In fact, there is no clear answer to this question, because children before the age of 3 have an important task, is to learn life and some independent hands to adapt to society and the upcoming life of the kindergarten, whether to let the child to continue to play or early to receive education, it depends on the situation.
What are the conditions that a child needs to meet in order to receive early educationDoes the child have the ability to live on his or her own? For example: eating, going to the toilet, dressing, undressing, walking, drinking, cleaning up other personal items such as toys, and sleeping.
Does the child have enough curiosity and exploration? For example: is curious about new things and has a tendency to explore them; has a tendency to break up the house; likes to go out and play, especially to new places.
Does the child like to imitate? Children who enjoy and excel at imitation are really gifted learners, imitating their parents' words and actions, movie and TV shows, and dances.
Does the child have a reading habit? Reading habits are mostly cultivated by parents, carefully observe whether the child can turn the pages of the book under the influence of parents; whether they like to listen to their parents tell stories, even if the child can neither read nor understand ......
Let the child fully equipped with the above abilities, is to take a period of time to develop, so parents do not need to Torn between whether the child before the age of three should play or early education? Because if you don't have the above ability, it is difficult to achieve the established effect of early education; and purposeless play games, the same will also wear down the child's desire to know.
So what kind of parenting is more appropriate for children before the age of 3?I don't want to share too many theories about parenting here, but just want to share my personal experience of parenting. I can't talk about my experience because every family is unique and every child is different, so you can learn from them, but you can't just blindly copy others' experiences.
My child is almost 2 years old, I heard a lot of friends around the issue of early childhood education, some friends early to the child on the early childhood classes, some friends are to buy a lot of picture books every day to give the child a bedtime parent-child **** read, and I prefer to take the child out, go outside more walk around, shopping malls, parks, on the road, public **** transportation, ancient towns, attractions, etc., will let the child personally, and will be the first time in the world. And so on, will let the child personally feel and experience some of the things in social life, because the child's ability to understand the language at this stage is very limited, but the child is able to through the sight, smell, taste to personally perceive the sweet and sour, real feelings than language teaching to be countless times more useful.
So this way of experiencing, practicing, and imitating behavior is "play" or "early education"?
On the one hand, it gets rid of some of the established early education process, and on the other hand, it lets the children fly free in the real world,
Of course, the parents in the process of taking the children to the outdoor experience, especially pay attention to the protection of the child's safety.
The reason I chose to do this before my child turned 3 was to give my child a better chance of adapting to society, and to provide a good foundation for independence in the kindergarten community.
So is it true that children are not taught anything at all during their formative years? The first thing you need to do is to teach your child how to read and write a book.
The next step is to observe the child's interests. We usually go to work, and the child follows the old man in a square dance, so the interest in music and dance is particularly strong, so we also love to play all kinds of music for the child to listen to, so that the child can dance to his heart's content.
There are other interests, once found, parents should pay attention to, cultivate children's interests, develop children's hobbies, these are very important, but also the child's future growth process is indispensable to an important step.
