Professor Park is the mother of three children and has been engaged in early education research for many years. She said that 3-6 years old is the best time to cultivate children's creativity. Creativity should be discovered by children themselves in the game, not reminded by parents and teachers. At this age, it is very dangerous for parents to interfere with their children too much and even stifle their creativity.
When a child draws a green sun, a red tree and purple grass, parents should never deny the child, but should first ask the child why he draws like this. When children give imaginative reasons such as "the green sun can make the world cooler", parents should express their praise and affirmation in time. Professor Park reminded parents not to pay too much attention to whether the answers or results given by children are correct according to the way of thinking of adults, but to pay attention to the process of their discovery of creativity.
Don't worry about throwing toys around.
Most parents have this experience: when they come home from work, they find that the baby has thrown toys all over the house and the snow-white wall has been graffiti. Therefore, parents had to clean up the scattered toys as quickly as possible, and then warned the baby: it can't be like this next time! However, a few days later, parents will find that their children are doing the same thing again ... Professor Park, as a mother, has also encountered the same problem. In the special speech, Mother Park shared her method with her parents: three children throw toys at home, and she will never clean them up before five o'clock in the afternoon. After five o'clock, Mother Park will discuss with the children why the toys are thrown at sixes and sevens, how to clean up the messy toys, and then let the three children cooperate with each other. After a few weeks, parents will find that their children will take the initiative to clean up their toys without being reminded by their mothers.
Give the child a hug before going to bed.
A mother asked: I have to go to work every day, and I have little time to communicate with my baby. What should I do? Professor Park told her that the time spent with the baby is not the length, but whether you are responsible for every moment with the child. Remember to give your child a sincere hug before going to bed every day and say a compliment to him (her). After one year, you will find that your baby will have a very obvious change.
Professor Park gives advice to working mothers: The first thing to do when you come home from work every day, don't rush to do housework, immediately rush to the child's side, hug him (her), make out with him (her) hard, and remember to make full contact with the baby's body. If this continues for a while, you will find that the baby won't cry when you go to work, because he or she has full confidence through his or her mother's actions: "I will always be the first in my mother's heart!" " " .
Sand and newspapers can also stimulate imagination.
As one of the founders of early education of artistic thinking, Professor Plumet and her team have been devoted to the development of children's imagination and creativity. Years of educational experience have made them find that children will be very creative when they meet things that make them happy, and graffiti, crafts, sculpture and other artistic games are exactly the most enjoyable forms of games for children under 6 years old. As long as it is guided, vegetables, flour, sediment and newspapers in daily life can all be tools to stimulate children's imagination. Professor Park hopes that every parent can realize this and try to squat down and see the world from a child's perspective.
