Cultivating children's good eating habits is one of the important tasks of kindergartens, and it is also a concern of small class teachers and parents. Nowadays, most children grow up in the family mode of 42 1, and enjoy the care of two or even four adults at home. After entering the park, they need to learn to eat independently and serve themselves, which is the beginning of their study. As a small class teacher, we should first learn to be good at observing the differences of each child and adopt interesting and different teaching methods to cultivate good eating habits of small class children.

Cultivation of small class children's eating habits

Childhood is a critical period for children's growth and development, and good eating habits are of great significance to children's healthy growth. After the beginning of school, I learned that most of the children in the class are fed by their parents at home, and many children have developed the bad eating habits of playing after eating, being partial to food, being picky about food, dispersing grains and chewing slowly. After entering kindergarten, parents are also very worried about their children's food. When entering and leaving the park, parents often ask, "Teacher, how did my children eat today?" "How much did you eat?" Wait for questions. As a small class teacher, we should make use of the characteristics of small class children's young age and strong plasticity to cultivate good eating habits and correct their bad eating habits in time when they enter the new environment of kindergarten. We can make preparations before meals, cultivate good habits during meals, arrange activities and contact parents after meals, and promote the formation of children's good eating habits through family cooperation.

First, pre-meal preparation activities

(A) to develop a good habit of washing hands before meals

Children should wash their hands before eating. Washing hands is mainly to let children master the order of washing hands and keep their hands clean after washing hands. The steps and methods of teaching children to wash their hands correctly in the theme activity of "This is Me" in our diversified courses. I read children's songs in class first and teach children to wash their hands. "Pull up your little sleeve and show your little wrist. Turn on the tap and wash your little hands. Turn off the tap and pick up the soap. Turn your hand three times and put down the soap. Rub the small palm first, then rub the small back. Rub your nails and wrists. Turn on the tap and the bubbles will be washed away. Turn off the tap and shake it three times. Open the towel and dry your wet hands. Small hands washed, bacteria ran away. Wash your hands frequently, we are all healthy. " Practice under the tap after you are familiar with it, so that you can wash your hands while reading children's songs, which is both childlike and avoids the small problem of children washing their hands and playing with water.

(B) to create a good dining atmosphere

It is necessary to create a good dining environment for children, so that children can eat in a good mood and have fun. Play a relaxing music before eating to calm the children's mood. Children in small classes are still in the stage of intuitive thinking, and they are easily influenced by specific things. Children like to imitate teachers very much. In view of this psychological characteristic of children, I use the time to go to work after meals to induce children. Use exaggerated actions and language to express your love for this dish. Children are influenced by teachers and fall in love with dishes they don't like.

Second, the habit cultivation in the process of diet

Children in small classes tend to eat less, eat slowly, be picky about food, be partial to food, and have scattered meals. I have taken the following small measures to solve these problems:

1, role game

Children in small classes like to play dollhouse games best, and they like to play adults to take care of dolls, so. I designed the game "Feed the doll" to let the children experience the feeling of feeding the doll. Say nursery rhymes while feeding: baby, come on, open your mouth, take a bite, a spoonful of rice, a spoonful of vegetables, chew and swallow. Over time, children will eat by themselves, just like feeding dolls during the game, which unconsciously speeds up the speed of eating.

2. Interesting video

Make full use of modern information technology to stimulate appetite. For example, today's food is mainly carrots, so I designed a cartoon carrot. Let the children watch the cartoon "Carrot" and play the game of "Super Variety" first, and then introduce the delicious and nutritional value of carrots to the children through the cartoon "Rabbit" to effectively stimulate their appetite. If I eat kelp, I will play a video of aquatic life. Combine the pictures and ask the children some questions: "This is kelp, where did it come from?" The child said the answer, and we went on to say, "Oh! This is the smell of the sea. What a special taste, please try it! "

3. Patiently guide and dispel children's psychological dependence.

There are often such children in the class who can eat but don't want to eat by themselves. They have to wait for someone to feed them. Sheng Sheng in my class is such a child. At lunch, I put my hand on my lap, without a spoon or a bowl. I looked at our three teachers as if to say, come and feed me.

For such a phenomenon, we must first achieve the consistency of education among teachers: resolutely talk but not do. Sitting next to you to remind you more can also be encouraged by gamification language. For example, see who is the best and can send things to the big cave; See who has the most capable hands and can support himself. However, we can't feed them. Give timely praise to children who eat well or make progress.

4. Put a public garbage tray.

When children eat, they often eat in a mess. At this time, I will put a public garbage tray on each table to guide the children to pick up the food that has fallen on the table. In the dining posture, we should pay attention to remind children to stick their chest on the table, hold the bowl with their hands, and don't let the rice "run" under the table.

Three. Finishing after meals and hygiene habits

Among the seventeen teaching principles put forward by Chen Heqin, an early childhood educator, the first one is that "children should be allowed to do whatever they can". What children can do by themselves, such as washing dishes, wiping their mouths and hands, should be done by themselves, which is also an opportunity to cultivate their self-service ability. You can also arrange activities for students on duty to cultivate children's awareness of serving others and the collective. "Be a Chinese teacher, be a middle school, and make progress while doing." From listening to the teacher's teaching method to practicing by yourself, the teacher can help them the first time, and the second time, but slowly, it can let the children finish it independently and gradually become a habit.

Fourth, family education, form a joint force of education, and consolidate children's good eating habits.

The cultivation of good habits requires long-term accumulation and tempering, as well as the active cooperation of parents. First of all, parents should set an example. Teachers and parents should reach a * * * understanding, form a joint educational effort, and cultivate children's good eating habits.

Parents should cultivate their children's ability to eat with spoons at home, and can't play while eating. Family members abide by the rules of the dining table. For example, before eating, children can be guided to pay attention to who is not sitting at the dining table, so that children feel that eating must be done at the dining table. You can also let children participate in the placement of bowls and chopsticks, so that children feel that it is time to eat. Try to eliminate the factors that cause children to play during meals. When a child spills rice on the table, parents should guide the child to pick it up and cultivate the habit of saving food.

Parents try to cut the dishes evenly when cooking, so as not to clip them up when children eat. In addition, children should pay more attention to cooking. In addition to reasonably matching the color, smell and taste of food, we should also play a little imagination, such as putting food in a shape or cartoon pattern that children like, so as to stimulate children's appetite and reduce picky eaters.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) conclusion

Bacon, the most important philosopher in the English Renaissance, said: "Habit is really a tenacious and huge force, which can dominate a person's life. Therefore, people should cultivate a good habit through education from an early age. " Three meals a day is directly related to the growth and health of children, which is of great significance to their growth and life. Parents and our kindergarten teachers should adhere to and cultivate children's good dining habits for a long time. I believe that through our efforts in all aspects, children will be able to develop good dining habits, have healthy physical growth and meet challenges.
