Introduction: Psychology is a science that studies human psychological phenomena and their psychological functions and behavioral activities under their influence, giving attention to both theory and application. Here is a paper about children's mental health education. Welcome to read!
[Abstract]
Children are the future of the motherland and the hope of the nation. Children's psychological status will directly affect their healthy growth throughout their lives. Therefore, paying attention to the factors of children's mental health problems is of great significance to the healthy growth of children and the transformation of educational strategies. However, in the process of preschool education, people often only pay attention to physical health education and ignore mental health education. Mental health has become an important part of the concept of health. People should see that children's mental health and physical health are equally important issues.

Case 1: A 3-year-old child does everything he wants and cries when he is slightly unhappy. Parents, grandfathers and grandmothers have no choice but to follow him.
Case: When playing indoor games, Xinxin sits by herself without playing games. At this time, Cheng Cheng built a small bridge with building blocks. Xinxin came and knocked it down, and Cheng Cheng cried.
Compared with other age groups, children's mental health problems are more reversible. Because the problems at this stage are still relatively minor, teachers will get twice the result with half the effort if they find them early and give them help and correction in time. In today's society, with the development of science and technology and the acceleration of the pace of life, modern people are under increasing social psychological pressure every day, so it is very necessary to have good psychological quality. It is very important for children in a critical period to cultivate good psychological quality and carry out psychological self-protection.
1. Kindergartens must give priority to mental health education. Kindergarten is the second environment for children to grow up and the earliest collective education institution for children to join. Mental health education is not to add a day's activities, nor to replace the original teaching activities, but to tap the inherent and potential factors of teaching activities. According to children's psychological characteristics and development needs, we should give better play to the educational role of mental health teaching activities and adopt an integrated mode in the organization form of activities. Breaking class boundaries, children participate in activities among groups and classes in primary schools, middle schools and large classes, from single peer interaction to mixed-age partner interaction, which expands children's communication occasions and opportunities and improves children's gregarious and cooperative nature. As a teacher, we should attach great importance to children's mental health education. In early childhood, teachers play a very important role in this respect. Teachers can play a good role in maintaining and promoting the healthy development of children's psychology; On the contrary, it will affect children's mental health development. Specifically, the role of teachers should include the following aspects:
1, it is hard work for teachers to influence the work of preschool teachers with healthy personality. Teachers have to face dozens of energetic children every day, eating, drinking, singing and dancing, and worrying about everything they teach. They are also afraid that their children will have an accident accidentally, and their psychological pressure is quite great. For example, many children in the class like to make "small reports" to the teachers every day, and these "small reports" are trivial things, which will inevitably make the teachers feel annoyed and bored over time. At this time, teachers should try to avoid bringing personal bad emotions to children, keep positive and happy emotions to communicate with children, analyze the reasons, and let children grow up healthily. Therefore, for kindergarten teachers, attaching importance to and strengthening their own mental health care is not only conducive to their own development, but also conducive to the healthy growth of the next generation.
2. Teachers should influence children's personality development with correct educational behavior. For children, teachers should pay special attention to their words and deeds, because a casual conversation and a casual mistake are all important factors affecting children's personality education. I'm afraid the class teacher will have such an experience. During some breaks, teachers will chat in class and casually talk about the children after work. Some children are smart, cute and likable, while others are slow to respond and don't like to talk. The speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional. How much harm will it do to their young hearts? From then on, they may become less confident, more introverted and less talkative, all because of a teacher's casual words, but some teachers don't realize this, instead, they think that children are still young and ignorant. Some teachers even reprimand, punish, ridicule and ignore children to deal with things and problems that happen to children. Children are very sensitive to teachers, which is absolutely harmful to their mental health. Some children are unwilling to go to kindergarten because they are reprimanded, punished and ridiculed by teachers, which brings great obstacles to the work of kindergartens and parents.
3. Teachers should pay attention to the infiltration of mental health education in the daily life of kindergartens. Teachers should create a warm, caring and democratic atmosphere for children from the moment they enter kindergarten in the morning. This requires teachers to strive to do:
(1) Care for children unconditionally. Only by loving children can we maintain a cordial attitude towards them and keep them in a positive and happy state of mind. For example, smiling at every child's problems every morning and saying goodbye to every child after class every day will make every child feel fully valued and accepted.
(2) Fully accept and respect children. First of all, respecting children is the prerequisite for their healthy spiritual growth. I have encountered such a thing. I went to a friend's house to play. As soon as I entered the door, my friends gave me a warm reception. At this time, I found a child at my friend's house absorbed in reading, and my friend motioned "Say hello to my aunt!" " But the child didn't respond, still staring at the book in his hand, and the friend raised the volume "Lele, say hello to aunt!" " "The child looked up and asked absently," Hello, Aunt! "But my friend is not satisfied:" Lele, why are you so rude? Next time you are rude, I will never buy you a book again! " "Children began to be unable to concentrate on reading, and their previous concentration was replaced by depression. Obviously, in this example, it is understandable that friends ask children to be polite, but it is conditional for children to abide by the rules. Their innate spiritual life gives them the freedom to choose attention, but children's compliance with norms is conditional. Their innate spiritual life gives them the freedom to choose their attention. When the interest is not in the expected behavior of adults, it is difficult for them to meet the requirements of adults. If they will like that friend, it is required that children should be given some freedom in time in their daily life and study, allowing them to express their wishes, behaviors and reasons. For things that children can't explain clearly, we should observe carefully, analyze the reasons for their behavior, find out their true thoughts, and then guide and educate them.
