At the end of the May Day holiday, many families have traveled collectively, as for the reason for traveling, of course, most of them want to take their children out to see the "world"~
It's just that the views of different parents vary greatly from one parent to another.
I really can't agree with the idea of some parents.
For example, some people think that when you take your children out to play, the farther you go, the more places you go, and the higher you spend, the better you see the "world".
The term "seeing the world" first came from "Dream of Red Mansions".
In ancient times, the world referred to a round stone in front of the county yamen. Therefore, to see the world is to see only officials, and for the people, to understand officialdom is to see the world.
In modern times, the so-called "seeing the world" is actually to observe the real situation of society from all levels, multiple dimensions, and multiple perspectives, and integrate it into one's own world view and outlook on life.
In fact, for children, the real "world" is not to go out and watch the flowers and play around, nor is it to enroll in a research camp for children and take children on a trip can be cultivated, but contained in the rich life experience, contained in the parents' bit by bit guidance education, and requires long-term accumulation.
I believe that if parents can develop these three habits in their children's childhood, then they have seen the "world" in the real sense, and the probability of success in the future will be greater.
01. Good reading habits
The importance of reading is undeniable.
Many of the ancient sayings emphasize the importance of reading, such as "read 10,000 books, travel a thousand miles", "there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book".
Modern educators also practice massive reading.
It can be said that the wisdom of the author is condensed in every book. Reading is not only to see the world on the shoulders of giants, but also the best and most convenient way to understand the world and think in multiple dimensions.
If travel has an economic threshold, then reading is a window to the world for everyone, rich or poor.
However, there are not many children who actually read books well and insist on reading every day.
Reading requires interest, thinking, absorption and digestion.
Different reading styles and different comprehension styles have very different effects.
Therefore, if children can be cultivated to establish a good interest in reading and have good reading habits, they can truly see the "world".
02, the habit of traveling with the brain
A friend once said to me with a lot of guilt: My children have gone to college, but I have never taken him to travel abroad, because I have no money and no leisure, and I feel so sorry for my children!
So, are children who have been abroad really wide-horizonted?
If you just take your children abroad for tourism and don't do any homework in advance, what your children see may be different cities and different races, and they will be more curious than more knowledgeable and produce more independent thinking.
Those trips that do not touch the spiritual world of the child will not allow the child to broaden the "world".
I once read an author who took a tour abroad about one of the things he did when he took six children to France.
One day, he took six children in the group and planned to tell the children the story of Napoleon.
Before speaking, he asked: "Who knows Napoleon?" ”
Some children say: Napoleon was a hero.
Some say: Napoleon was a great general.
Some say: A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, as Napoleon said.
But two children said out loud: I don't know, I don't want to hear his story.
So, how much point is it for these two children to travel abroad?
Traveling with your brain is the real "world". It doesn't have to be to take your children abroad to see the world.
For wealthy families, taking a trip to a poor mountain village to expose the child to the world and poverty that he has never known about may bring more shocking feelings to the child than the beautiful scenery.
03. The habit of quickly adapting to the environment
The times are developing so rapidly, AI technology is menacing, and there are more and more children who are depressed and anxious.
Unable to endure hardship, unable to withstand setbacks, and weak survival ability have become synonymous with modern children.
Being able to quickly adapt to a new environment and have the courage to accept new things is a child's ability to survive.
Although some families are unable to provide their children with high-cost trips, parents can teach their children the habit of not giving up in the face of adversity through their own strong resilience.
Although parents are too busy with work to accompany their children to travel long distances, a short-distance hike may be more conducive to children's real growth in terms of improving children's ability to resist frustration and survive.
When it comes to seeing the world, there is no need to think too much about family income, and there is no need to blame yourself for your limited ability.
Every time the whole family organizes a caring and loving activity, so that children have the opportunity to learn and participate and think subtly, it is to see the "world" with high quality.
What exactly is the "world"?
"The face of the world" is the face of the world, the appearance of the world. It includes not only the natural appearance of different countries, different regions, different cities and villages, but also the history, culture, science and so on of each place. Seeing the world is to let children see the wonder and difference of the world, know and understand different people, different environments, different cultures, and different religions, so as to be more open-minded and tolerant.
As Wong Kar-wai said in the movie "The Grandmaster": This life is the process of seeing oneself, seeing heaven and earth, and seeing all beings.
Seeing myself, I feel the self and the true self, so I am open-minded.
Seeing heaven and earth, I realized the great and the small, so I was humble;
Seeing sentient beings, understanding the appearance of sentient beings, so forgiving.
A person's thinking and cognitive patterns formed since childhood determine his strategies for coping with study, work, and handling things, and ultimately affect his success and happiness.
You may not be able to give your children everything they want, but the books you read, the roads you walk, and the people you meet with them will live forever in their memories and become life-enriching nutrients.
