As for why I recommend reading books and newspapers, because it is really the cheapest and most convenient interest. I have a friend's uncle who is the principal of an extracurricular interest class. I once heard him calculate such an account.
I want my children to learn musical instruments, including 80 lessons for piano, 75 lessons for guzheng and 60 lessons for clarinet ... If a lesson lasts for two hours and a holiday lasts for 20 lessons, it will probably be 1.600 yuan. However, it is very certain that you can learn a little in 20 classes in a holiday, so it will take at least 3 semesters, about 5,000 yuan, and there are also round-trip fares and meals, about 7,000 to 8,000 yuan.
As for drawing, my brother is studying fine arts. It's like burning money since childhood. A paintbrush, 50 yuan, needs about 20. In addition, you have to report to class. About 3000 for 20 basic classes. Occasionally go out with extracurricular classes to pick scenery, and you can get 3 thousand to 5 thousand each time.
These costs are too high, how to make children like reading books and newspapers? I have a friend. When he was a child, his family was poor. His family lived in a forest area. He had few playmates, so his childhood was boring. Later, he found that he could read his Chinese dictionary.
Later, when he read the Chinese dictionary for the third time, his parents found him. As soon as his parents discussed it, they bought him some books, and no matter how busy he was at work, he would accompany him to read them. Gradually, he felt that reading was his hobby. After junior high school, he enriched himself with two extracurricular books every week.
Another advantage of reading is to increase memory. Now, after going to college, he will come to us with knowledge we don't remember. When he took the civil service exam, he won the first place in the application. He once said, "I am really grateful to my parents. Although my parents didn't send me to any interest classes, my parents found my hobby in time, and then they followed my hobby and tried their best to provide me with conditions. " I have formed a good habit of reading. "
If your child doesn't show great love for reading, it needs the correct guidance of parents, because the child is still young. Parents are children's teachers. As long as you often read in front of him, he will subtly like reading. Although the conditions at home are not particularly good, I believe that all parents love their children with the same love and want to make a profound plan for their children.
