Preschool children refer to children who have not yet reached school age. At present, the school age of children in our country is 6 years old, so all children before 6 years old are preschool children.
Age division of children
Infantile period: 1~ 12 months.
The period from umbilical cord rupture to 28 days after birth is called neonatal period.
A baby from 6 months to 12 months is called an older baby.
Early childhood: 1~3 years old
Preschool: from the age of 3 to the age of 6-7 before entering primary school.
School age: 6 ~ 12 years old
Puberty/adolescence: 13 years old to18 years old.
In fact, to put it simply, children are preschool children before they go to primary school. Preschool education refers to the education before children enter primary school before the age of 6. In fact, it is very important to do a good job in preschool education. So what education do parents need to do for preschool children?
2. What kind of education do preschool children need?
1, cultivate hobbies
Cultivate children's hobbies and pay attention to children's hobbies, not adults' hobbies. We often graft our hobbies on children, but forget that what we like is not necessarily what children like. But children's hobbies are inseparable from their parents. This is because parents lead their children to everything they touch. Children don't have much contact with things. How can they know which one they like best? Many parents will say that children are always hot for three minutes, and they like this for a while and that for a while, but have you ever wondered if you have exposed your children to other things while saying that you like this?
For example, I want my children to learn dance, guitar, piano and so on. I will take them to the relevant training institutions to watch various courses, and then I will ask, "Is there anything you like? Which one do you like best? Can I choose three if I do more? " Learn to listen to children's thoughts, so that children have the time to think independently and the right to choose. When I choose, I will tell him, "You said you liked it. I will sign you up for study, but one thing needs to be guaranteed, you can't give up halfway. "
It is necessary to provide children with a variety of interest choices and give necessary guidance. Children have a wide range of interests and hobbies, and they are exposed to many things. Naturally, you can learn things that books can't, which is conducive to broadening your horizons, enhancing your self-confidence and increasing your social skills.
2. Cultivate a good personality
People will always encounter setbacks and failures in their lives. We should pay attention to cultivating children's strong and optimistic personality, correctly guide children to deal with setbacks and failures, cultivate children's self-confidence, give children appropriate encouragement and praise, and let children form an optimistic, positive and persistent personality and obey their own psychological endurance. I have always liked this careless character, because no matter what problems you encounter, you will find that careless people have strong self-regulation ability and good personality. Like me, my greatest wish is that children can grow up healthily and happily!
3. Enhance children's emotional intelligence.
Emotional intelligence, also known as emotional intelligence, mainly refers to people's qualities in emotion, emotion, will and frustration tolerance.
The level of a person's emotional intelligence also has a great influence on whether a person can succeed, and sometimes its function even exceeds the intelligence level. So, what are the main contents?
(1) Know your emotions. Because only by knowing yourself can you become the master of your life.
(2) Be able to manage your emotions properly. That is, you can adjust yourself.
(3) Self-motivation, which can make people get out of the low tide of life and start again.
4 recognize the emotions of others. This is the basis of normal communication and smooth communication with others.
⑤ interpersonal relationship management. Namely, leadership and management ability.
High emotional intelligence is really important. You can understand the importance of emotional intelligence by looking at the characteristics of people with high emotional intelligence. People with high emotional intelligence have the following characteristics: strong social skills, outgoing and cheerful personality, not easy to fall into fear or sadness, more devoted to their careers, honest and compassionate, rich in emotional life without crossing the line, and able to do things calmly and happily when they are alone or with many people.
Finally, parents should remember to be patient when educating their children. Families should face up to their children's mistakes and don't educate them by beating and cursing. This will only make them afraid of you, but they don't really realize why they made a mistake. When children make mistakes, parents should teach them carefully and guide them to face them in the right direction and correct them.
