Art folk craft
Where there are nationalities and working people, the sound of artistic pulse can be heard. Folk arts and crafts are an art form bred from the self-sufficient natural economy. In order to meet the needs of health and death, people have created all kinds of living artworks, which have accompanied the working people from the distant desert to the present. It has no conditions to draw materials from gold, silver, rhinoceros and jade, but it benefits from the inexhaustible contribution of nature. All kinds of bamboo, wood, mud, earth, hemp and silk meet the needs of all kinds of production, and the true feelings and good intentions of workers have been materialized. Mr. Zhang, a famous arts and crafts expert, said: "As far as folk arts and crafts are concerned, they are mostly coarse, vulgar, wild and rustic, but coarse but not clumsy, vulgar but not mediocre, wild but not awkward and rustic. ..... Perhaps it is the roughness, vulgarity, wildness and earthiness formed in this mode of production and structure that make folk crafts full of infinite vitality. "

Because of this, children will feel more cordial when they accept the content of folk craft activities. Those works that show individuality everywhere are similar to those in children's works. Eliminate children's fear of harsh dogma when they are beginners, and meet the needs of children to freely reveal and show themselves. However, this kind of relative "filth" and "vulgarity" is a life that the poor are familiar with and in contact with, so it has narrowed the distance with children. "Wild" is a wild, unconstrained and passionate narrative, and an important part full of vitality. The characteristics of expressing passion and refusing to be bound in the wild are exactly what children like to accept and try. They are not bound by rules and regulations. Although they have never been exposed to this, they show great enthusiasm and seem to be familiar with it. For example, in clay sculpture class, children freely vent their inner world in their hands by rubbing, pinching, rubbing and pressing. The formation of clay provides infinite possibilities for the form of mind and hands and expression space. Children are in it, looking for happiness and success between "soil" and "non-soil" In the long history, folk arts and crafts, which have experienced numerous vicissitudes and hardships, uniquely reproduce the rich and simple feelings of human beings. In the life creation of working people, it is not difficult to find that it is the simple and pure emotion unique to workers that germinates the creation of beauty. The sound of the loom in the silent night must be that the mother is rushing to weave the earth brocade or cloth for her daughter, and Haloxylon has woven the blessing of the loving mother to her daughter; The shy girl under the locust tree is handing her secretly embroidered purse to her beloved, and every stitch is connected with the girl's affection. Everything in workers' lives, from the tiger hat, tiger shoes and scarf worn by children to the mud whistle, bamboo dragon and kite played in their hands; From the door notes, window grilles and lanterns of farmhouse music to cakes, steamed buns and New Year pictures for festivals; From Xin Qiang's earthenware, Yi's lacquerware, Maonan's "flower bamboo hat", to Guizhou Buyi's batik, Xiangxi Miao's tie-dyeing, and blue calico all over the country, every exquisite folk art has incorporated the working people of all ethnic groups' deep affection for their loved ones and pinned their yearning for a better life. It poured into the workers' passionate and simple feelings, which were rarely influenced by the power of the nobility and the smell of copper. Therefore, in the creation of beauty, it is naturally sincere and unpretentious. After re-creation from generation to generation, it evokes the soul and emotion. A local toy often excites elderly people as if they were back to childhood, because it evokes many sweet memories and awakens people's childlike innocence. These not only show the infinite charm of plastic arts, but also reveal the true love and friendship between people, which can make you feel an infinite emotional power everywhere. This is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation that has lasted for thousands of years, and it is exactly what children today should understand and inherit.

It is not enough to feel the true love and friendship of our predecessors only through appreciation and explanation once or twice. Especially in today's rapid development of economy and technology, children are more faced with parents who are too busy to care about their inner world; Facing the divided high-rise buildings that weaken the enthusiasm between people; In the face of computer virtualization and emotional desertification brought by economic society, these problems constantly impact and shake the original appearance of At the Beginning of Life. Therefore, it is very necessary to maintain and create sincerity, care and friendship between children. By telling the legendary stories in folk art, they have the opportunity to listen constantly, watch thematically, choose suitable content for them to practice, and let them experience and feel constantly in practice, thus deepening their understanding of the motherland culture. For example, through the annual traditional festival "Spring Festival" in China, children can design and make "New Year cards" to give to relatives, friends and elders to express their concern, friendship and greetings. This process is not only the inheritance and development of national tradition and culture, but also an effective way for students to experience emotional communication and use their hands and brains.

Because they are deeply enslaved and oppressed, their hopes and sustenance for life are the strongest. All their efforts and wisdom are vividly reflected in their own personally shaped images. Only on the basis of understanding the background of these folk arts can we have reverence for our Chinese culture and establish a deep admiration. Therefore, it is possible to establish and form a sense of historical responsibility by cultivating love for national culture and infinite love for the motherland. This is the essence that we use folk crafts to influence children and educate them to inherit the culture of the motherland. Some traditional folk toys seem simple but have profound scientific truth. Like the famous mud toy in Xunxian county, Henan province, the mud whistle is commonly known as "mud goo goo", which uses the friction between air and mud tire wall to produce crisp and bright whistle. The appearance of mud goo goo is different: there are birds, cocks, mud dolls and other shapes. Like the "mane man" in the old capital, as early as the Peking Opera era, young children began to play. It is made of tree brown and pig brown rolls, decorated with Peking Opera costumes, and placed on a copper plate, which becomes the Peking Opera stage. The mane is the protagonist, beating the copper plate with a stick, and with the drum music, the mane in the plate immediately rotates, sometimes concentrated to the heart, and sometimes dispersed to the outside, which is very magical and lively. Here, we use the special principle that the bristles rub against the metal and vibrate to separate outward from the center after beating.

There are also some toys made of paper and cloth that can be manipulated. They are called the top toys for generations with their unique ideas and ingenious designs, and still bring joy to people. The above are just some of the things that children are most interested in during the appreciation class. However, appreciation and explanation are not the ultimate goal. The most important thing is to stimulate students' creative enthusiasm and learn the wisdom of predecessors from folk traditional crafts for today's life and study.
