Whether literacy education should be carried out in preschool stage, and what are the controversies? What's your opinion?
I once read an article by Yin Jianli, an education expert. She thinks:

As for children's early literacy and early recitation of classics, some people "firmly believe that children should not be literate and read independently before the age of 7", which I think is wrong.

It is easy to argue: Do preschool children need enlightenment? Definitely! So talking to children is enlightenment, tearing a piece of paper is enlightenment, reading picture books is enlightenment, reading maps is enlightenment, and listening to a song is enlightenment. ...

Knowledge is neither good nor bad. What children can accept is good. The problem is how adults teach these things to children.

How beautiful Chinese characters are, especially our Chinese characters, which are beautiful in form and sound and meaning. It is said that when Cang Xie created characters, he touched the gods and spirits of heaven and earth. How can such a good thing become the poison of enlightenment education?

I think so too. China's Chinese characters are the most classic part of China culture, which are earlier than calligraphy and painting and bear extraordinary significance. Therefore, when our children were two or three years old, I specially taught them to learn Chinese characters. At home, I also bought some word cards, such as wheat fields, imaginary literacy cards and baby flowers, all at the age of two, because paper things didn't hurt their eyes, even if they couldn't understand them at that time. Now I will give him some app learning. I am more optimistic about the latest smart image fast literacy app, because it is purely animated, and it turns the evolution of Chinese characters into animation, which I expected before. I hope that children can not only read, but also see the culture of China from Chinese characters, because too many people combine Chinese characters with exam-oriented education, which makes the situation of Chinese characters very embarrassing. In fact, Chinese characters are really something we should pay attention to. Although children are naturally literate, how many children can really understand what is behind Chinese characters after all? Therefore, I think literacy education should be carried out in preschool period. Chinese characters are a kind of cultural study, not a preview of exam-oriented education.
