Modern children, with the Internet and Google, are lucky, but they may also be unfortunate. Fortunately, there are unlimited resources on the Internet, so you can learn by yourself and use them in real time! But the pros and cons are a double-edged sword. Some children are trapped in the online world and cannot extricate themselves. Internet addiction is another concern. The following are three self-study English websites I have carefully selected, most of which are completely free and have a good reputation abroad; I hope parents can use it under the following principles:

First, it is not recommended for children under three to use computers. Over three years old, you can practice moderately.

Second, daily use is limited, and the suggested time is as follows: 30 minutes a day for three to five years old; It takes 50 to 60 minutes from the age of six to the middle and lower grades of primary school, but it takes a break every half hour. Senior grade in elementary school? When I was in junior high school, I didn't spend more than two hours a day, and I got up every 30 minutes to have a rest.

Third, parents should study with them. It is not recommended to take the computer as a nanny and do things by themselves. You know, the online world is hard to control, pornographic advertisements (such as Youtube) may pop up from time to time, or children can't help secretly browsing other inappropriate web pages.

Before the child's self-control is fully developed, if parents can't always accompany him, they should also let the child use it in the public space where parents can monitor the screen at any time.

Internet is a sharp weapon for learning. Only by knowing how to use it well can we get twice the result with half the effort. Confucius said, "Five colors make people blind, five tones make people deaf, five flavors make people cool, and galloping and hunting makes people crazy!" Pay attention to the use of network resources to help children make more use of good English teaching websites. While learning Chinese, we should also accompany our children to study together, grow up together, have fun together, kill two birds with one stone and increase the parent-child relationship. This is the best result!

Recommended reason

Children's programs on American public television give many American children the opportunity to see good educational movies, such as Sesame Street, super why, Daniel Tiger's neighbor, Arthur and so on.

Besides TV programs, American public television has also designed an interactive website for children, where you can watch wonderful educational cartoons, animations and play games.

Novices are especially recommended to play super why on this website. Click on the turntable on the homepage, and you can go in and see the four protagonists of super why, and then go to Princess P's game area to learn pronunciation and spelling with Princess P!

When your English ability is better in primary school, you can go and see Fetch! With RuffRuffman, this is a science film that my son loved to watch when he was in America. There is an animated dog who challenges many scientific experiments with real children!
