My grandfather asked me, "What do you want to do with your life?"

I said, "Eat popsicles!"

He said, "No, the old people want to break into the world and see the world."

From then on, I made up my mind to break into the world, see the world and eat popsicles in my life.

What kind of children have you seen around?

I think of an old friend, Lao Liang, who has his own educational method: he takes his children out to see potatoes almost every month.

He will not only take his children to amusement parks, zoos and other places, but also take them to "unpopular" places such as children's welfare homes, nursing homes and mountainous areas.

Small potatoes lack many shortcomings of children of the same age, and they are decent, not domineering, not stage fright, gentle and cheerful.

I remember once going to the mountains with Lao Liang's family. As soon as the little potato got off the bus, several children gathered around and soon the little potato became one with the children.

Lao Liang said: The reason why I brought my child to the mountainous area is that I hope he can see a different world, know excellent people, know that there are mountains beyond the mountains, and know how to be modest and enterprising; If you have seen suffering, you will know to cherish and pity.

I think the so-called seeing the world means seeing real life. Children who have really seen the world know how to treat everyone around them with humility and piety.

As parents, what should we do to make our children really see the world?

Reading is the best way to see the world.

Bacon said: "Reading history makes people wise, reading poetry makes people witty, mathematics makes people careful, physics makes people profound, ethics makes people grave, logic and rhetoric make people able to contend."

People who love reading naturally have the spirit of books.

Remember Wu Yishu at the China Poetry Conference?

In the exciting "Flying Flowers Order" session, the host reminded me that poetry is repetitive. When the atmosphere of the audience reached a critical point, she calmly recited the sentence "The Book of Songs is in July, in August, in the house in September, in bed in October."

From kindergarten to high school, Wu Yishu has never been far away from poetry, which makes her poetry reserve reach 2000, and only on the stage can she be indifferent.

If you want your children to see the world, you should spend more time with them. Because this is the easiest way to increase your knowledge and the most convenient way to see the world.

Within the scope of ability,

Take the children out to see more.

When it comes to seeing the world, many parents think of traveling first. After all, it is better to study in thousands of books than to take Wan Li Road.

Every summer vacation, many parents compete to take their children out to travel or participate in various summer camps, so that a "summer vacation contempt chain" is also rumored on the Internet:

Travel around the world > study abroad > domestic study tour > tutorial+interest class > outdoor outing+self-study > wandering within 5km of Fiona Fang. ......

But taking children out to travel is more important than the grade of travel and the quality of parent-child companionship.

Children who grow up in cities always know little about the countryside. A friend of mine took advantage of this summer vacation to take his children back to his hometown.

They took their children to work in the fields and showed them rice, sweet potatoes, peanuts, cotton and Inula flowers growing in the fields. ...

Tell him interesting stories about his childhood and his grandparents' generation.

After coming back, the child's summer vacation composition has written nearly 1000 words, and the article is also lively and interesting.

It doesn't matter how far and how expensive you look at the world. The key is to take children to see things that have never been touched, give them fresh feelings and broaden their understanding.

Let children know more excellent friends.

There is an interesting study: the average level of the five closest friends around you is your knowledge, achievement and ability.

Last year, there was a news that six boys were admitted to Tsinghua and Peking University in a dormitory attached to Hunan Normal University.

These boys all like the Chemistry Olympics. Because the senior one came to the same dormitory, in order not to affect each other, they even made a dormitory convention.

* * * After working together for three years, six boys finally achieved impressive results. Three of them were admitted to Tsinghua, and the other three were recommended to the same major in Peking University.

There has been a lot of news about Xueba dormitory and Xueba class, and these news also confirm the truth: the circle of friends that children contact greatly affects what kind of people children will eventually become.

Children are natural observers and imitators. With excellent friends, children can learn more about their excellent qualities and achievements.

Behind the children who have seen the world,

Parents with patterns.

Zheng Chenxiao, the top liberal arts scholar in Anhui Province, wanted to travel when he was in senior three. Mom and dad not only didn't stop her on the grounds of nervous study, but also tried to take time off to accompany their children.

Zhuo Xicong, the top liberal arts scholar in Sichuan last year, is a die-hard fan of the German team. On the eve of the college entrance examination, the World Cup was in full swing, but his parents still didn't stop him from watching the ball.

Shi Qinyu, the top science scholar in Beijing, has been a walking "100,000 Why" since she was a child. In the face of children's questions, her parents always answer patiently, and those who don't know will accompany her to check the information.

The Excellence of parents does not necessarily mean having an enviable career, profound knowledge or rich family wealth, but it is necessary to have a broad vision and pattern in order to give children more trust and security.

These trust and security make children dare to try, take the initiative, see more and go further, and gradually become the leader in the crowd.

Kung fu mommy said:

Let children see the world, you don't have to take them far, and you don't have to spend a lot of money. Parents' guidance is more important than spending money on them.

Parents who always say that they have no conditions to bring their children into this world are already behind others when they say this. You know, parents' vision and pattern are the premise for children to see the world.
