Baby: I don't like Ultraman because I like monsters, and he always fights monsters!
If your baby told you that, would you find it incredible? Will the child's thoughts be corrected immediately? And tell the child: "Ultraman is the embodiment of justice, we should like Ultraman, and the monster destroys the peace, it is bad, we should hate it, we should hit him." ”
In the adult world, such thinking is taken for granted, but in the thinking of children, it is not. If we always impose adult thinking on the child, then the child will grow up in the future, and may only become a copy of us, without making a breakthrough and achieving higher achievements.
Boys should like cars and Ultraman, girls should like dolls? In your daily life, do you ask your children to do the same?
Do you tell your child that demons, unicorns, monsters, etc., these are all non-existent? When you correct these behaviors of your child again and again, you may have affected your child's imagination again and again.
So what can we do to better protect our children's imaginations? Let's take a look at what Teacher Ming, who has been a kindergarten teacher for more than 10 years, does!
Teacher Ming's son said that he didn't like Ultraman, but when he liked monsters. Teacher Ming asked his son why he liked monsters? When the son replied, because he liked unicorns, and Ultraman always fought monsters, he didn't like it.
Obviously, the teacher did not tell the child like ordinary people that Ultraman is righteous and good, and the monster is bad. Nor did he correct the child, telling the child that monsters do not exist, but respecting the child's choices and preferences. Allow children to imagine in the air, and often accompany children to read together, tell children a variety of mythological story picture books, and share various interesting and strange stories with children. Therefore, my son very much likes to listen to Teacher Mingming's stories, and his imagination ability is getting richer and richer.
Teacher Ming not only tells stories to his children, but also tells stories to children for more than 10 years of education, and has trained the ability of Teacher Ming to tell stories, which is very infectious, not only children like it, parents and friends also like it!
Later, after a reminder from a parent, he told Mingming that teachers could tell stories and post them online, so that other children could also listen to them, and I believe that there would be many children who liked it. Such suggestions, a word to wake up the dreamer, let Teacher Ming go farther and farther on the road of storytelling.
Taking storytelling as another career of his own, he slowly took this career as his main career, not only gave up the work of a kindergarten teacher he had been engaged in for more than 10 years, but also started a storytelling career on the video platform, sharing excellent story picture books with parents and friends while constantly telling stories.
This not only makes his work meaningful, but also helps more parents and friends, but also gains more small fans.
Teacher Ming told us that the child's imagination and potential are unlimited, and we can only allow the child to think wildly and allow the child to imagine in the air, so as to better develop the child's imagination.
Teacher Ming knows that a good children's book is very helpful for the health and growth of children. While constantly sharing stories, he has also brought benefits to himself and realized his ideals. What do you think of Teacher Mingming's abandonment of his iron rice bowl and his work as a storyteller and a children's book?
