-Chen Heqin does not advocate that children learn to write too early.
Children should not write too early. Many parents are proud that their children can write, but writing too early is not conducive to the development of their hands and bodies. Let's take a look with Bian Xiao.

Children under 4 years old are younger and their hands are not well developed. It is recommended not to write for a long time. I suggest that you let your child take a crayon, because the crayon is thick and will not affect his finger development, but it can help the child learn sketch simply.
Children should not learn to write too early.
Many parents teach their children to learn to write in the middle class or even earlier, which is obviously inappropriate. The ossification process of children's hand joints has not been completed, and the strength of hand muscles is also very poor, so they are not competent for actions that require lasting strength. Moreover, children's hand, eye and brain coordination ability is also poor. When they write, their eyes are always fixed on the nib. In order to see the movement of the pen tip, he leaned his head and tried to move his right shoulder, elbow and wrist forward.
Therefore, it can be said that it is also very difficult to ask children to write with correct posture and stroke order (from left to right and from top to bottom) prematurely. According to the survey, 90% of children aged 2-4 are in a state of graffiti; Five-year-old children, 95% can accurately copy and draw, but 75% can't write simple Chinese characters with correct stroke order and posture (such as oral white); Children over 5 years old can basically write simple Chinese characters with correct posture and stroke order. It depends on the strength of children's hands and muscle development, and children have individual differences. Therefore, writing is basically something after children enter primary school and should not be advocated in early childhood.
Does premature writing affect children's physical development?
Many kindergartens regard teaching children to write as an important factor in enrollment. Many parents also took a fancy to this one, avoiding the trek of interest classes. As we all know, writing before the age of 5 is not conducive to their growth. Shen Xiaoming, director of the Shanghai Education Commission, made it clear that teaching children to write too early, especially before the age of five, is not conducive to their future growth.
Shen Xiaoming explained that children's hands are usually not fully developed until the age of seven or eight, but before the age of six, they are all "fleshy". When holding the pen, you can only hold it like a fist, and the fingertips hold the nib inward. This way, the hand holding the pen will block your sight, which will inevitably lead to the posture of reading paper and writing. If this is the case for a long time, it will invisibly bury the hidden danger of myopia for children.
Not only is it difficult to keep the posture correct, but also the limited grip strength is not enough to write powerful and beautiful words. In addition, parents themselves don't understand the stroke order of some Chinese characters, which is easy to cause children's mistakes in strokes and stroke order. These three kinds of adverse effects are like "pulling out the seedlings to encourage them" for children, which is not desirable.
Before the age of five, we can focus on cultivating children's interest in literacy. Shop names and signs on the road can become natural teaching materials for life, which can arouse children's interest more than rigid literacy cards. After the age of six, children can be properly taught to learn to write, but the principle of "quality but not quantity" must be followed. If writing is not good, it must be strictly rewritten. But when the child's wrist and arm strength are not fully developed, the writing time should be controlled. 1 at the beginning of the month, it is advisable to spend a quarter of an hour at a time, and gradually increase it later.
It is important for parents to create a relatively relaxed environment for their children, whether teaching literacy or learning to write, and not to let them lose interest in Chinese characters, so as not to adversely affect classroom learning and future growth.
