The primary school stage is a critical period of life in every aspect. If this period is ignored, remediation will be more costly. The same goes for learning calligraphy. If you don’t learn it in primary school, or learn it incorrectly, the cost of learning and correcting it later will be very high. Why is this?
1. The primary school stage is a stage where children can easily concentrate.
Primary school students are a special stage in life when they are full of curiosity and desire for the world. At this stage, primary school students are particularly easy to concentrate. Although learning calligraphy is helpful for concentration, concentration is better for learning calligraphy well. For example, for the teacher's calligraphy teaching, primary school students tend to concentrate on listening, thinking and learning. Therefore, when learning calligraphy, they often get twice the result with half the effort.
2. The primary school stage is a critical period for children to establish a sense of copying.
The calligraphy and painting circles have begun to oppose and criticize the current phenomenon of most so-called famous artists not posting. Without Lin Tie, there would be no inheritance of Chinese calligraphy. But for primary school students, linting is not only the most basic exercise in learning calligraphy, but also a process of inheriting excellent traditional culture. Teaching children to imitate from an early age and allowing them to establish a sense of copying will have a great impact on their ability to embrace all kinds of ideas and achieve breakthroughs in the future.
3. The primary school stage is the period when children have the best memory.
Learning calligraphy requires a strong memory. Everything from the strokes and structure of each character to the organization of an article or inscription needs to be memorized and understood carefully. Moreover, there are so many calligraphy classics in the world, especially children need to memorize and compare them. Therefore, it is best to start learning calligraphy from a young age. Whether it is a subtle exposure or an interest, it will have a certain impact on the child's life. Many calligraphers have started practicing calligraphy since childhood!
4. The primary school stage is a critical period for children to develop habits.
Time arrangements and habits for eating, studying, playing, etc. are all headaches for parents. The arrangement of children's living and study habits is unreasonable, the children's lives are irregular, and they are prone to mischief; and they will not make progress in their studies. Learning calligraphy is of great help in helping children develop good habits. Compared to buying a lot of toys, calligraphy is the cheapest entertainment tool.
5. The primary school stage is a potential period for children to establish their aesthetic values.
Many impressions or thoughts from childhood will affect a person's life. Children in primary school yearn for a better life especially. If the handwriting is beautiful, you will pursue other aspects of "beauty". The pursuit of beauty will make children work hard and live a positive and optimistic life.
6. The primary school stage is the starting period for children to establish their personality.
There is a hero in every child's heart. This hero is what the child wants to be when he grows up. Learning calligraphy can help children find their heroes. In the history of calligraphy, there are many such heroes. When you mount your horse, you can kill enemies, and when you dismount, you can write essays. Yan Zhenqing is such a character. Learning calligraphy often completes the cultivation of children's personality in a subtle way.
