When taking children to play at the girlfriend's house, I often see the girlfriend's 2-year-old daughter Xinxin lying on a small table, very focused on scribbling and drawing there, and the small hands are very flexible, while the grandfather sits on the sofa next to him, reading a book very leisurely.
Every time I saw this scene, I would stand there and observe for a while to see what the little girl was painting there, and the little girl was not affected by me at all, reveled in it, and would continue to paint in a different color that she liked.
I often lament that my girlfriend's father-in-law will bring a baby. Girlfriend's father-in-law is a retired old teacher, hobby is painting, reading, it is influenced by grandpa, girlfriend's daughter Xinxin also likes to scribble and paint.
Girlfriend said that when the daughter was more than 2 years old, the father-in-law bought some children's coloring books for the granddaughter, and let the granddaughter play for about 30 minutes every day.
However, after a period of time, the girlfriend found that her daughter had changed her bad habit of being active, and the concentration time was getting longer and longer, from the original ability to settle down to paint for a few minutes, to the next ten minutes, twenty minutes, and then to the later half an hour.
When my girlfriend's daughter was more than one year old, I remember that my girlfriend also asked me for help, wondering if her daughter had "ADHD", and she felt that her daughter was not smart enough.
Or grandpa has a way, even by letting his granddaughter play coloring, the concentration is getting better and better, and the thinking is getting more and more agile, even after entering the kindergarten, the teacher praises Xinxin's quick thinking, concentration is very good.
Girlfriend's mother-in-law because of another son's family with children, so the girlfriend's father-in-law took the initiative to help take the granddaughter after retirement, at first the girlfriend was not at ease, worried that the father-in-law was not good with the child, did not expect that the father-in-law was not only careful, but also knew how to educate the child, which made the girlfriend very relieved.
Seeing that this retired old teacher has a different way of bringing a baby, and has cultivated the little granddaughter's super concentration, the small hand is also very flexible, and the awareness of color is very high.
I specifically asked him for advice, and the old teacher told me something about the benefits of playing coloring books for young children. I summarized his words in 3 points, which I will share with you here.
The first point is to open the child's unlimited imagination through rich colors and lines, so that the child can feel the charm of color.
In the cognition of many people, it is felt that children over two years old playing with coloring and painting will make a mess at home, and even draw on the sofa and walls, so many parents will not let young children play these at all.
In fact, more than 2 years old is the age when children are more sensitive to color, and colorful colors can exert their unlimited imagination, stimulate children's brain cells, and let imagination take wings.
At this time, if we can give the child some coloring pens and coloring books, let the child use his own small hands to color, the child's imagination has a carrier.
Therefore, the play of coloring books by young children is not only the graffiti we see on the surface, but the release of children's nature, and children scribbling on coloring books will naturally not scribble in other places.
Second, you can exercise your child's hand muscles and flexibility, train the high coordination of your hand, eye, and brain, and develop your child's left and right brains and various potentials.
In the process of coloring the book, the child will see the color pattern of each page, and the child will go through the rapid processing of the brain to color the blank pattern according to his own ideas and preferences.
In this process, the child's hand-brain-eye needs a high degree of coordination, the small hand in the process of painting, the hand muscles are exercised, and the hand is also known as the second brain of the person, there is a close connection between the fingers and the brain, so there is a "spiritual hand".
When children are coloring, they generally like to hold the paintbrush in their entire hands to color, and parents do not need to correct it, because in this way, the small hands of young children can use force and can paint flexibly.
In the process of playing coloring, the child's thinking runs rapidly, the intellect is developed, and other potentials are also developed.
The third point can cultivate children's strong concentration and improve children's observation, memory ability and color perception ability.
Children in the process of coloring, because of the color and pattern attracted, attention will be highly concentrated, they will be intoxicated in the color and line, not easy to be disturbed by the outside world, so long, the child's concentration time will be longer and longer, concentration will be better and better.
My girlfriend's daughter is the same age as my family's second treasure, and under the influence of my girlfriend's daughter, my second treasure also pestered me to buy her these coloring books.
At first, I still thought that the child was too young to paint, or listened to the girlfriend's father-in-law, the old teacher's words, I bought this set of "Baby Concentration Potential Development Coloring Book" for the child, this set of coloring books is also the girlfriend's daughter's favorite set to play.
Girlfriend father-in-law said that the choice of coloring books for young children is very exquisite, and the choice must meet the cognitive level of young children in order to attract children and make children tireless.

Now erbao is in the kindergarten class, not only good concentration, but also quick thinking, very talented in painting, and now after returning home from kindergarten, I still like to play coloring, I can't remember how many sets I bought for her.
I found that the reason why this set of coloring books is very attractive to children is because the pictures in this set of coloring books are very in line with children's cognitive psychology and cognitive level.

And the design of the book is also from easy to difficult, the lines of the pattern from simple to complex, high-definition color pictures, bright colors, can attract children's attention for the first time.
The patterns that need to be colored are all large blocks, with thick and thin lines interlaced, eye-protecting paper, and the size of the folio is just right for the baby's small hands to read.
This set of books is more suitable for the 2-6-year-old baby color pattern cognitive enlightenment, the small animals in the book, vehicles, etc. are very image, so that the baby in the process of playing, recognize different things, feel the color change and color richness.
At the same time, in the process of hand-brain-eye and coloring, the child can open the baby's artistic cells and left and right brains, so that the baby's hand muscles can get enough exercise in the coloring, so that the small hands are more flexible and coordinated.
Here, it needs to be reminded that when young babies play coloring books, parents should not try to interrupt and interfere with their children, not to let the children color according to the colors in the sample, but to let the children play freely.
Because the child in the process of coloring, the child's small head melon will continue to run, under the instructions of the brain, the child will be according to their own wishes and like to color.
In this process, the most important thing is to let children know different colors, lines and things, and let children recognize the relationship between colors, paper and pencil, and painting marks through coloring, so as to stimulate children's enthusiasm and motivation for creation.
