Lead: Early childhood is the stage of enlightenment education, which is extremely important for children's growth and is an important stage to cultivate children's personality and curiosity. In the early childhood education stage, we should pay attention to the protection and development of children's personality, care for children's curiosity, pay attention to enlightenment education, strengthen the application of game education and narrative education in early childhood education, and let children get more experiential education.

How to educate children in kindergartens? Understand children's psychological characteristics and behavior patterns.

Childhood is very important in a person's life. Children in early childhood are curious about everything around them, want to explore, and have very strong imitation ability. Therefore, educating children well is of great significance. Because young children are very curious, and they know little about society, education at this stage should not attach too much importance to the results of education, but should pay attention to cultivating their interests.

If we pay too much attention to the results of education, it will not only make the results counterproductive, but also hurt children's interest. From the perspective of children's physical and mental health, we should encourage and appreciate more when educating children.

In the practice of early childhood education, we should consider that every child is a different individual and has his own personality characteristics. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the specific situation. In the face of every child, we should sincerely appreciate and admire him.

Besides, we should also consider the development of different children. Some children develop rapidly, while others develop relatively slowly. For example, there is a certain gap between intelligence and ability. In this regard, teachers should take an encouraging attitude towards these children, take full care of their self-esteem, and educate them according to their psychological characteristics instead of discriminating against them. It is necessary to increase the self-confidence of these children and constantly cultivate their hobbies, so that they can develop in an all-round way and benefit for life in the long run.

Second, pay attention to children's thoughts and behaviors.

Although children are still very young in terms of physical and psychological age, they are still independent individuals even if they are very young. Similarly, they have a psychological need to be respected and a psychological desire to be loved by others. Children are young and their ability to accept knowledge is not fast. Because of this, many teachers lose patience with their children and even bring negative emotions into the teaching process. This has caused great psychological harm to children, so that children have lost their desire and interest in future study.

Therefore, in the process of early childhood education, teachers should not only consider the psychological characteristics of children at this stage, but also protect their fragile psychology and respect children with an adult attitude. When talking with children, teachers should give them the right to fully express their opinions, listen carefully to their opinions and ideas, pay attention to their pronunciation and intonation, and let them feel respected. For example, when talking, the teacher can squat down and talk to the child, and the line of sight is flush with the child. When speaking, the tone should be kind, gentle and gentle, so as not to make children afraid and produce psychological pressure. You can also pick up your child when you talk, so that the child can feel respect and equality with others. These are extremely important for the healthy development of children's body and mind.

Children's expression of affairs is often not clear enough, because children are limited by age and often use body language when expressing their opinions. Teachers should be patient with children when they can't express clearly, know what they really want to express, pay attention to their body language and fully understand it, don't lose patience with their poor expression, and don't ignore them because of this.

When encountering certain things, the teacher can explain clearly to the children why they should do it, or why they should not do it, etc., instead of rigidly stipulating what they should and should not do. Rigid rules will only disgust children and hinder their psychological growth. Children's imagination is often wild. Teachers should give more encouragement and guidance, protect each child's dreams and make their childhood full of laughter.

Thirdly, preschool teachers should improve their education level.

(A) to carry out some necessary common sense education

In the whole study career, preschool education is the foundation. Therefore, at this stage, it is necessary to carry out popular science education about carrots and grapes, what can and can't be eaten. Furthermore, to cultivate their good habits such as being polite, teachers should pay special attention to their words and deeds, because children have strong imitation ability, and every move may become the object of their imitation. Teachers must set a good example for children.

Enrich children's educational forms.

Early childhood education should adopt various forms of education, and interest is the best teacher for children. In the early childhood education stage, we should take various forms to improve children's interest and guide them to become interested in knowledge, which is very helpful for their long-term development. In the teaching process, we should try our best to attract children's attention with colorful objects, patiently ask children heuristic questions, cultivate children's creative thinking, guide children to express, listen patiently and exercise their expressive ability.

The method of preschool education should be different from that of adult education. The teaching content of early childhood education is different from that of students of other ages, and children are mainly in a cognitive stage. Therefore, the teaching content should be based on common sense of life and the content should be rich and colorful. In the process of teaching, it is necessary to enrich its forms, rather than educating children in the form of adult education. In children's teaching, we should use singing, dancing, games, drawing and other colorful forms to make the knowledge taught vivid and at the same time make it easier for children to accept psychologically. This also requires teachers to enrich the forms of early childhood education as much as possible according to the psychological characteristics of young children and their own situation, liberate the nature of young children, and conduct comprehensive education for young children to make them develop in an all-round way.
