The initial operation of calligraphy is mainly the small muscle groups of the hand at work. Children's hand muscles are basically developed by the age of 6, and they can perform flexible and subtle movements, which provides a material basis for children to hold pens. Learning calligraphy at this stage can further promote and improve the development of hand muscles. In other words, not only master the skills of calligraphy, but also help children's physical development better.
Children's activities in infancy are mainly unconscious. From the intermediate stage, they can complete the instructions according to the requirements of adults. From the age of 5-6, they have been able to control their behavior initially, and their psychological activities have begun to develop consciously. Adults use praise to guide at this stage, which is conducive to the development of children's independent consciousness, that is, the cultivation of interest.
In the process of learning, children should first write according to the simple words they know, from easy to difficult. Beginners should first learn to "draw red" and learn basic knowledge. They should choose Liu Style and Yan Style, and their pen collection is obviously balanced. Whether a child can learn block letters depends on whether he can write like a copied font after leaving the copybook. When they learn regular script to a certain extent, they can start to learn running script, official script and cursive script.
When guiding children to learn calligraphy, we should pay attention to their learning posture, habits and attitudes, and the practice time should not be too long. We should take our children to visit calligraphy exhibitions and places of interest with inscriptions to encourage them to make progress and enhance their self-confidence.
