Today is the birthday of The Danish master of children's literature Andersen. In his honor, every year on this day is named "International Children's Book Day" to evoke a love of reading and attention to children's books.
Picture books are an important step for children to move towards the temple of reading. Readers of any age can develop rich associations of different shades from the characteristics of picture books for all ages. This feature makes many picture books become the emotional connection between adults and children.
When the father or mother puts his arms around the child and gently reads poems and stories to the child, the child hears not only wonderful stories, but also warm family affection. Years from now, the child may forget the plot of the story, but will still remember the warmth of the hug. The warm feeling will become the warm memories of two generations.
Picture books have a very important function, which is to help adults communicate with children. Picture books will remind adults to think from the child's point of view, understand the child, and also give the child a key to communicate with adults.
For example, this picture book "Hurry, Hurry", is to let the story shuttle between the child's imagination and the adult's urging, through the continuous conversion of scenes, comparing imagination and reality, to help adults understand children, help children express themselves.
After reading this book, some readers told us that when urging children to brush their teeth quickly, go to bed quickly, and eat quickly, he would always imitate the little protagonist of the picture book, Piggy, and roared: "Mom/Dad, is it okay to slow down?" "That innocent little eye reminds us that nagging and urging are not friendly, and when we get along with children, we must also respect the rhythm of children's lives and physiological rhythms."
A good picture book is a child's confidant. In the face of everything in the world, the older the child, the more independent thinking and understanding he has, and will begin to structure his own logic. As a parent, how to correctly guide children's understanding of luck?
"Lucky Necklace" is a picture book with a fresh style and a story that is both simple and profound.
In order to help the other critters through the difficulties, the lucky necklace that Xiangxiang has been wearing fell into the water. However, in the face of the singing performance that will be held in the kindergarten the next day, Xiangxiang who does not have the lucky necklace feels very nervous - probably without the blessing of the lucky necklace, luck will not come, and the singing performance will not go smoothly.
How did this lack of self-confidence Xiangxiang get on stage? Will the performance be successful? Who helped her through this? At the end, the child may understand the intention of this story: there is an established logical relationship behind the luck, that is, the source of luck lies in the heart of benevolence.
