Early education is the basic stage of modern education, and many parents attach great importance to it and arrange rich courses for their children. But at this stage, children are still young, and too many courses are not consumed, and it is difficult to play their role. Here are some of the early education misunderstandings that are easy to be ignored, and you should pay more attention to your parents.
First, edutainment is more appropriate than cramming teaching.
Simulated scenarios, role-playing... Puzzle games enable children to learn life skills in the simulated game mechanism, which is easy to stimulate children's curiosity, germinate a desire to explore, and have the idea of trying everything around them. Interest is the first step in learning, children have interest as a dredging, cognition and mastery of new knowledge will be more smooth.

Learning is a long-term and slow feedback activity, but edutainment activities often allow children to get rapid feedback, the brain will remember the joy and new information brought by practical activities to the human body stimulation, which helps children to establish a rich neurofeedback mechanism early on, help them adapt to life and learning situations in different environments faster.
Therefore, edutainment seems to be a very simple approach, but the positive feedback and impact it can bring is long-term and long-lasting. Parents should pay attention to this to cultivate their children's cognitive ability in ordinary times.
Second, the positive feedback of a good family atmosphere.
Family education precedes school education and plays an important role in the process of children's growth and learning. A warm family environment can give children a sense of security and trust, so that they can exert their creativity.
And, in the long run, children who grow up in a good family atmosphere know how to say "no", and they have established clearer self-boundaries as children. The support and dependence given to them by their families also gives them the courage to say "no". Children have to learn a lot of skills as they grow up, but there are some things that families don't have to spend too much time pursuing if they can give them.
A good family atmosphere also allows children to immerse themselves in it and remain relaxed, so that children can take the family as a "safe haven" from the heart, so that parents and children can understand each other, accept each other, and each other can find fun from their own roles, which is the proper meaning of a good family environment atmosphere.
Third, puzzle games help develop the brain.
Puzzle games promote the development of children's early intelligence, and will also help children form the ability to distinguish colors and the ability to imagine three-dimensional space. For example, puzzles, building blocks, paintings, etc., although it seems simple, it is very conducive to children to establish a sound thinking system. On the one hand, this is their window to open the world, and on the other hand, it is also the initial stage of exposing them to the adult mind. Therefore, puzzle games use its own role, parents can think about the special features of the game before playing with their children, communicate with children in the process of playing with children, and tell children about their intentions in picking this game, so that children understand the meaning of the game is not only a game, it is also an effective way to make parents closer.
Many children grow up asking why the stars blink and why the sun is round. The introduction of these questions proves that the child begins to think about the world that is closely related to him, and puzzle games are not complicated ways to convey these ideas. While there may not be a standard answer, puzzle behavior focuses on inspiration and exploration.
Fourth, children's early brain development is not suitable for cumbersome courses.
Now some early education institutions on the market have opened fewer courses for their children, but there are still parents who are worried about their children's heavy homework after entering primary school. In fact, judging from the brain development of preschool children, in fact, excessively cumbersome courses are harmful to them. Even if some intellectual development can be achieved in the early stages, such a move is undoubtedly an early overdraft of the ability of the human brain to use. In other words, the human brain's ability to develop is limited. If you listen to the rumor that "everyone's brain can develop into Einstein", and fill the child's brain with knowledge of various disciplines, regardless of the child's brain development, it is also stifling the child's self and creativity.
At an age full of innocence and childlike fun, children should be allowed to go out of the enclosed room to feel the beautiful scenery and water, let them appreciate the unparalleled beauty of nature, more than the tedious curriculum, they need to use this way, contact with nature, relax. Complicated courses are difficult to accept even for adults, let alone children whose bodies and brains are still developing.
Parents should also put themselves in the shoes of their children while worrying about their children, if schools or early education institutions have opened courses suitable for their age, parents should have some trust in the professionalism of the school. This is the first step in learning for children and teachers to feel the joy of exploring the world rather than the annoyance of learning.
Learning has the essence of learning, and there is also play, the two should not be confused, but we must also pay attention to the boundaries of the two. Edutainment is the key to whether children can learn and feel happiness from their daily lives, and it is also the first step for them to go from the sight of their parents to the world. In any case, parents should maintain the most basic confidence in their children's intelligence and mastery, but also have an understanding of the teaching situation of schools or educational institutions, let children go to school happily, learn with children, and children have the frequency of basic communication on the situation in this world, so that children can also feel the joy of spreading new information and new knowledge to parents.
