Emotion is the experience of attitude towards objective things, which is like sunshine and rain for the development of wisdom, the cultivation of virtue and the growth of the whole person. Without healthy emotions, there will be no perfect childlike innocence, which is not conducive to the formation of a sound personality. Therefore, we must not neglect the cultivation of children's healthy emotions.
First of all, we should meet the reasonable needs of children and cultivate and develop their positive emotions.
Demand is an important basis for emotion. While paying attention to meeting children's material needs, we should fully consider, respect and meet their reasonable spiritual needs. For example, teachers and parents should always appear in front of children with kind smiles and kind faces, talk to them kindly, give them proper touch and cuddle, and let them have a happy and positive emotional experience. On the premise of ensuring safety, we should dare to let go, provide them with necessary space and conditions as much as possible, encourage them to actively explore and promote the healthy development of their curiosity and thirst for knowledge.
Secondly, we should strive to create a relaxed and harmonious communication environment and atmosphere for children, give full play to the role of "touching money" and cultivate children's noble sentiments.
In today's society, the closed living condition and the loneliness of the only child in the family make it more important to create an environment and atmosphere for children to communicate. Therefore, on the one hand, adults should consciously communicate with children, especially timid children, and encourage them to dare to express themselves and be good at communicating with others; On the other hand, it is necessary to create conditions for children to communicate with friends. For example, teachers should regularly and purposefully organize children to talk freely and play interactive games such as "playing house". Parents should show their children around and allow and welcome children to bring friends to play at home. And pay attention to educating them to care for each other, love each other and help each other in their communication. By communicating the feelings of two or more parties (that is, "empathy"), children will be emotional and learn to share happiness with others and sympathize with their misfortunes. At the same time, we can experience the warmth and sincere friendship between groups and collectives, and cultivate their collectivism feelings, moral sense of personal behavior and positive attitude towards social communication.
In addition, it is necessary to create conditions for children's emotional expression and adjustment, and cultivate children's civilized moral behavior habits and good emotional cultivation. When some children's needs are not met, they will show negative emotions such as stamping their feet and crying. Adults should provide them with appropriate opportunities and occasions to vent, because suppressing dissatisfaction is harmful to their physical and mental health. But we should also educate children to learn to control and adjust their emotions and improve their self-control ability in emotional expression. To do this, teachers and parents must first learn to control their emotions. No matter what blows and misfortunes they encounter, they can always face their children and life with optimism and full enthusiasm, and never regard children as the object of venting bad emotions. Adults should be emotionally healthy and influence their children with their own examples. For today's only children, it is more important to consciously teach them to control their own needs and emotions for the benefit of others. This is an important guarantee for the healthy development of their emotional life.
Only by attaching great importance to the healthy development of children's emotions and inspiring children's enthusiasm, positive and optimistic emotions from an early age can we promote the germination of children's noble sentiments. Let them establish correct ideals and beliefs in the future, consciously adjust and overcome negative emotions, maintain vigorous energy, and adapt to the fast-paced and efficient needs of the future society.
