If you are the parents of preschool children, what do you think is the most important educational method you should follow? State your reasons.
A: There are eight common methods for children's family education: environmental edification, practical exercise, reasoning education, model demonstration, interest induction, suggestion reminder, activity exploration, rewards and punishments, etc. The key to the correct choice of family education methods for preschool children lies in correctly grasping the applicable conditions of various methods and clearly solving various existing problems. For example, praise and criticism are often used by parents to educate their children. The purpose is to let them know the consequences behind their actions and the evaluation they get, whether they are doing it right or wrong. Timely praise and criticism is to play a timely "strengthening" role in children's psychology. Praise is positive "reinforcement" and criticism is negative "reinforcement". When children are praised, they will have a pleasant psychological experience, which comes from their own sense of success and the infection of their parents' emotions. When parents praise their children, they usually have a warm attitude, a kind expression and a soft tone, and the children will naturally feel happy. This kind of experience can deepen their understanding of the meaning of doing good deeds, and they are willing to continue to do so in the future. Children will have a painful psychological experience when they are criticized. When parents criticize their children, they generally have a more serious attitude and a more severe tone, and the children will have temporary psychological tension. This painful psychological experience helps children to deepen their understanding of mistakes and avoid repeating them in the future. Children make progress in many right and wrong attempts. Timely praise and criticism can not only help children deepen their understanding of right and wrong, but also enable them to constantly develop their advantages, consolidate their achievements and learn from correcting their mistakes. But in reality, parents often praise or criticize their children too much, and they can't be realistic and appropriate. Excessive praise will make children feel complacent, encourage complacency and refuse to listen to negative opinions; Too much criticism will make children pessimistic, rebellious and resistant, and fail to achieve the purpose of education. Parents may wish to try the "one-minute education method", and I believe you will get unexpected results.
