Aesthetic education can enable individuals to maintain a cheerful and lively childlike innocence after adulthood, and continue to develop their creativity.

By guiding children to place themselves in harmonious, pleasant, autonomous and creative situations, it allows children to experience rich emotions. Experience and feel the joy, exploration and creation charm in life and learning, thereby promoting the comprehensive and harmonious development of children. As Suhomlinsky said: Beauty is a powerful source of moral purity, spiritual enrichment and physical health. Early childhood aesthetic education has many functions such as deepening children's understanding, purifying emotions, influencing morals, and developing intelligence. It is an important way for children to develop and improve themselves. Early childhood aesthetic education is based on the aesthetic psychological characteristics of young children, using concrete and distinctive images of beautiful things to develop their interest and ability to feel beauty, understand beauty, express beauty, appreciate beauty and create beauty.
The task of kindergarten aesthetic education is to cultivate children's initial taste and ability to feel beauty and express beauty. Kindergartens and families should form a joint force in education, make full use of educational resources such as natural resources, daily life, art education, and social activities, and implement aesthetic education for children through multiple channels and in an all-round way to promote the comprehensive and harmonious development of children.
1. Art education is the main way of children’s aesthetic education
Art is the concentrated expression of human aesthetic practice. The beauty of art is intuitive, vivid, expressive and infectious, so it is the easiest to It can arouse children's emotional excitement, cultivate children's emotions, and bring children full and perfect enjoyment of beauty, which is of great significance to cultivating children's aesthetic qualities. Art education for young children mainly includes music education, art education, and literature appreciation, and each art form has its specific role. Art education develops children's artistic abilities, develops their brains, and cultivates their imagination and creativity through colorful activities such as singing, dancing, painting, and language.
(1) Music is an art of sound, which shapes artistic images and expresses people’s emotions.
In music education, teachers cultivate children's ability to feel music through music rhythm, music appreciation and singing and dancing skills, supplemented by methods of feeling beauty. For example: when singing the song "Lu Binghua", the teacher can show a series of pictures about the song or watch the dance video of the song, so that the children can feel the beauty of the melody, develop a love for music, and learn to express their deep love for their mother. .
(2) Art education is a visual art that uses lines and colors to shape images. Early childhood art education includes activities such as painting, paper-cutting, toy making, and clay sculpture. Teachers allow children to design and produce art works by themselves, thereby exercising their vision, strengthening their hands-on ability, cultivating their creativity, and giving full play to their subjectivity. In addition, children can improve their understanding and appreciation of art works during the appreciation activities of paintings. . Teachers must not engage in rigid imitation and simple technical exercises for children without the influence of art itself.
(3) Literature uses vivid, vivid, and beautiful language to shape characters or events. Children’s literary works such as fairy tales, stories, and children’s songs have vivid language and artistic images. Through listening, watching, speaking, etc., children experience the artistic images in literary works, increase their literary knowledge, develop their ability to understand and appreciate literature, and enrich their inner world. For example: when the teacher allows children to appreciate literary works, they actively guide the children to stimulate their aesthetic emotions, then experience the artistic image of the work, and use some beautiful words to describe it. At the end, the teacher summarizes the work in words that children can understand. The "central idea" can trigger children's thinking, let them experience truth, goodness and beauty in poetic fairy tales, purify and nourish children's minds, and provide correct guidance for children's healthy growth.
2. Infiltrate aesthetic education into children’s daily life
Daily life provides a good opportunity for children to carry out aesthetic education, so that children can be influenced by beauty in a subtle way. Kailov said: "In children's aesthetic education, their ignorance of the surrounding environment plays an important role." ?Children’s initial sense of beauty begins in daily life, so children’s aesthetic education should run through their entire lives.
(1) The family is the first school for children’s aesthetic education. Parents should provide children with a warm environment for their growth. Family aesthetic education for young children mainly includes three aspects: in terms of home decoration, focus on simplicity, beauty, cleanliness and tidiness, providing children with a living space that can cultivate their young minds and let them experience the beauty of form; in terms of family atmosphere, advocate harmonious interpersonal relationships, A harmonious family environment can give children a sense of happiness and security, which is beneficial to children's mental health; in terms of life attitude, it advocates a positive outlook on life and world view, and parents' attitude towards life and work attitude will have a subtle impact on children. moral values ??and good living habits.
(2) As an institution that supplements the insufficient family education, kindergarten is the main place for children to live and learn, and aesthetic education should also be integrated into daily life. First of all, pay attention to the layout of the kindergarten environment. Plant as many beautiful flowers and trees as possible outdoors, and make sure there is a large enough and safe playing space. Some pictures with educational significance are arranged indoors, as well as various works designed by the children themselves, so as to provide children with a better environment. Create opportunities to fully display their creative abilities, let children feel the beauty of campus at all times, and implement silent aesthetic education for young children. Secondly, to create a warm and harmonious atmosphere, teachers provide ideological and moral education to children, so that children can reflect the beauty of language, behavior and appearance in their interactions with teachers and peers. Finally, enrich children's lives through various games, activate their bodies and minds, and develop their ability to perceive and express beauty.
3. Expand the space for aesthetic education in nature and society
Early childhood aesthetic education should not be limited to daily life and study. Nature and society provide a broad space for early childhood aesthetic education. It is an important way for children's aesthetic education to guide children to observe and feel the beauty of nature. Chinese educationist Chen Heqin also advocates taking "nature and the big society" as the starting point, allowing children to learn directly from nature and the big society and feel the beauty brought by nature and society.
(1) Nature includes animals, plants and natural phenomena.
The aesthetic objects nature provides for young children are ever-changing, colorful, and the most authentic content. These vivid beauties are very easy for children to understand and perceive. Therefore, teachers should make good use of these natural resources. They can deeply feel the birds in the sky, the fish in the water, and the butterflies in the flowers through some outdoor activities such as walking, visiting, or outings, so that they can breathe more fresh air and appreciate the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers. Charming scenery can enhance children's ability to feel, appreciate and create beauty, develop rich sensitivity to beauty, and thus inspire children's love and pursuit of nature.
(2) The social environment includes individuals, families, collectives, markets, etc. Society is a big classroom for aesthetic education. Beauty is ubiquitous in the production and life of human society. Teachers should actively guide children to understand the beautiful things in society and provide aesthetic education to children in society. For example: visit various buildings, commodities and works of art to feel the beauty of material civilization; listen to advanced figures and deeds, understand heroic models, and feel the beauty of spiritual civilization; cultivate children's beauty in behavior and language in daily life and study , beautiful appearance. These will sow the seeds of beauty in children's young minds.
The famous French sculptor Rodin once said: Beauty is everywhere. For our eyes, it is not a lack of beauty, but a lack of discovery. ?Yes, beauty is everywhere. Children are the future of the motherland and the hope of the nation. We should treat every child with love, make full use of all available resources, implement aesthetic education for children in multiple channels and in an all-round way, and promote children's comprehensive Develop harmoniously to improve the quality of talents in future society.
