Free activities have no purpose. The development of children mainly depends on what resources the surrounding environment provides him, and the development of children in that area will be better. For example, all children are free-range, and there are many books at home. Adults love reading, and they are more likely to like reading, and their reading habits and abilities are better developed. For children who live in a good neighborhood and have a wide venue, children often have the opportunity to play everywhere, so their big sports will develop better. Some people in the family love music, and children often hear music, so children have a better sense of music.
Early education is a systematic and purposeful game. Under the guidance of the curriculum and teachers, try to create conditions that can develop children's abilities in all aspects, so that children can get more comprehensive development. For example, the early church comprehensively developed children's observation ability, language expression ability, musical intelligence, touch ability, hearing ability, smell and taste ability, large-scale sports and fine sports through games, music enlightenment classes and physical education class, which laid a good all-round foundation for children's future study.
Therefore, regardless of whether children are mainly playing or early education, my suggestion is that if conditions permit, children can attend formal and high-quality early education, and then develop their own advantages according to the resources provided by their families. Take early education as the main line (but the time is not long, usually once or twice a week), and give children room for free exploration and development in the rest of the time.
In addition, different adjustments should be made according to different stages of the baby. Take the baby as an example: when the baby just learns to speak, we adults should always pay attention to our words and deeds, and don't pay attention to speaking or doing things on the grounds that the child is still young and ignorant; At this stage, babies know the world through what we do as parents, and we are their first lifelong teacher.
