Many people think that babies can do nothing but eat and sleep. Why educate them?

In fact, the baby began to acquire knowledge and develop cognition from the first day of birth, but his expression ability is limited, so he can't tell you how smart he is, so don't underestimate his ability.

Early education is not about instilling knowledge into children. Instead, it provides a suitable exploration environment for children, helps them to better understand and recognize the world in the form of "games", and promotes their comprehensive and balanced physical and mental development.

Why do you want to participate in early education?

0-3 years old is the most important period for children's brain development.

1) The baby's brain weighs 400g at birth, which accounts for 1/4 of the adult's brain. By 6 months, the weight of the brain accounts for 50% of the weight of the adult brain, and at the age of 3, the proportion reaches 80%.

2) At birth, there are about 50 trillion synaptic connections, which is equivalent to110 of adults. When children are 3 years old, the number of synaptic connections is about 1000 trillion, which is roughly twice that of adults. By the age of 14, the number of synaptic connections in children is basically the same as that in adults.

At the age of 3- 14, synapses begin to be pruned.

Synapses that have been studied and stimulated will not disappear, and those that have not been stimulated will be eliminated. Therefore, if children receive more stimulation at an early stage, they will be smarter and more conducive to future development.

There is a sensitive period (also called critical period) for the growth and development of neurons in the human brain. If they develop well during this period, they will often produce unexpected good results.

On the contrary, once it has adverse effects during this period, it may have irreversible adverse effects on people's intelligence.

Who is the target of early education?

The first target of early education is children aged 0-3.

The peak of brain cell proliferation is from birth to 6 months, and the peak of myelination in nervous system is before 3 years old.

Newborns, like fetuses, not only need adequate nutrition supply, but also need sustained and moderate external stimulation to further promote the development of his nervous system.

At this stage, the child's behavior has undergone tremendous changes: from a baby who can only shake his hands and kick his feet in bed, he will slowly climb, walk, run, jump, and even eat and draw by himself ... This stage is the most rapid development and plasticity of the child's brain.

Establishing children's inner sense of security is another important task for parents aged 0-3.

You will see some people around you who don't give up easily when encountering difficulties and are willing to face difficulties when encountering challenges. They have a feeling in their hearts, "I can, I will succeed."

But this feeling does not come from rational judgment, but from an intuition in the subconscious, which is perceptual but firm and a sense of security.

The sense of security comes from the initial interaction with the closest person in the child's life, and it also affects how the child looks at the people around him, the outside world and himself now and in the future.

Being a parent may be one of the most complicated and difficult jobs in the world. In the process of getting along with children, we will find that there is too much to learn.

Therefore, the second target of early education is the parents of children.

Being a parent may be one of the most complicated and difficult jobs in the world.

In the process of getting along with children, we will find that there is too much to learn.

First of all, we need to understand the growth and development of children. Only by understanding the characteristics of children's growth and development at each stage can we train and guide children in a targeted and scientific way, which will have a multiplier effect on children's growth.

Secondly, we need to learn some nursery rhymes, games and communication skills to help us interact with our children with higher quality. Early education institutions, which is also the form of early education for most parents.

Professional early education institutions have a scientific and systematic curriculum system, which will make the curriculum design diverse and interesting for babies of different ages, and constantly adjust and optimize it in practice.

Educational concept of early education at the age of 0-3.

1, dear children meet the needs

Adhere to the principle of close combination of protection and education, ensure that there is education in education, and pay attention to protection in education; Natural infiltration and integrated education. Promote the harmonious development of infants' physiology and psychology.

3. Pay attention to development and adapt to development.

Emphasize the overall care, concern and concern for the growth process of infants and young children. In educational practice, we should grasp the mature stage and development process; Pay attention to multiple intelligences and development differences; Pay attention to the opportunities and development potential gained from experience. Learn to respect the law of children's physical and mental development, conform to children's nature, and let children develop naturally, harmoniously and fully in a rich and suitable environment.

4. Different people open up their potential.

Pay attention to the development differences between infants and children in development and health, perception and movement, cognition and language, emotion and sociality, advocate more personalized education, and make the teaching protection work based on natural differences. At the same time, we should fully realize that many beautiful qualities and wisdom in life are acquired in the early stage of life, so we must pay close attention and seize the opportunity. It is necessary to provide appropriate stimulation, induce various experiences, make full use of learning situations in daily life and games, develop potential and promote development.
