What is the biggest gap between Chinese and American children's habits?
In foreign countries, sports are the most important part of children's daily life. In the United States, for example, many American children not only love outdoor sports, but also are mostly physically strong, while China children are quite different. Someone once half-jokingly compared the differences between Chinese and American children:

China versus the United States

1~4 years old: basically the same;

5~8 years old: China children start training classes; American children go to play baseball with their fathers;

9~ 12 years old: China children continue to attend training courses; American children play ball, run and even exercise after school;

13~ 18 years old: China children are still in training classes; The muscles of American children are beginning to take shape.

Most parents in China still think that academic performance and talent cultivation are more important, while sports still stay in the prejudice of "simple mind and developed limbs" in the minds of most parents.

In fact, letting children develop good exercise habits from an early age can not only give them a healthy body, but also cultivate their complete personality. Exercise plays an important role in children's personality development;

Let children better control their emotions;

Don't complain about the status quo, don't be afraid of failure, and do your best until you succeed;

Clear goal, strong concentration and heavy sense of responsibility;

Another study shows that the average height of children who exercise regularly is 4~8cm higher than that of children who exercise less! Moreover, today's children like to play mobile phones and tablet games at home. Keeping their heads down for a long time will have a great impact on the normal development of children's spine. Therefore, children must sit quietly for a while and be sure to guide them to get up and move.

Today, in this happy festival, let's exercise with the children's good friends in Sesame Street-Ai Mo and Cookie Monster, as well as the parent-child expert Mommy Huang Meizhen, who combines Chinese and Western!

▼ Be sure to warm up before exercise.

The body stays upright, the upper body leans forward slightly, and the hands are straight up and down and waved back and forth. This is the warm-up of the upper body.

Then stand slowly while swinging your arms, then walk back and forth, or run and jump in small steps, repeating for 4-6 times, with a short rest in the middle.

▼ Next, I began to do letter exercises.

Parents can prepare a box of cards and randomly select a letter in it to imitate.

Try to make a "P" with your body!

Stand on tiptoe, stretch your arms to the left, try to imitate the shape of P, and take pictures to see who has a more similar posture.

▼ Attach 26 letter exercises and exercise with your children!

You can't sit or lie down immediately after exercise. You should pat your hands and feet lightly to relax, return to warm-up action and let your body slow down gradually.

? Positive motivation helps children form good habits.

If the child does a great job, parents can give him some small rewards at an appropriate time. In addition to the affirmation of eyes and language, they can also give him a small reward, which is conducive to strengthening his positive behavior and developing good habits!
