Childhood is a critical period for the rapid development of the brain. Grasping this critical period and using the sensitivity of brain nerves for early education can get twice the result with half the effort. Early childhood education is of great significance to children's development. Next, I will sort out the importance of early childhood education for you. I hope you like it!
The importance of early education
Early education for children aged 0-6 is a problem that cannot be ignored. It is the golden age of a person's lifelong education. It is understood that if you miss the "critical period" of education, it will affect your child's life and cause irreparable losses.
The critical period means that children are most likely to learn some knowledge, skills or form some psychological characteristics in a certain period. As long as we miss this period, the obstacles to development will be difficult to make up. This is what people often say, "Look at the old at three years old and look at the old at seven years old"!

The Importance of "Critical Period" in Early Childhood Education
Below I want to illustrate the importance of the "critical period" of early childhood education through two real examples.
1 and 1920, American pastor Singh discovered two "wolf children" in India. The youngest was only two years old and died soon. The oldest is about eight years old, and his name is kamala. When the two "wolf children" were rescued from the wolf's den, they behaved like wolves, sleeping during the day, howling at night, crawling and grabbing food with their hands. They are afraid of water and fire and never take a bath.
Under Singh's careful care and education, kamala spent two years learning to stand, four years learning six words, six years learning to walk upright, seven years learning 45 words, and learning to eat from a bowl and drink from a cup. By the time kamala/Kloc-died at the age of 0/7, her intelligence was only equivalent to the psychological development level of a four-year-old child.
People found a Japanese soldier, Masaichi Yokoi, who disappeared in the forest of Southeast Asia during World War II. He stayed away from human beings and lived like a savage for 28 years, forgetting all human habits, even Japanese words. But after he was rescued, it only took him 82 days to train, which made him get used to it and adapt to human life, and he got married a year later.
Summary of two stories:
Why has Hengjingzhuang been a savage for 20 years, but his education and training are much easier than that of a wolf child? The reason is that Hengjingzhuang has not missed the "critical period" of education, which shows the importance of the "critical period".
Two examples tell us that children's education has a "critical period", which plays an extremely important role in the formation of children's intelligence and the cultivation of their abilities. If we miss this critical period, we will spend several times or even dozens of times to make up for it, or even never make up for it.
How do parents educate their children from an early age?
1, grasp the critical period of early childhood education. There are many critical periods in a person's life, but they are mainly concentrated in the stage before the age of 7. When did your child learn to crawl?
2. Most children learn to crawl in 7~ 10 months, because the myelin sheath of human brain enters a stage of crawling in 7~ 10 months; Similarly, 10~ 12 months is the critical period for standing. We don't have to teach children to walk, they will learn quickly; When children enter the critical period of ability learning, we can learn what children aged 3-6 should learn according to the critical period of ability learning.
Learning from 3 to 6 years old determines whether a child will become a success in the future.
Before the age of 3, it is a critical period to cultivate children's basic behavior, spoken language, counting and rules. Therefore, it is reasonable to send children to kindergarten at the age of 3, because the 3-year-old children already have basic spoken English and certain rules, and it is also a crucial period for the formation of children's personality.
Before the age of 4, it is a critical period for children's visual development. Image vision refers to what we usually call imagination and creativity, so we will find that children aged 3-4 especially like to ask "why", and sometimes even ask adults speechless and don't know how to answer.
At the age of 5, children enter the second critical period of written language, mathematical concepts and oral language development.
6 years old, mainly the key period to master the language vocabulary ability.
Therefore, the cultivation of children aged 3~6 years is a critical period to determine whether they can become successful in the future, and the cultivation of leadership temperament should start from early childhood.
3. Parents and children grow up together. If a child is born without intellectual development and education, it is no exaggeration to say that he has returned to primitive times. The story of Wolf Child is an example. Now many parents are beginning to realize the importance of early education and pay attention to cultivating children's abilities in all aspects from an early age.
However, in the process of implementation, parents are often powerless and have poor educational methods, but they don't know how to improve and can't find better helpers. Some parents buy a lot of books and CDs for early education, which is not only expensive, but also time-consuming and laborious, and the effect is not ideal. This requires parents to know more about parenting knowledge. In order to find the right information and methods to teach students in accordance with their aptitude.
