Mr. Chen Heqin, a famous educator in our park, put forward the educational principle of "let children do what they can". Children grow up to two or three years old and have a strong desire for independence. We should take advantage of the situation and start to cultivate children's initial self-care ability and basic habits in daily life. However, as the only child in modern families, parents are investing more and more in all aspects of their children, but neglecting the cultivation of their self-care ability. They spoil their children too much and do everything instead, which has become the biggest obstacle to their independent development. After entering the kindergarten, many children can't eat independently, wash their hands and faces, urinate and defecate, and wear simple clothes. Therefore, it is an important task for our teachers to help children adapt to kindergarten life as soon as possible and improve their self-care ability.

Second, 2-3-year-old children's self-care ability is weak.

First, parents care too much, and many things that children should do by themselves are used to being arranged by their parents. Children are the "little sun", "little emperor" and "darling" at home. Many adults around him at home make them happy, thinking that as long as the children eat well, they will be healthy. Therefore, many children have to feed, and some grandparents have to have a good meal with them, or let the children watch TV while feeding; Helping them urinate and get dressed is considered an obligation by adults. But I don't know that children's desire for independence will gradually disappear, resulting in dependence and slow development.

Second, I think children are young and have poor ability, and it is not too late to study in the future. In life, we often hear children's demands: "I'll wash it, I'll get it, myself … and so on". But the answer is often: "No, you are too young to do it." Many parents believe that when children reach a certain age, they naturally learn to dress and eat by themselves. Now that children are young, there is no need to rush to let them do it themselves, and the younger they are, the harder it is to teach, and the faster they go to college. Therefore, children who grow up like this have to do everything by themselves at home, almost all of which are arranged by adults, and they have developed a serious dependence psychology, which makes them lag behind other children in all aspects of development.

Third, I am afraid of trouble and feel that my child is slow to respond or eat dirty. Because the child's small muscles are underdeveloped, the self-control ability is poor, and the hand-eye coordination is not enough. Let the children eat by themselves, often on the table and on the ground. My parents are too dirty, so I think it is better to feed them quickly. Some children want to wash their hands by themselves, but their hands are not clean and their clothes are wet. His parents regretted not washing it for him. Children have to dress themselves, and as a result, their clothes are put on backwards, which delays working hours. Therefore, many parents think that it is better to do it by themselves than to let their children do it, which saves time and trouble. In fact, parents refuse to let their children do it by themselves, which hurts their self-esteem and self-confidence and hinders the development of their ability and independence.

Third, the purpose and necessity of cultivating the self-care ability of children aged 2-3.

2-3 years old is the key period of growth and development. Cultivating children's self-care ability through their learning participation, training and doing something within their power is conducive to children's action development. Children aged 2-3 are also the best time for ability training, and good living ability will benefit them for life. Therefore, combined with the age characteristics of children aged 2-3, we must be clear:

(1) It is necessary to cultivate the self-care ability of children aged 2-3 to adapt to the collective life of kindergartens. Children enter kindergarten from home and a new world, which enlarges their life circle, new environment and fun toys, and strongly attracts their curiosity. They like studying and living in kindergarten. But they can't take care of themselves such as washing their hands, eating and dressing, so they can't adapt to kindergarten life quickly.

(2) Cultivate the self-care ability of children aged 2-3, and promote the development of children's large and small muscle groups and sports coordination ability. The famous Italian educator Montessori pointed out that action education is one of the courses of daily life practice, and its main purpose is to cultivate children's self-management ability, sense of responsibility and good living habits. Cultivating the self-care ability of 2-3-year-old children will promote the development of children's large and small muscle groups and motor coordination ability, such as eating. Children not only learn the motor skills of hand feeding, but also develop their finger muscle flexibility and hand-eye coordination ability. Therefore, every time a child learns an action and ability, his large and small muscle groups and action coordination will also develop accordingly.

(3) Cultivating the self-care ability of children aged 2-3 helps to cultivate children's independence and self-confidence, independent of adults' personality.

2-3-year-old children's self-care ability is to learn to eat independently with a spoon, drink water with a cup, wash their hands, wear simple clothes and pants, etc. However, at first, children couldn't wear clothes, sleeves couldn't get in, and buttons didn't work well, all of which were helped by adults at home. Kindergarten should learn to wear it by itself. Button holes are not aligned. As long as it is aligned once or twice until it is aligned, the pants can't be pulled up. Pull hard until you put it on. In the process of children learning self-care skills, teachers give appropriate encouragement, establish children's self-confidence and let children know how to do their own things. While improving their abilities, children also cultivate good habits of facing difficulties bravely, daring to overcome difficulties, working hard and doing things independently. This kind of firmness, independence and self-confidence is a good personality quality for high-quality talents to adapt to the future society.

(4) Linking the cultivation of life ability with parents' work. Parents are children's first teachers, and it is inseparable from parents' cooperation to cultivate and train children well. To this end, we write the monthly training objectives in the contact cabinet at home and explain the contents for parents to understand. At the same time, parents are required to provide convenience for their children, clothes are light and easy for children to operate, and parents are required to conduct synchronous training at home. Hold a parent forum to publicize the importance of children's ability training, talk about training methods and children's progress, and teach some teaching skills. Many parents said: "After entering the park, children have a strong sense of independence and are willing to do many things themselves. Teachers help children develop good living habits and improve their self-care ability. "

With the development of quality education, it is very important to improve children's self-care ability. Mr. Chen Heqin attaches great importance to the cultivation of children's habits, and believes that "well-cultivated habits are blessed for life, and poorly cultivated habits are a lifelong suffering." Cultivating children's good living habits and self-care ability can lay a foundation for their lives.
