Parents should be spiritual servants of children, not masters.
A child has a mental embryo in his heart, which has a special ability to help him understand the world. This special ability is called "sensitive period".

The whole life state of a child consists of one sensitive period after another. Children are self-developing. We should be spiritual servants of children, not masters. Just create an environment for him. Children are not bottles. It's not what we inject that makes him smart.

We always regard mastering certain skills as the standard of intellectual development. Actually, skills are not important. Children before the age of 6 don't need to learn any skills at all. What they need to learn is how to master skills.

There is nothing in intelligence that is not originally derived from feeling. Intelligence is the development from feeling to concept. Sensation includes sight/taste/smell/touch/hearing.

"Genius is intense interest and persistent ecstasy."

The regret of the whole development of children may be here. On the one hand, when he has feelings, we destroy his feelings; On the other hand, when the child feels it, we don't match the words with his inner feelings in time. This is the importance of pairing.

We didn't get due attention and guidance in every sensitive period of growth, knowing that we were not respected when we "developed ourselves", and our profound and unique thinking ability was lost.

The whole purpose of education is to develop people's own potential.

Children develop independently according to internal reason, which is a natural and creative process. We are not the savior, we just help him to form concepts, connect concepts, distinguish concepts and develop thinking.

Idea: Education for children before the age of 6 is really crucial. Seeing so many ideas now, I really feel a little late. The children are in primary school. I think this is also the educational cognition that parents should have!

Feeling: a little guilty and a little excited. Guilt is that I missed the sensitive period of children's mental embryonic development. In addition to excitement, we can also explore the secrets of children's childhood through Montessori education.

Decision: Decide on the next book, The Secret of Childhood, because the cornerstone of Sun Ruixue's theory is Montessori's The Secret of Childhood, and many concepts can be found in this book.
