Freud, one of the greatest psychologists in the 20th century, believed that 1-3-year-old babies were in the period of anal desire; Children aged 3-5 are in the reproductive stage, and the baby in this period is characterized by a strong interest in shit and fart. The specific performance is that the baby likes to hold back for a while and always waits until he can't hold back before running to solve it. The reason is because the baby has made a new discovery, and they suddenly realize that it will be cool to hold back for a while before urinating, so the child will get the "pleasure brought by excretion" by controlling urination and defecation, and experience the sense of strength and control gained from it. In short, children like to shit and fart, which is the demand of physiological development. Exploring the mysteries of life is a pleasure for children. Faced with children's curiosity, parents should give reasonable guidance.
"Superman" is a poop picture book specially made for preschool children, which can let children know about poop before going to primary school and learn how to use the squat toilet in school. After the text, there are knowledge of healthy defecation and a toilet encyclopedia introducing various toilets. Humorous words with humorous illustrations make children learn health knowledge happily and no longer afraid of school toilets.

Let the children introduce themselves at the opening ceremony. I was surprised to find that the three children who came to the story meeting yesterday arrived as scheduled today, praising their persistence! Today's children are 6 years old, and the youngest is less than 1 year old.
Then the question is introduced: Does the child defecate every day? (Toilet habit) What is the smell and shape of stool? (Observation) What do you do when you defecate? (in the process of going to the toilet) children are scrambling to answer, which is indeed the children's favorite topic ~
3, picture book reading
Speaking of poop, children will think of the words "dirty" and "disgusting", but in fact defecation is particularly important to our health. Today, we invited the poop superman to introduce the important knowledge about poop to the children, and then she turned into a "poop superman" ~
Superman said that if we don't defecate in time, the poop in our bodies will get angry. Once the poop is angry, we will fart straight, or fidget, and our stomachs have been bloated, which is particularly uncomfortable.
What should children do to get rid of the poop in time? Superman introduced four good methods: (1) Eat more vegetables (show vegetables prepared in advance); (2) Drink a proper amount of water (show the water prepared in advance); (3) Do more exercise (prepare picture book expansion activities, which will be introduced later); (4) defecation in time, can't bear to defecate (show the alarm clock prepared in advance). Finally, poop superman told the children a defecation formula: you can't drag the stool, go! ~

At the end of the activity, guide the children to form a good habit of eating fruits and vegetables.
5, practice summary
Children all over the world love "shit and fart". They not only like to talk, but also like to observe and compare, such as observing the shape of their feces. "Look, I pulled like a train today!" For another example, children will compete to see who urinates farther. When children are particularly interested in shit and fart, it happens to be the child's sexual budding period. The shit in a child's mouth is related to a sense of control, self-awareness and initial exploration of the body. When children frequently use such foul language, does it mean that children have become bad? Of course not. It is in the process of constantly understanding and exploring their own bodies that children learn to control their own bodies and gain more psychological energy. Therefore, when children show off their shit or fart, or talk freely, parents should give him understanding and respect, and don't always put on a straight face, disgust and criticism. Because this is a necessary stage for every child to grow up, regardless of age or race. Looking back carefully, didn't we all grow up talking about shit when we were young? When parents are at a loss about such topics and don't know how to tell their children, they can read some classic picture books of "shit and fart" with their children. When children laugh, it can not only stimulate their interest in reading, but also enable them to learn some interesting little knowledge, enhance their imagination and get out of this sensitive period smoothly. Stories warm people's hearts, and stories influence a person's behavior subtly. Say goodbye to preaching and warm Meng Wa's heart with stories. This is the purpose of this picture book story meeting.
The whole activity was lively, fully interacted with the children, and the children were tolerant and infectious, so I naturally enjoyed it. After the activity, the four parents refused to leave, even talked well and asked me if I was a teacher (snickering); One by one came running to ask me what grade I was teaching (snickering); Jessica Hester Hsuan, a three-and-a-half-year-old baby, took my hand and asked her if she would come tomorrow. When she was taken back to dinner by her grandmother, she reluctantly said, "Aunt, thank you, I will miss you!" " God, this little warm man almost made me cry! I thank the children for their love. Go on and live up to their love.
In the process of chatting with parents, I also found that children will be interested in "shit and urine" for a period of time, which is a necessary stage to know their own bodies. Instead of being anxious and disgusted, it is better to study together and let the children know it correctly. The process of learning cognition cannot be boring. Superman poop is just one of them, and there are many interesting picture books for toilet instruction, such as yeah, ass, really comfortable poop, poof, fart, going to the toilet and so on. Introduce relevant picture books to parents, emphasize the value of picture books for parenting, and use picture books as a carrier to increase children's intimacy.
It is worth noting that I took my daughter to a story meeting today. Because she didn't take a nap, she cried at the beginning of the story meeting of 18, and her mood was a little broken. Finally, the story meeting had to be postponed for ten minutes. Follow-up should pay attention to if the child is in a bad state, try to let her rest at home. Only when the mother is in good condition can she present a wonderful story.
