When chatting with other treasure moms recently, I found that many treasure moms still have the same ideas about education as the previous generation.
"The child is too young to understand anything. He only eats, drinks and sleeps." Everything is developing. Don't you find that children are getting smarter and more precocious?
Furthermore, even if children don't know much, our parents should pay more attention.
According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory, people's needs should have five levels.
To raise children well, a healthy body is the basic guarantee.
Physiological needs-eating, drinking and sleeping
Now most of us can meet the basic needs of children at this level. What we need to do is to improve the quality.
"Eating" ensures balanced nutrition and healthy eating habits.
"Drink"-drink less drinks and drink at least 800ml of water.
(4~6 years old, eating out)
"Lazar"-Pay attention to your health.
"Sleep"-ensure sleep duration+quality
To raise children well, a healthy body is the basic guarantee.
Physical and psychological security needs
Children's understanding of the world mostly comes from our guidance, so physiological safety education and protection are necessary.
Traffic safety, food safety, sports safety, prevention of violence, etc. It's all what we want to provide for our children.
We should also pay attention to children's psychological safety needs, because they are young and need our careful care and concern.
Let the children know that we are at your fingertips when Ta needs us, and we will feel safe enough.
Don't bring our anxiety to children, it will seriously undermine their psychological security.
Social needs-love and belonging.
Children want to be loved by their families when they are young, and they want to be understood and cared for by teachers, classmates and friends when they grow up.
Don't be stingy to say love to children, which will only improve their happiness and feel our heartfelt love.
The sense of belonging will be more subtle and elusive, but it will never happen or disappear for no reason.
If we want to give our children a sense of belonging, we should make them feel that they are part of the family and realize that we are a big tree standing behind Ta and a harbor that will always contain Ta.
Respect for needs-self-esteem and respect for others
Children may not understand _ "respect" yet, but we must understand and teach them.
Even if the child is very young, we should regard Ta as an independent individual, not just a "child belonging to us".
Praise and encourage Ta around children's self-esteem, so that children can learn to respect themselves and others.
When children do something wrong, we should choose the correct and appropriate way to criticize them and respect their independent personality. Our ultimate goal is to keep children from making mistakes, not criticizing them.
Self-realization-exploration and creation
Children's desire to explore and create is very strong, but we often hinder their desire and behavior of learning and exploring because of "safety".
In fact, children will get a strong sense of accomplishment whether they use toys with new shapes, complete calligraphy exercises word by word, or finish their homework with high quality in a specified time.
This sense of accomplishment will form a positive incentive and make children more interested in active learning.
Satisfy children's curiosity and desire to explore, and explore and discover with children.
