What is the essence of preschool education?
Simply put, the purpose of education is to make people do good by setting an example.

Some people will say that in today's society, kind people are easily cheated and bullied, and they suffer a lot. For example, people queuing to buy tickets are cut in line by outrageous people, helping old ladies cross the street to get money and giving alms to beggars on the roadside. People are richer than themselves. ...

However, even so, there are still many people who insist on "goodness", because "goodness" is not the bad guy or "weakness" in people's mouth, but the good hope for the world, the persistence of human nature, the belief in morality and the protection of rules ... These are the most essential things to ensure that our children can be invincible in this society, and also the most precious things that our parents can give their children.

What is preschool education?

As the saying goes, "at the age of three, you look big, but at the age of seven, you look small." A person's quality and personality have been formed in early childhood, and it is difficult to change when he grows up. Therefore, to cultivate children, we should start with children and wait until the children reach puberty or high school or college. Parents may not have an influence.

When children's minds are not yet mature, the best educational method to cultivate children to do things and be human is to cultivate children's good habits. Through the cultivation of habits, behavior will be internalized into children's quality.

Confucius said, "Less is nature, and habit is nature." It means that good behavior habits developed as a child are as strong as those developed at birth.

The plasticity of children's brain function is relatively large, not only easy to accept new things, but also easy to form habits.

According to the survey of Japanese psychologists, study habits are stereotyped in the lower grades of primary schools. If special education is not carried out in the future, it is difficult to improve the habits formed.

Therefore, parents should pay attention to the development of children's good habits from an early age, mainly including the following eight aspects.

The content of children's habit formation

First, live a regular life.

A person's daily life seems less and less important in a modern pluralistic society, because everyone enjoys more and more freedom. But for a child waiting for irrigation, a reasonable and normal life is very important for his growth and effective study. I believe that parents who stay up late and work overtime should realize the harm of irregular life, let alone a child.

At the same time, some surveys have found that the first batch of children who joined the Young Pioneers in primary schools are not because they are smart and have high IQ, but because they all have common characteristics and life rules. After class, they go to the bathroom first, then drink water, listen carefully in class, and write their homework neatly.

Second, follow the routine.

Now parents are exposed to many educational concepts. The most popular views are love and freedom. They think that "children are born free" and "we should give children more freedom". However, please note that the premise of freedom is rules, and freedom regardless is not true freedom.

We live together in society, and rules are the basis of our established practice and peaceful coexistence. Therefore, it is necessary to cultivate children's awareness of rules from an early age. After all, no one likes children who shout in public.

Preschool is a process in which children aged 6-7 who can't adapt to the first grade of primary school learn and adapt to routines. Obedience is to let children know the rules and obey them, such as discipline and rules. Routine includes life routine, kindergarten routine and social routine.

Children at home and kindergarten should not only be safe, eat well and sleep well, but also have a normal life and good habits.

Third, actively participate.

Teachers and parents should encourage children to participate boldly and actively to exercise their self-confidence. In real family life, there are many small things that children should be encouraged to do independently, such as washing hands, gargling, washing feet, washing handkerchiefs and socks, making the bed, packing toys and doing their own things, so as to cultivate children's personal qualities of quick hands and quick eyes.

Gradually let the children understand that you are a member of the family and this family has a part of you. You should learn what to do for family building. Please be careful not to exchange money for children to do housework.
