Parents always ask "How to cultivate children's concentration?" In fact, the first step in cultivating children's concentration should be to protect the child's concentration.
Because children have a certain ability to concentrate from birth, parents need to protect their children's concentration.
However, many parents do not seem to realize this, so they are unconsciously doing things that disrupt their children's concentration in their daily lives, especially the following points, 90% of parents may be doing it now.
1. Interrupt or disturb the child frequently
Some parents always disturb or interrupt their children regardless of the occasion, such as when the children are focused on playing, some parents always interrupt the children and will ask the children "Baby, are you hungry?" "Baby, thirsty or not?" If parents do this regularly, it will seriously damage the child's concentration.
If parents find that their children's concentration is getting worse and worse, and they are always unable to concentrate on one thing, it is likely to be related to this kind of action of parents.
2. Like to guide children
Some parents love to guide their children, such as when children focus on learning, parents always like to guide on the side, once they find that their children have a little mistake, they will immediately tell their children where they are doing something wrong and what should be done.
There are many such cases, in fact, this practice will also destroy the child's concentration, the correct approach should be to wait until the child has done all the things, parents to guide, so as not to destroy the child's concentration.
3. Give your child too many toys
Nowadays, children like to play with toys, and parents will prepare a lot of toys for children in order to spoil their children, but they do not know that this situation may also affect the development of children's concentration.
Because there are too many toys at home, children may play with this for a while, and then play with another for a while, in short, it is difficult to focus on a toy in the end, which is not conducive to the cultivation of good concentration in the long run.
4. The life and learning environment created for children is too complicated
Some parents are keen to decorate their children's rooms, and will put a variety of toys, decorations, or other gadgets full of them, in fact, such a living and learning environment is not conducive to protecting concentration.
Because in such an environment, children are always easily distracted by the things around them, and in the long run, they naturally cannot concentrate on one thing.
So, in the face of these situations, what should parents do?
1. Let your child focus on one thing
In order to protect and cultivate their children's concentration, parents can let their children undergo "focus on one thing" training.
For example, parents can set a task for their children and set a time for completion, during which time the child can only focus on this one thing.
Here we should remind that parents should appropriately formulate tasks, focusing on simple things, otherwise, if it is too difficult for children to complete things, it may hit the enthusiasm and self-confidence of children.
2. Teach children to allocate time reasonably
Parents should teach their children to allocate time reasonably, for example, parents can arrange some things for their children, but they need their children to plan and arrange reasonably, in this way, they can cultivate their children's concept of time and cultivate their children's concentration.
3. Don't disturb or interrupt
Whether the child is learning or playing with toys, in short, when the child focuses on a certain thing, parents should not disturb and interrupt the child, so as to protect the child's concentration well.
4. Play games with your child
There are many puzzle games that can cultivate children's concentration, so parents may wish to have more games related to their children, which can not only cultivate children's concentration, but also help promote the cultivation of a good parent-child relationship.
5. Put away too many toys
If the child's toys are indeed more, parents may wish to first put away some of the toys that the children do not play often, leaving only a small number of toys for the child, which can avoid the child's distraction.
6. Create a suitable environment for children
Parents should try their best to create a quiet and clean learning environment for their children, so that children can focus on learning, and over time, they can naturally develop good concentration.
