Whether early education is necessary, these two words must be familiar to parents, especially when the baby is eight or nine months old, many parents begin to think and study early education. But do you really know about early education? Early education, when will you arrive early? What do you teach? At present, many parents have a big misunderstanding about early education. I believe many parents are stupid and confused about early education, early education institutions, classes and learning. Don't worry, look down.
What is real early education? First of all, early education is not education in advance.
Early education is becoming more and more familiar, but it is always used narrowly. It is obviously inappropriate to equate early education with learning the content of exam-oriented education. More precisely, early education refers to the early education that every child needs when he or she develops individually: family education during the period of 0-6 years old, not early education. Children's growth cycle has its own rules. As the saying goes, childhood is precious only once.
Second, the foundation of early education is family.
Talking about early education, good early education must be based on family. In other words, if parents have requirements for their children, then first of all, parents themselves must "set an example". If parents can't even do these basic things in their daily lives, but hope to do them through educational institutions, it is tantamount to seeking fish from a tree. Each of us has the influence of one or both parents on our personality or behavior characteristics, which is precisely because of their daily words and deeds, and will also have an impact on children's formation of their own thinking patterns and values.
Third, early education is personalized education.
Most parents' behavior only revolves around their own thoughts and wishes, so there will be "copying gourd" to educate their children. But this doesn't just mean that children are receiving effective education. Every child is unique and different. On the basis of respecting children's growth, creating an environment with its own growth rules and a good tutor atmosphere can lay a solid foundation for their future growth.
It is actually biased to narrowly understand early education as "attending classes in early education centers" or "playing with children at home".
So, what does early education teach? Now let me popularize it for you:
Early education first educates parents.
Early education first educates not children, but parents themselves. Children's growth is based on parents' own growth, because all educational choices are the embodiment of parents' thoughts. If you can't grow up from a couple in a two-person world to a parent in a three-person world, it is very likely that you will make a wrong judgment on early education: First, you think that early education is equivalent to exam-oriented learning; One is that there is no need for early education. Only by correctly understanding early education can parents realize that accompanying their children to grow up is the core value of early education, and the role of parents is irreplaceable, which is also a part of early education. Only when parents learn how to get along with their children and understand their behavior in the process of getting along with them can they give their children the growth elements they need in the family environment by constantly improving the atmosphere of self-education and family education, which is the first step of early education.
Get growth opportunities through the outside world
As the implementers of early education, parents can't do all the family education. Because, when parents objectively analyze themselves, they will realize that they can't complete the early education for their children in some aspects, and they can supplement the early education for their children through external resources, such as early education institutions. But this supplement must combine the characteristics of children and the ability of parents, thus forming a benign complementarity. For example, a parent who doesn't know how to play with his children probably needs a parent-child class to cultivate his own thinking and learn how to play with his baby. This is a complete process.
Early education is not an early education institution. Early education means "early education", not "early education institution". In order to pass through the mother's narrow birth canal, the fetus was born before the brain was fully developed. And all human behavior and thinking activities are controlled by the brain. After the baby is born, the brain nerve continues to develop, and the neural network has been growing, breaking and reorganizing, leaving useful neural pathways and useless neural pathways. This process, there is an easy-to-understand word to describe, that is, "use into the waste." The significance of early education, in the final analysis, is actually to provide children with the environment and methods that can promote the development of brain nerves as soon as possible, that is, to give children the rich environment they need for growth. Before the age of one, it is mainly to stimulate the development of children's sensory and physical qualities (the development of early human sensory and motor functions determines the development of other development fields and advanced behaviors in the future. To give a few simple examples, vision is related to people's reading ability; Hearing enables people to receive language signals; Touch enables human beings to understand things through touch; Speaking, holding a pen and writing also depend on motor functions. ) At the age of one, give children more opportunities to interact and socialize, so as to promote the thinking process, language exercise, emotional understanding and so on. The landlord's child is one and a half years old. Children of this age need more social opportunities, because at home, the people who interact with children are often just family members. Children need to communicate with others (including peers and adults), learn some social conditions and social rules outside the family, learn to observe the emotions and feelings of others, and learn to solve problems by themselves. In this process, children will enrich their knowledge input and language learning because of the expansion of their horizons and the increase of interaction. Therefore, if parents can provide a rich environment for their children's early growth at home, there is no need to go to early education classes. However, if parents have no idea about how to educate their children early and want professional advice, they should seek help. Mothers can seek information through expert lectures, mom forums, internet, books and other channels, and early education classes are more specific channels for obtaining professional help. The premise is to choose a professional early education institution. The service provided by professional early education institutions should be more than a 45-minute course, but professional guidance for parents on how to create an early education environment and how to carry out parent-child activities. Of course, the early education industry is booming at present, and there are many early education brands on the market. The measurement of its professionalism is a bigger topic, so we can only discuss another topic. To sum up, a person's knowledge accumulation is getting richer and richer with age. However, the learning ability is the strongest at birth and gradually weakens with age. Therefore, the education of children should start from the age of zero. Of course, we don't have to use such a heavy word as "education"-in layman's terms, parents try to provide their children with rich visual, auditory, tactile, sports, spatial changes, language input and other stimuli from the time they are born, so that they can feel love, attention, understanding, safety, confidence and happiness. This is the meaning of early education. If you can do the above, you don't have to go to the early education class.
