Why do these great men we know so much about the management of time?
In fact, scientific research shows that people who are more able to grasp time have more control over their lives.
Excellence does not come entirely from the IQ gap, but also from time management.
The same is true for children.

Manage time
It's about managing your own life
Time management is not just about managing time, but about making life more meaningful and efficient.
◆ Learn time management, complete tasks more efficiently
Focus is the only magic weapon to complete tasks efficiently.
Time management, on the other hand, allows people to focus on accomplishing one thing over a period of time.
But concentration is not innate.
Scientific studies have shown that concentration develops as children age and the prefrontal lobes of the brain mature.
If you cultivate your child's time management ability from an early age, it is undoubtedly conducive to the development of concentration.
◆ Time management to make the goal clearer
Time management can help us prioritize things and set clearer goals.
When people have goals, there are clearer directions, which is especially important for children.
Bill Damon, a research expert and principal investigator for teenagers at Stanford University, has said:
The biggest problem with growing up today is not stress, but meaninglessness. This requires children to have goals and chase their own meaning.
It can be seen that time management can allow children to get rid of meaningless entertainment and have the courage to pursue the results they want.
That's why the bacteria say that the importance of time management is self-evident.
Therefore, parents should cultivate their children's time management skills in a timely manner.
As for how to cultivate, the bacteria went on to say:

Time management for children
It's not just about time management
The human sense of time is determined by the hippocampus in the brain.
The more things the hippocampus needs to remember at the time of an event, the slower time passes when recalling it after the fact.
For children, everything in life is fresh, so the hippocampus needs to remember more things.
Therefore, in the child's concept, time passes very slowly.
In the eyes of children, time is endless, can be squandered at will, and does not need to be managed.
Therefore, if you want to cultivate children's time management skills, the process is not achieved overnight, and children of different ages have different priorities:
Preschool (before the age of 3): Have a complete perception of time and develop good habits
Kindergarten to lower primary school (3-10 years old): Distinguish the priorities and complete the plan on schedule
Upper primary school grades and above (after the age of 10): Use time autonomously and efficiently
How to do it, let's continue to look down together.
◆ Preschoolers, the important thing is to perceive time
The most important thing for preschoolers is to help them establish the concept of "time".
Here, the fungus introduces you to three small games to help the baby know "time".
◆ Children from kindergarten to the lower grades of primary school learn to distinguish between priorities and complete plans
For children who have just entered kindergarten and entered school, the originally relaxed pace of life has changed because they enter the school.
At this time, parents can seize the opportunity to lead their children to make a life schedule together to help their children learn to distinguish priorities and complete their own plans.
For the production of the life schedule, you can refer to the steps given below:
Have your child make a list of what to do on their own.
Let the child sort these things, and the child decides what to do first and what to do later.
Mark the time required for each event, help the child establish a concept of time, and also remind him to do things and pay attention to time.
Post the schedule in a prominent place in your home so that your child can always notice
It is important to note that:
For children who are still in kindergarten, the schedule can adopt the style of "more pictures and fewer words".
It not only makes it easy for children to understand the content of daily life, but also can mobilize children's interest.
If their child has already started elementary school, parents can use the "four quadrants of time management" to help their children sort out their daily schedules.
◆ Children in the middle and upper grades of primary schools learn to use time autonomously and efficiently
After preliminary guidance and training, when the child reaches the middle and upper grades of primary school, he can skillfully use the schedule to arrange his own time.
At this time, children can be trained to learn to use time autonomously and efficiently.
Distinguish between "must" and "want"
For children, the things to be done every day can be divided into "must do" and "what they want to do".
Things that must be done, such as going to school, writing homework, etc.;
Do what you want to do, such as playing games, watching videos, drawing, etc.
Ask your child to list these two types of events on their own, and then let the child budget for his own time and see what else he wants to do after he has done what he has to do.
Learn to review your own time
Depending on the increase in schoolwork, children may find that the "must-do" things gradually take up most of the time.
At this time, parents can take their children to do a review of time planning together to see what time can be saved and make their daily time more.
For example: listen to the audio of ancient poems on the way to or from school, thereby reducing the time taken up by memorizing texts;
Divide each subject according to difficulty, and after doing a more difficult homework, do a relatively simple one, and give the brain a time to relax.
In this process, children can gradually learn to arrange time efficiently and reasonably.
In addition, when cultivating children's time management skills, we must remember to consult with children more and give children full autonomy.
When children have a sense of participation and control, they will be more active in completing the plans they have made.
Of course, do not urge the child, too much urging will trigger the "over-limit effect", so that the child is more rubbing.
In fact, in the eyes of the bacteria:
Time management is not a skill, but a habit.
Cultivating children's habits of time management is not only to make children excellent, but also to make children have more control over their lives.
Time management, not to manage time, but for a better life.
