden people's horizons and increase their knowledge. I always believe that a knowledgeable, well-informed person can't be poor in life.

Therefore, every small holiday, we try to take our son out to travel.

When I was a child, I went to zoos, botanical gardens and children's amusement parks. Let him visit exotic flowers and plants, get in close contact with animal friends, and connect the animals and plants in real life with those seen in books to see what are the same and different. Go to the amusement park and let him ride a roller coaster, surf, etc. Exercise your courage.

After he has more knowledge and experience, we will take him to see places of interest, visit famous mountains and rivers, and feel the charm of China's long culture, history, architecture and folk customs.

Last National Day, we took our son to some ancient villages, visited Fuchun River and explored the Jinhua Shuanglong Cave written by Ye Shengtao. This trip made my son full of harvest and shouted.

We hope to take him around the great rivers and mountains of the motherland in the future. If there is an opportunity, we also want to take him abroad. If there is no chance, we will encourage him to go out and see for himself when he grows up.

I often educate my son: read thousands of books, take Wan Li Road, and try to keep both soul and body on the road.

I hope that by guiding him to study and travel, he will have a richer spiritual world and create his own future through his own hands and abilities.

It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. Give your child Jinshan Yinshan, it is better to guide him to climb the famous mountains of Shushan.

Both parents want the best for their children. So, what is the best gift for children? In the long run, reading and traveling are wise choices.
