Both enlightenment education and early education are very important. What is the difference between them?
Enlightenment education is an educational method that allows children to have a general understanding of the surrounding things without in-depth understanding. China people have attached great importance to enlightenment education since ancient times, and generally call their own enlightenment schools their alma mater, which shows their high status. However, the enlightenment education in ancient China can only be regarded as aristocratic education, and children in ordinary families can't receive formal enlightenment education. After liberation, China's education system has been gradually improved, and formal enlightenment education such as preschool kindergartens has become an indispensable part of China's education system. If children ask us questions, we should listen patiently, help them answer them, praise the children who love to ask questions, encourage them to ask questions boldly, and actively observe, discover and explore the mysteries of nature. This will stimulate their desire to explore and cultivate their enthusiasm and initiative for scientific exploration. ?

Adequate environmental stimulation and learning opportunities in the early stage will not damage the development of the brain. In fact, early education can promote brain development. Infantile period is the fastest development period of children's nervous system, and it is also the most critical period to develop various potentials. It is indeed a good opportunity for education. This period is a unique and important development stage in a person's life, an opportunity window for children's development and the best opportunity for babies to gain wisdom. ?

Early education is called between 0- 12 years old, because children under 12 years old have not yet formed a systematic cognitive concept and have strong learning ability, so the younger children have the best early education effect. 0-3 years old should belong to the enlightenment stage. Children's potential ability follows the law of decreasing. The earlier a child is educated and developed, the more beneficial it is to the development of potential intelligence, while the later he is educated, the more unfavorable it is to the development and education of potential intelligence, and the more difficult it is for children to develop their inherent potential abilities. Correct understanding and education of children can improve their language ability, logical thinking ability and communication ability, and make them have the conditions to receive formal education.
