Some children open the door to poetry through imitation, and the initial imitation is very important to them. At this time, if you are eager to make them original, it may hurt their interest.
This needs to be observed-if the child still relies on the original after three or four times, it needs to be reminded.
But in a word, changing works for children, especially young children, should be as light as possible.
I don't even recognize my own work, and no child will like this feeling.
They will wonder-am I writing so badly that I can only write good poems when I am an adult?
This is not worth the loss. I would rather the child's writing is not perfect than he is afraid.
Besides, who will define "imperfection"?
If you keep writing imperfect works, it may become a unique style.
If some poems really need to be revised badly, then ask a major question for children to think about. Take your time with the remaining questions. We are in no hurry to solve all the problems in one poem.