4. Teachers should actively carry out emotional education for children and cultivate their healthy interpersonal relationships. Emotional education for children will enable children to express their emotions correctly, learn to control their emotions with reason, and protect healthy emotions when encountering psychological emergencies. Cultivating children's interpersonal relationships seems simple, but it is not. In kindergarten, children's interpersonal relationship mainly includes teacher-student relationship and peer relationship. A large number of research results show that good peer relationship is a necessary prerequisite for mental health. Being friendly with peers can help children form a positive self-concept and lay a good foundation for their future adaptation to social life. On the contrary, it will cause various obstacles and behavioral problems to children's future social life. In front of the children, teachers should not talk too much, put the children aside, but put all their enthusiasm on them.
Second, create a good family rearing environment and promote the healthy development of children's psychology. Family is the first environment that children come into contact with in their life, and it is the most important and basic environment for children's psychological development. A perfect family structure, a good family interpersonal environment, parents' own literacy, their educational views and upbringing methods will leave a deep "imprint" on children's minds, and children's early experiences are particularly important to their psychology.
1, parents should try their best to cultivate their children's strong will and hardworking spirit. "Educator Suhomlinski once said:" Let children start work, take part in practice in person, suffer a little and get tired, which can not only explore the mystery of knowledge and cultivate their creativity, but also help to form their strong will and hard-working spirit. "Parents should try their best to make their children bitter and tired, which is good for their children. If conditions permit, children can experience life by themselves, such as cooking, collecting firewood and carrying water, feeding chickens and pigs, so that children can truly appreciate the hardships of life. Social life is complicated. In order to help children understand, parents can start with diet. Usually, I intentionally add bittersweet ingredients to food and make some foods that are not suitable for children's tastes. If the child doesn't eat because he is picky about food, I might as well make him hungry. When he is hungry, I will help him get rid of his picky eaters and adapt to life better. At the same time, let children understand that life is not only sweet, but also bitter. Only people adapt to life, or they will be eliminated by life, which is the same as starving to death if they don't eat according to their own tastes. Children are young and ignorant, with little life experience. In order to avoid detours and nip in the bud, children should be taught some daily life skills.
2. Parents should give their children the opportunity to learn independently and enhance their independence. Parents care too much about their children's food, clothing, housing and transportation, and there are too many forbidden areas, which make their children dependent and independent, and they are helpless when they encounter a little setback. In education, parents should overcome the traditional education mode, liberate their children's hands, mouth, eyes and ears, change "closed" into "open", and let their children exercise their independence in a free and relaxed environment. At the beginning, children want to do everything by themselves, but they are often "willing but unable", and they often can't do anything well, such as the floor getting dirty and the bowl breaking. However, parents should be patient and give their children the opportunity to exercise, instead of "relying on themselves", improve efficiency, save time, let children know what they can do, and let "I'll do it myself" become their motto.
3. Parents should trust their children, and building children's self-confidence means that people believe in their own psychological state. A confident person often has optimistic, cheerful and open-minded qualities, dares to innovate, strives for self-improvement and bravely faces the future. The cultivation of self-confidence should start with respecting children and maintaining their self-esteem. When children are still young, things are often unsatisfactory from the beginning, and sometimes it is simply a mess. The busier they are, the less parents can ridicule their children. "Go, go, go at the same time." "What do you do? It's a mess. " This distrustful attitude of parents will make children think that they are incompetent, have no confidence in the future, and be tied behind their backs. Therefore, parents should always say "you are really good" and "great" to their children. In the process of life and entertainment, children often have their own behaviors and opinions. Unlike adults, we should respect children's opinions, and we can't rudely accuse children of doing something wrong according to their own wishes, otherwise it will hurt their self-esteem and destroy their self-confidence. After all, children are still young and have limited abilities. When they encounter difficulties or failures and feel depressed, parents should actively and enthusiastically help them solve problems with their children and tell them that "failure is the mother of success". Many famous scientists found success after countless failures, so as to encourage children to get out of the shadow of failure, face failure bravely, analyze the reasons for failure, constantly sum up experiences and lessons, and face it bravely. Believe in children and let them believe in themselves "I can" and "I can". That's what kids do. The more you trust him, the higher his enthusiasm and self-confidence, so that he can actively learn new things and face challenges bravely.
Parents should pay attention to psychological communication with their children and cultivate their lively and cheerful personality, which always gives people a refreshing feeling. As soon as they encounter problems, they will think of various ways to try, even if they fail, they will not be depressed, and they will immediately think and seek other ways. The competition in modern society is fierce and the work pressure is great, but no matter how tired and busy parents are, they should spare some time to communicate with their children every day, make psychological communication, bridge the generation gap and become their friends. In this way, children will talk to their parents about everything, thus eliminating depression and maintaining a happy mood. The family should maintain a harmonious atmosphere, and everyone should be affable when speaking, and be affable to children, so that children can feel that their parents are affable, respectable and comfortable. Don't be a child's face when you are young. Comparing him with others, such as "being a little shorter than others" and "speaking a little slower than others", will make children feel "I am not as good as others", easily nervous and afraid of everything. Usually parents and children always like to let their children win in the competition, which is not good. Let the children understand that "there are mountains outside the mountains", "winning or losing is a common thing for military strategists", and do their best, "it is important to participate". Teach children to do their best in everything, but be optimistic about the results. "Laugh at life" and "The sky will be covered when it falls". This kind of good personality is the direction we strive to cultivate.
In a word, mental health education is a complex systematic project, which needs the cooperation of kindergartens, teachers and families, and needs organic combination and mutual penetration. Children are the future of the motherland and the hope of the nation. Only by effectively infiltrating mental health education into children's daily activities and integrating it into their daily lives, and making persistent efforts to make children's physical and mental health develop, can we hope to see beautiful flowers bloom in the future of the motherland.
