How to cultivate children's interest in learning games
Interest plays a role in stimulating learning motivation in human learning process, and learning interest plays a role in promoting children's development. Because children are young and have poor control, it is not easy to concentrate. If we are eager to impart knowledge mechanically, they will lose their interest and motivation in learning. Therefore, teachers should arouse children's interest in active participation in activities, stimulate children's motivation, and thus improve children's thinking consciousness. In teaching, we should strive to create lively materials and environment for children, so that they can gradually build up their interest and confidence in learning.

The difference between kindergarten teaching and other schools is that children are still young and need interesting teaching methods. Whether teachers use interesting teaching methods is the premise to stimulate children's interest in learning. Playing is a child's nature, so how to cultivate children's interest in learning? Games are children's main activities. In the game, children can not only learn knowledge, learn to abide by the rules of the game, learn to get along well with others, but also get physical exercise, strengthen their physique and promote health.

First, cultivate children's interest in art in games.

1. Stimulate children's artistic interest through manual games. Small class children are young, their hand muscles are not well developed, and their hand movements are very uncoordinated, but they are interested in hands-on activities. For example, draw a vase on paper, prepare red, yellow, blue, green, orange and other colors of crepe paper, let children paste notes of various colors on the vase into balls, and then paste the works on the wall to become a flower shop full of flowers.

2. Cultivate children's interest through color games. Children are interested in colors. In the process of playing with colors, let them know red, yellow, blue, green, black and white, and then look for various colors in the environment with them, and initially cultivate their ability to appreciate colors. For example, the teacher prints a handprint in the middle of a large piece of white paper, and then lets the children dip their hands in their favorite colors to cultivate their appreciation of colors. For example, the teacher prints a handprint in the middle of a big piece of white paper, and then asks the child to dip his hand in his favorite color, print it around the teacher's handprint and stick it on the wall. On this basis, let children draw reality and imagination at will, experience the fun of art activities, and fully mobilize children's subjective initiative in painting activities.

Second, in the game to cultivate children's interest in music

Music is the most popular course for children in kindergarten. We can use musical toys to cultivate children's interest in music. You can prepare a wide variety of sound equipment for children, such as pots and pans in the doll's house in the class activity area, as well as plastic bottles, glasses, spoons, plates, etc. Let children have the opportunity to fiddle with these devices at will, and use the different sounds they make to understand the nature of the sound, knowing that the sound can be long or short, high or low, some sounds are crisp and pleasant, bright and pleasant, and some sounds are rough and dull. When they beat these pronunciation devices, they can naturally master the most basic sense of beat, invisibly form various simple rhythm patterns, and further develop into the combination of several rhythm patterns to improve children's interest in learning music.

Third, cultivate children's interest in mathematics in games.

Learning mathematics is very difficult for adults, especially for children. When they first came into contact with math activities, many children showed little interest and even rebelled or were afraid to take math classes. For such children, it is very difficult to accept new mathematical knowledge without fully understanding the old mathematical knowledge. Mathematics is a systematic and logical subject. However, children's mathematics education has its own discipline characteristics and laws. It requires teachers to design and arrange mathematics teaching activities systematically and purposefully to guide children's understanding of mathematics.

1. Calculation in regional activities. Children play various roles in the game through imitation and imagination, and creatively reflect the real life around them. In the process of performance, children will inevitably come into contact with the quantitative and spatial relations of various things. There is a "supermarket" in the regional activities of our class. We classify the goods, determine their prices (all within 10 yuan), put ten dollars where we put them in the district card, and count the quantity and total price of the goods at the cashier after shopping, and add or subtract them. In these role games, we can see that the children not only have fun, but also review the mathematics knowledge such as addition and subtraction within 10 with ease and pleasure, which has cultivated the children's strong interest in learning mathematics.

2. Computing activities in sports games. In sports games, such as "Little Frog Catches Bugs", you can calculate how many figures, rectangles and squares you jump, and draw bugs on the lotus leaves, so that children can count how many bugs they catch. You can not only count the points yourself, but also know the graphics. Children in small classes can count. For children in large classes, teachers can let children know the calculation of addition and deepen their understanding of logarithmic meaning by calculating the skipped lotus leaves, which can not only exercise their thigh muscle strength, but also improve their calculation ability and let them learn mathematics interestingly.

3. Conduct calculation activities in intellectual games. When we "know the colors and compare the sizes", we can use the game of "Look at the graphic bottle caps" to let the children first pick out the bottle caps and bottles with the same shape, color and size, then put the bottle caps on the bottles and wait for the game. Through these games, we can see that intellectual games closely combine learning factors with game forms, which stimulates children's enthusiasm for learning calculation, thus stimulating their interest in learning.

Children's love for games is not only a reflection of children's physical and mental characteristics, but also the needs of children's physical and mental development. The organization of educational activities should be in life and games. Games not only reproduce children's existing knowledge and experience, but also provide a broad world for children's learning and the cultivation of various abilities.
