Grasp the developmental period of the brain
The importance of early education has been confirmed by many physiological research results. It is reported that the formation of dendrites and neural bonds requires huge energy. Babies' brains will use twice as much energy as adults, and babies will learn more at this stage than at any other stage in their lives.
In addition, there is a chemical structure that affects children's future life development. The human body secretes hormones, enabling people to respond appropriately to problems. Therefore, when a child encounters setbacks, a hormone that causes depression will gradually spread to every blood vessel in the whole body. If the degree of depression continues to deepen, then the amount of this hormone will continue to increase. At 0- 18 months, everyone's right brain develops rapidly, and the healthy development of the right brain, which is in charge of rhythm, painting, imagination, emotion and creativity, can help children deal with negative emotions correctly, so it is twice the result with half the effort to seize this golden time for early education.
Early education is not everything.
Li Dongmei, director of the Golden Cradle Baby Garden, thinks that many parents want their children to become extraordinary children through early education, which is wrong. Early education should first cultivate children's interest in learning and guide them to form good behavior habits, and should not overemphasize skills. Therefore, it is worth reminding that many parents regard early education institutions as kindergartens and playgrounds, and it will not play any role to let their babies go to class with this idea. In addition, parents are the key to the success of early education. Parents are children's first teachers. Parents should apply what they have learned in early education classes to their daily lives and truly educate their children at an early age.
Parents should pay attention to the following points when choosing early education institutions:
1, look at the venue. The activity environment should be suitable for children's age characteristics, and there should be more open activity space. Decoration style and materials should be healthy and environmentally friendly. The surrounding environment should be quiet and tidy, with an educational atmosphere. Indoor ventilation and lighting should be sufficient and sanitation and disinfection should be strict; The above is the environment, that is, the hardware requirements.
2. Look at the teachers. On the surface, the teacher's ability is not comprehensive, so we must communicate with the teacher more. It depends on the teacher's manners, professional knowledge, classroom organization and speech ability. It is suggested that parents can communicate with their teachers more about their baby's development and consult some parenting problems so as to have a comprehensive understanding.
Basic methods of choosing early education institutions
Seeing that mothers pay more and more attention to early education, more and more mothers want to choose early education institutions to let their babies receive early education. At the same time, let's learn how to educate our baby early, but we should know that it is also very important to choose a formal early education institution suitable for our baby. Let's talk about how to choose an early education institution.
Educational idea
Through the publicity materials of early education institutions, we can know whether his educational philosophy respects children's personality development, whether he has a solid theoretical foundation and long-term educational practical experience.
Comfortable environment
Field trip. Depending on the environment, whether the baby's safety is well considered, there should be basic child safety passages and safety measures, toys and teaching AIDS should be safe and hygienic, and the environment should be comfortable, bright and clean. The quantity and quality of toys and teaching AIDS can also show the professionalism of early education institutions. There should be a place for children's activities before and after class. After all, children are small and active by nature. It is impossible for a child to sit quietly while waiting. There must be enough space to attract children. Generally speaking, the current early education centers are teaching in small classes, and each class has at most 10 babies and their parents to participate in the study. However, if the classroom area is less than 50 square meters, the space for children to move freely is somewhat small. Therefore, the size of the classroom area and the warmth of the layout are also the performance of the strength of early education institutions. Parents had better choose those early education institutions that are full of home atmosphere, tables and chairs with rounded corners without burrs, and the power supply is set in a safe place to give their children a good learning environment.
competence
When choosing an early education center, the level of teachers is one of the most important criteria. Experts point out that a lecture or a book cannot solve the problem. Because the teachers in the center teach parents and children, the level of teachers is very important. Professional things should be done by professional people, so every early education institution has hired experts to be consultants of its own center and participate in the training and teaching guidance of teachers in the center. When parents are in contact with teachers, they only need to ask a few professional questions or communicate on the characteristics of their children's current development, which will test the level of teachers. At the same time, we should also investigate the degree of care of Xiaobai in the early education center and whether the staff have love for the children.
curriculum design
You can talk to the teacher, ask the teacher about the teaching content and arrangement of older children this month, and check whether the curriculum arrangement takes into account the needs of children's individualized development and is suitable for children's monthly development. The curriculum arrangement should be consistent, from shallow to deep, and with the growth of children, there are special courses for children's age. At the same time, parents should also understand their children, choose a single characteristic course that conforms to their personality development, choose targeted classes, and tap their potential.
Regular activities
A good early education institution should be able to hold parties for children regularly, provide a stage for children to show themselves, give children opportunities to participate in group activities, and let children get communication training outside the family. Great performance opportunities can also cultivate children's self-confidence. It is also necessary to create opportunities for parents to communicate with early education experts, ask experts about the problems encountered in parenting and get professional answers.
At a reasonable price
In fact, the price of early education institutions should be moderate, and the affordability of families should be considered. The more expensive the better, as long as it suits our children. Pay attention to whether there are preferential activities in the early education center. Registration during the preferential period can save some tuition fees.
Convenient traffic
Children in early childhood classes are younger. If the journey is far away, it will consume too much physical strength of children on the road and affect the effect of class. Under the same conditions, we should choose an early education institution close to home. It would be better if there is a car to pick up the baby, avoiding the torture of cold and heat. Practical experience is always the most reliable, believe in your own experience. Nowadays, many early education institutions have free experience courses, so parents can take their babies to have a try first. Make a choice after full comparison.
It is very important for parents to find a suitable early education institution after a comprehensive examination, give their children a professional start and let him win at the starting line of life.
