Aesthetic education should cultivate children's ability to feel, appreciate, express and create natural beauty, social beauty and artistic beauty, so that children can establish noble aesthetic ideals, correct aesthetic concepts and healthy aesthetic interests and cultivate new people with all-round development. The goal of family aesthetic education should be multifaceted, and the goal of aesthetic education must not be limited to letting children master one or two artistic skills. To this end, parents must pay attention to the following points:
To improve children's aesthetic quality in an all-round way, the development of children's artistic potential in a certain aspect must be based on the improvement of the overall aesthetic quality. If a child develops one or two skills unilaterally, it is impossible to succeed, just like Gai Lou in the desert. Some parents don't pay attention to the improvement of their children's overall aesthetic quality, but only let their children study a musical instrument or painting hard, and can't train musicians and painters. 65438-0998 The comprehensive quality examination was set up for the first time in the Eighth National TV Grand Prix for Young Singers, which was intended to improve the humanistic quality of singers and aroused enthusiastic response. Parents who are interested in making their children succeed in the art field should improve their children's aesthetic quality by imparting aesthetic knowledge, appreciating natural beauty, social beauty and artistic beauty, expressing beauty with art and creating beauty in life, so as to lay a rich foundation for their children to become artists in the future.
Deliberately deciding to study art projects is a concentrated expression of beauty. Most parents want their children to master one or two artistic skills. So what kind of art should children learn? Or which to learn first and which to learn later? If parents only take studying art as their children's general entertainment, they can let their children choose freely. If parents want their children to learn art to a higher level and become a specialty, they should seriously consider it. First, we must understand the characteristics of children's intelligence. Usually, children with developed intuitive image memory have better memories of shapes, pictures, colors and sounds, which are suitable for learning art; Children with developed abstract memory are good at words, concepts, mathematics and memory. Such children have little artistic potential. Furthermore, some children with developed intuitive image memory are auditory and some are visual. The former is suitable for learning music, while the latter is suitable for learning art. Secondly, it depends on children's interests. Children who have artistic potential but are not interested can't learn art well, because learning art requires sincere feelings, parents should also find ways to arouse their children's enthusiasm for learning art, and then there are family conditions, including whether parents have artistic expertise, family economic strength, family space and so on. Parents should carefully decide their children's art projects according to the above basic conditions, and invite art teachers as staff when necessary.
Give play to the subtle role of aesthetic education
Aesthetic education is to guide and infect children with beautiful things, so that some thoughts, opinions and emotions will subtly affect children's moral sentiments and penetrate into their hearts bit by bit. The figurative metaphor is: "sneak into the night with the wind and moisten things silently." Parents should master this feature of aesthetic education, and let their children exert a subtle influence in aesthetic education. To this end, parents should pay attention to the following points:
Strengthening the artistic atmosphere of the family can be seen from the growth history of many artists that the influence of family environment is very important: Cai Wenji, an outstanding poetess in the Eastern Han Dynasty, is inseparable from her growing up in a poetic family; Mozart's father in Austria was a very talented court musician, and Mozart became a famous composer, which was directly related to his father's influence. Bao Mei and Mei Baojiu are the children of Mei Lanfang, a famous Peking Opera master in China. Influenced by their father, they grew up to be Peking Opera artists. In order to cultivate children's aesthetic quality, parents should consciously play beautiful music at home, hang bright paintings and calligraphy, and place exquisite works of art, so that children can live with art and be constantly influenced invisibly. Artistic parents can often play famous songs and splash ink at home to make their children more excited and eager to try. For parents who lack artistic expertise, it is necessary to learn and master one or two artistic skills while they are still young, from the perspective of cultivating children and cultivating their own sentiments. Moreover, as long as you put your heart into it, you can certainly learn it.
Go outdoors to collect beauty. Beauty is everywhere in nature and society. Parents should always take their children to the colorful outdoor world and collect beauty in the vast world. The vast Yuan Ye, towering mountains, lush forests, green lakes, fragrant flowers and laughing insects and birds in nature can all give children beautiful enjoyment; People create beauty every day in social life. Clean streets, magnificent buildings, eye-catching advertisements and beautiful clothes can all excite children. Parents should make full use of these wonderful materials to infect their children and promote their development in many aspects. Some parents know the importance of nature to their children and take their children to the mountains or the seaside for a few days every summer. At the seaside, they go to pick up shells, collect seaweed and catch crabs every day, and build mountains, islands and bays on the beach; In the forest, they know trees, flowers and plants, and take pictures of beautiful scenery and flowers with cameras. Beautiful nourishment makes children grow up healthily, and they can write beautiful compositions and draw their own pictures when they are very young.
Discuss beauty with children. Children are young, with low cognitive ability and weak aesthetic feeling. Generally, listening to music, looking at paintings and visiting parks can't fully achieve the aesthetic purpose. Parents should pay attention to guiding their children to observe carefully, experience deeply and imagine boldly in the process of appreciating art and feeling natural beauty and social beauty. For example, when visiting places of interest, children should be guided to observe the color, structure and style of this monument, and pay attention to the harmony between this monument and its surrounding environment and appreciate its architectural style. When watching cultural programs with children, parents should inspire their children to compare the language, expressions, movements and costumes of different roles, and tell which ones are good-looking and which ones have shortcomings. There is no absolute standard for the beauty of things, which can be explored from different angles.
