This bosom friend, better early education, is the education that begins when a new life begins to be born. Scientific early education should focus on cultivating children's four important abilities: creativity; A healthy personality; Bold action; Be good at expressing your ideas.

Grasp the critical period of children's development

Wandering, 1.5 years old, eating with relish in her dining chair. She doesn't need adults to feed her bite by bite. 1.5 years old, she is already an "old reader" with more than 100 picture books. Her mother made a small bookshelf specially for her, and she can choose her favorite books from the bookshelf at will.

Many habits and abilities that will have an important impact on people's life, especially reading interests and habits, should be formed before children 1 year and a half. Because the growth of children has a critical period and a sensitive period. Just as all biological activities have their own biological clocks, so does human psychological development. The operation of human psychological clock has two remarkable characteristics. First, it runs fastest in the early life, and second, it has many critical moments. These "time stations" are milestones in children's growth. Strike while the iron is hot, get twice the result with half the effort

"1 half-year-old children begin to enter the' first negative stage' of psychological development. He suddenly found himself completely different from others. He has his own clothes, his favorite toys and his favorite fruits. When you asked him with' you', he learned to answer with' I'. This awakening of self-awareness made him try to make his own decisions everywhere, instead of being dominated by others. As a result,' no' became his favorite word and expressed his will. At the age of 2, he even had to fight for the highest' sovereignty' at home. At this time, if you start to want him to study quietly, how difficult it will be. "

There are several key stages in brain development, and different stages have different sensitive periods. For example, from birth to 3 years old, there are different sensitive periods for cognitive ability, language ability, ability to get along with peers, conditioned reflex, emotional control and observation in three years. At this time, parents need to create a good "microenvironment" for their children, so that your baby can naturally form good habits in different sensitive periods.

The "microenvironment" of children's development refers to the sum of all kinds of people, places and events that directly affect children's development and have an impact on children's development process. The direction, speed and level of children's development largely depend on the quality of the "microenvironment" of development.

Early family education should be personalized.

Cong Cong is an active little boy. As soon as he turned one year old, he was already a child who could run around the house and "explore" everywhere. But the grandmother who is responsible for taking care of him, her instinctive reaction is to protect or restrict, and sometimes even loudly reprimand or "conquer by force." "As we all know, this is an intangible injury to children's immature and very sensitive minds, because' not moving' means' not learning', this is not good, and that is not good, which is equivalent to sending a message to children: you can't, you are not accepted by our world." There are only two results of repeated restrictions and interference on children: one may lead to people who have no self-esteem and are passive in Nuo Nuo; The other is people who have strong resistance and eventually develop into anti-social behavior. They all have no healthy psychology and personality and can't adapt to the fierce competition in the future society.

Therefore, early family education should not only pay attention to children's intellectual development, but also pay attention to the shaping of sound personality, which not only develops children's physical and mental potential boldly and reasonably, but also develops children's personality comprehensively and harmoniously.

Children are different, so are parents. Individualized education is an education that meets the development needs of each child and enables his personality potential to be fully, comprehensively and harmoniously developed. Every child has a unique personality and has his own unique growth footprint. For a baby, the best education is the education that suits his personality characteristics, and it is the education that every step can start from his best starting point.

"In fact, if parents carefully observe, as early as 1-2 years old, we can distinguish children with different personality tendencies through their regular activities and behaviors, such as happy or unhappy, lively or dull, sensitive or dull, gregarious or shy, so as to develop and cultivate them according to their personalities."

However, a famous psychologist lamented that only 10% of children started from their best starting point. Young parents should do three things well: first, they should understand the development order and law of their children in each growth stage and each growth field, especially the level of intellectual development that their babies should reach every month or the key month of development and the indicators that they should reach at each age. For example, a 2-year-old baby should be able to jump twice with both feet at the same time, say more than two nursery rhymes, turn pages for more than three pages and so on. Another point is to understand the baby's current development level, carefully study and observe the child and see what advantages he has. In addition, the most important thing is to design a specific goal of "jumping to get the fruit" for every step of the baby's development.

A recent survey pointed out that coastal and inland families have different concerns. In coastal cities such as Guangzhou and Shenzhen, more than 80% of young parents give priority to intellectual development, while in inland cities such as Chengdu and Wuhan, more than 90% of families tend to prevent diseases, and half of parents are very concerned about some products related to child disease prevention.

According to experts' analysis, the emergence of this phenomenon is related to the local economic development level and parents' general view of parenting. Compared with the inland, the competition in coastal cities such as Guangzhou and Shenzhen is more intense, and parents have a stronger sense of identity with the concept of "never let their children lose at the starting line". Early education centers, cultural palaces and other educational places all over the city also make young parents pay special attention to intellectual development. However, in inland cities, few families can afford the high cost of early education centers. Most parents think that their children should be well maintained first. In hot summer, they are more concerned about the problems of getting angry such as poor sleep and loss of appetite.

Beware of the misunderstanding of family early education

More and more parents begin to agree that before the age of 3, it is a critical period for the growth and development of human brain, so early education for 0-3 years old is becoming more and more popular. But in fact, because many parents have some misunderstandings about the concept of early education, the early education that originally promoted children's development actually affected their healthy growth.

Myth 1: Pay attention to knowledge learning and ignore the cultivation of learning interest and the development of comprehensive ability.

An authoritative survey shows that 70% of families compare early education with knowledge instillation. Scientific research has long proved that children before the age of 3 can learn by rote, but the memorized content can't help them improve their mental level, nor can they improve their learning ability, and even bring psychological pressure to children and reduce their interest in learning. Such early education is harmful!

Experts suggest that parents can scientifically understand their children's developmental stages and characteristics, and choose some interesting and experiential education methods to let their children develop their basic abilities and experience knowledge in games and entertainment. "Education through fun" is the best learning method for babies aged 0-5.

Myth 2: Put the responsibility of early education entirely on early education schools, ignoring the role of parents in early education.

Early education experts say that many parents don't know how to love their children or educate their children in traditional ways. Even in early education classes, early education is pushed to schools, but there is a lack of interaction with children. In fact, for children aged 0-6, the key is to cultivate interest in learning, rather than instilling knowledge, which needs parents and early education schools to do simultaneously.

For example, to learn piano, a wise early education school will let children enjoy playing piano first through music courses. Once they find themselves interested in piano, their parents don't have to force them to study voluntarily. But at home, parents should let their children enjoy it, instead of forcing them to learn piano as before. This implementation is very important for the effectiveness of early education.
