1. When choosing a kindergarten, you should first consider the distance from home and the convenience of transportation. This can save the pick-up time, and children and parents will not be too hard, especially in rainy days or winter, and being close to home can also reduce some accidents.
2. Whether the idea of running a kindergarten and the teachers have affinity. Kindergarten teaching philosophy is in line with their own family, teachers have affinity, children will easily adapt and prefer to go to school.
When visiting the kindergarten, you should carefully observe the way the teacher communicates with other children and the expressions on the children's faces. Excellent kindergarten teachers will communicate with their children equally, and their words and deeds will reveal their love for their children, and whether their children are happy or not will be shown on their faces.
3. The comprehensive conditions of the kindergarten, including safety protection facilities, hardware facilities, dietary conditions, etc.
When parents visit the kindergarten, they should see how big the children's activity area is, whether they are equipped with large toys, whether the toys are dangerous, whether the various safety facilities in the park are dilapidated, and whether the corridors are equipped with fire extinguishers and emergency exits. These protective facilities are related to the personal safety of children, so parents must pay attention to them.
Ask how the children's recipes are arranged and whether there is a special nutritionist's guidance, which is related to the children's food safety and health.
Will you choose a public or private kindergarten for your child?
Some time ago, it was reported that Guo Jingjing's son went to Hong Kong Baoshan Kindergarten, and the one-year tuition fee was 1.4 million! It seems that the star rich, like most parents, spend a lot of money for their children's further study.
From the beginning of the year, many mothers around me began to inquire about the kindergarten. I often see them discussing in groups. Do you want to choose a private kindergarten with good evaluation and more teaching? Or go to a public kindergarten close to home without stress? In order to choose a good kindergarten for children, it really broke the hearts of many mothers.
Choose a public park or a private park for your child? Mothers can look at the following set of comparisons and make choices according to their actual situation.
Teaching methods are different.
My friend's daughter is 4 years old. She attended a private kindergarten last year. Kindergarten has a good reputation and teaches a lot. Since she went to kindergarten, children have been able to recite poems, write and enlighten English. I thought she would always let her children go to school there. After all, she can learn a lot. But recently she has been busy transferring her children to other kindergartens. Only after asking did she know that she felt that private kindergartens learned too much and were too far away from home. It is too hard for a child to be 3 years old. She is going to transfer her child to a public kindergarten from the beginning of the year.
There is a public kindergarten in the community. Every time I pass by here, I either see the children in the activity area playing games and doing handicrafts, or hear them singing. All the children are happy, but I always feel that children can't learn anything like this. However, the teachers in the garden said that their kindergarten pays attention to enlightenment education, cultivates children's divergent thinking, learns to communicate and interact with people by playing games, feels, explores and imitates through their own practical operations, and learns while doing and playing.
Private kindergartens and public kindergartens have their own advantages in teaching methods. Public kindergartens pay attention to the cultivation of children's divergent thinking, and children are happy and relaxed when playing. However, the teaching mode is relatively solid, and it will follow the regulations of the State Education Bureau and other departments, and will use textbooks promoted by the state.
This is not as good as private kindergartens, which will adopt some innovative early education methods, such as bilingual courses, to educate children in early English. There are also some innovative ideas, such as Montessori and children's multiple intelligences. There are many things to learn, such as math, reading, painting and so on. There are also various interest classes. Children who are only three or four years old are too tired, but it is more conducive to the young connection in the future.
Teaching staff are superior to the public.
"The children's private kindergarten has a tuition fee of 5,000 yuan a semester, and several teachers have changed in one semester. Just getting familiar with the teacher, the teacher left again, and the children are not willing to go to kindergarten. "
This kind of thing often happens in private kindergartens. The great mobility of teachers is closely related to the nature of the school. Teachers in private kindergartens are not prepared, so the work pressure is great and the economic losses are too much, so we don't have to consider it. In order to save costs, some kindergartens employ teachers who have no experience as kindergarten teachers, but the teachers are young and energetic and are popular with children.
Public kindergartens are very strict in choosing teachers. Teachers generally have the background of kindergarten teachers in normal schools, with strong professional quality and stable teachers. Don't worry about children changing teachers frequently, but many people report that school teachers will ask for gifts and other requirements.
Public admission is difficult, but private admission is expensive.
"Public kindergartens are difficult to enter, and their heads are broken" and "A mother spends 20,000 to buy public kindergarten places" ... Every time a kindergarten signs up, there will be a lot of such news.
Because of government subsidies or financial allocations, the price of public kindergartens can often be very low, with tuition fees of several hundred thousand yuan per semester. You can look at the charging standards for public kindergartens set by the Shanghai Development and Reform Commission last year. The highest charging standard for nursery education in public first-class full-time kindergartens in this city is 225 yuan/month, and the highest charging standard for second-class kindergartens is 175 yuan/month. Public kindergartens in other cities will also charge fees according to regulations.
There is good service and education, and parents prefer public kindergartens, but the reception capacity of public kindergartens is limited, so there is a phenomenon in the news. Moreover, public kindergartens have set certain admission conditions, and only children with registered permanent residence within their jurisdiction are admitted at the age of three.
Parents don't have time to take care of their children, so they can send them to private kindergartens in advance. There is no household registration restriction, but the tuition is much more expensive.
A friend, after years of struggle, made enough down payment and bought a small three-bedroom apartment in the suburbs. When I bought it, I considered kindergarten. The developer vowed to build a kindergarten in the community and implement bilingual education. The tuition is not expensive, about one year 15000, which is acceptable. After buying a house and finishing the decoration, the kindergarten began to recruit students, but the tuition fee far exceeded the budget at that time, 30 thousand a year, not counting the childcare fee and meals. There are also kindergartens with lower fees, about 3,000 yuan a semester. The fees charged by different private kindergartens vary greatly, and the tuition fees of the most expensive and cheapest schools may differ by dozens of times.
