Repetition is not only used in learning, but also in many places in life. For example, no one likes a new song the first time. It is often after listening to it several times that they gradually find their feelings and like it.
Today, Bian Xiao focuses on introducing "the importance of early education repetition" to parents and friends!
1
Repeated demand
Repetition is of great significance to newborns. When a seven-month-old baby tries to reach for a toy that attracts him, but the toy is suddenly covered with cloth, he will take his hand back and won't take it again.
Psychologists therefore speculate that babies do not have the concept of "object permanence" before they are one year old. He thinks that if things are invisible, they don't exist.
This is why the baby likes his mother to play hide-and-seek (a game in which adults hide their faces to make children laugh), and the constant appearance of his mother's face brings surprises and happiness to the baby.
In this sense, children naturally like to repeat, and will take the initiative to ask for repetition. In the process of early education, we can use repetition to consolidate what we have learned.

The need for growth and learning
If babies want to gradually establish their own "IQ", there must be a process of formation. At different stages, their learning methods and abilities are different!
{1} 1 years ago-sensory repetition stage
At this stage, the baby began to know and understand himself and the world by inadvertently sucking, kicking and grabbing toys, because he inadvertently discovered fun, such as the enjoyment of chewing, the body shaking caused by kicking, and the sound produced by grabbing and throwing toys.
{2} 1 year-old-1 year and a half-the experiment was repeated.
At this stage, the baby will "fine-tune" the repeated behavior to see what different results will be, such as piling sand repeatedly, putting it in his hand, putting it on his clothes and putting it in his mouth-to see what it feels like, and finally have a comprehensive understanding of sand.
{3} 1 year and a half -2 years old-language repetition stage
At this stage, the baby "leaps and bounds" in language, so he will say, listen and sing the same content over and over again, which is actually training his language ability.
{4} 2 -3 years old-physical and language repetition stage
At this stage, the baby "makes rapid progress" in physical fitness and language, which is also a sensitive period of imagination, so it will repeat the different contents of physical fitness and language.
Therefore, watching the same cartoon repeatedly can help the baby remember more and more information, and after hearing the same story many times, the baby's ability to repeat the story is stronger.
It can be seen that we think that "boring" repetition is not a simple repetition for the baby, but a new feeling and experience every time.

Repeated content and different forms bring a sense of self-confidence.
The feeling of self-confidence is not possessed immediately after the baby is born, but gradually formed through the appreciation, praise and encouragement of adults. In fact, with the growth of the baby, its ability of self-appreciation and self-encouragement is gradually formed.
In the baby's infancy (before the age of 3), it is difficult for adults to have a so-called "sense of accomplishment". Their "sense of accomplishment" mostly comes from their inner pride and satisfaction when they feel that they have completed an important task after completing that kind of "simple" behavior (solve riddles on the lanterns, playing a game for which they already know the answer).
Babies get unimaginable fun and satisfaction from it.
To sum up, repetition is of great significance in children's learning. We do not advocate mechanical repetition, but emphasize repetition based on children's interests and repetition in various forms and ways.
