None of us are particularly brave people. But it doesn't matter. "Courage goes with fear." Go ahead, go ahead. A sense of accomplishment and the experience of overcoming fear will be our medals of courage and twinkling stars.

Dear Elk, Mother is a person without courage:
When you are in a bad mood, you will be particularly afraid of the dark. When crossing the road, the street lamp is not lit and you dare not speed up to leave.
When you work overtime, when you are in the office, you will be scared stiff by the sudden small noise.
When you see a cockroach, you will scream When you meet a big dog on the road, you will retreat to the side of the road and let it pass first.
I will be afraid of the night of lightning and thunder, and I will be afraid of strange environment.
You are going to kindergarten this year. You are excited and looking forward to it, and often say to us, "I am grown up, and I can go to a big school!" " I'm a big sister, yeah yeah, I'm going to college! 」
I'm very worried about what you expect:
Will you adapt well?
Will you like the school our family chose together?
What will you do in case of a situation?
I am very much looking forward to going to school, but I am disappointed because I find sitting in the classroom too boring.
Will you like school days? Do you feel anxious in the new environment?
I'm worried that you, like me many years ago, protested that you don't like the atmosphere in the classroom, but you don't have enough support to face this problem.

My mother read Male's Brave Little Train: Carl's Special Mission. Like other previous books of Mr. Male, this book is also a book that encourages him to interact with children. He dedicated this book to his eldest daughter, salted fish, who was cautious, shy and calm, congratulating her on breaking through the things that frightened her in the process of growing up.
▲ "This book is dedicated to my nine-year-old daughter, who is shy and cautious by nature. At present, she has broken through the big and small fears. 」?
Apart from the theme taken from children's personalities, this book is a collective creation of the whole family. It depends on the leaves drawn by mother and the words written by children. It is the result of the cooperation of the whole family. How I hope that when you grow up, we can do something together-maybe cook together, maybe write programs together, maybe exchange diaries. Oh, I am looking forward to it.

▲ "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, breathe slowly. Don't panic, giant knight, I'm not afraid of little soldiers! 」?

The story goes something like this:
The train freight station in the ancient town is also where Carl and his mother Wendy work on the little blue train. Santa Claus came to Goo Goo Town and wanted to ask Wendy to help him send a "gift of courage" to the particularly brave children. But on the eve of departure, Wendy suddenly collapsed. Carl took on his mother's task. In order to prepare for his departure, he will pass through many places he is afraid to go. Can he finish the task smoothly?
Reading the story, Carl set out with a "badge of courage", which reminded me of the "mother's heart" prepared by Xiao Yuma for Xiao Yuqing, who just went to school: "The power of mother's heart is fermented in a cheerful light rain to go to school", which mentioned that children can use the lucky things given by their mothers to help them overcome the anxiety of separation.
Dear Elk, although you have been sent to the nursery since childhood, and you have long been used to the time when the whole family goes out to work and go to school, should I also prepare a medal of courage for you?
▲ Go forward with the "badge of courage" and hope to break through the difficulties! ?

I have never been the kind of decathlon mother who is not afraid of anything. I can't do more things than I can, and the most I say to you is "wait for me, I'll check online and see what to do"; I'm afraid of the dark and dogs crossing the road. I always tell you frankly that I'm afraid of this. Wait for me later.
At first, someone threw cold water on me, thinking that in front of the children. Parents should be determined, but after watching Don't say "It won't hurt" when taking children to the dentist, I think it's better to discuss the problems we may need to face than to hide our cowardice.
"American" Parents "magazine pointed out that Scottish research found that when nurses tried to comfort preschool children and told them that they would not feel pain, even if they were doing painless molar" pit and fissure sealing ",the children would feel more pain. Children who are not nervous at first have a 66% chance of becoming nervous after listening to the self-righteous comfort of adults. Children who are already afraid have a 75% chance of feeling worse.
Praise your child's performance in detail, such as "your mouth is wide open, very good!" " Or "it's great that you have a motionless posture!" On the contrary, it can help children feel distracted and scared, and knowing that they are doing the right thing will make them feel more at ease. Excerpt from "Never Say" When you take your child to the dentist, it won't hurt you.
Teacher Li Kunshan once wrote an article entitled "Courage is not fear, but advancing with fear". Slowly, I began to believe that in the face of our common fears, there will always be noble people or solutions at critical moments.
Like a small train Carl slowly through the dark tunnel, "Hoo-nothing! 」
▲ After experiencing what you are afraid of, you will find that it is not so terrible. ?
There will always be an answer, and there will always be a result.
"Courage advances with fear. 」
