Happy time is always short, and the summer vacation is half over in an instant. How can parents help their children get rid of summer syndrome, finish their homework smoothly before the end of the holiday, adjust their work and rest, and face the challenges of the new semester?
First of all, what is student summer syndrome?
Pupils' summer syndrome means that children are prone to a series of physical and mental problems during the summer vacation because of long rest and lack of regular life. For example:
1. Sleep problems: Because children don't have a fixed schedule after holidays, they are prone to insomnia, staying up late and getting up late, which leads to a decline in sleep quality.
2. Insufficient exercise: After the holidays, children often like to play video games or watch TV at home, lacking outdoor activities and exercise, which may easily lead to obesity and physical decline.
3. Vision problems: staring at electronic screens or books for a long time, lack of outdoor activities, easily lead to eye fatigue, deepening myopia and other problems.
4. Malnutrition: Children may form bad eating habits during holidays, such as eating snacks and drinking carbonated drinks, which will lead to unbalanced nutrition and easily lead to digestive problems and growth and development problems.
5. Learning retrogression: there is no fixed learning time every day, which leads to the knowledge being forgotten after a long time without use. It takes time to review what you have learned before school starts, and you start slowly. And irregular life will lead to students can not adapt to high-intensity study immediately, and need a transition period.
6. Emotional problems: Due to the lack of regular life and study pressure after holidays, children are uncomfortable after school and are prone to emotional fluctuations, anxiety and depression.
7. Social problems: After the holidays, children's communication with classmates and friends may be reduced, leading to problems such as decreased social skills and increased loneliness.
So how should parents help their children get rid of summer syndrome? (1) Work and rest reasonably and establish a regular life.
If your child doesn't have a summer vacation plan, please make it with your child quickly; If there is a timetable at the beginning of the summer vacation, but the children don't strictly implement it, parents need to re-examine the timetable and arrange the falling progress reasonably for the rest of the summer vacation. The schedule should be accurate to every hour, and the tasks that need to be completed in each time period should be clearly marked, such as reciting ancient poems at 10: 00 in the morning, completing Chinese homework, 1 1 learning English and so on. Only in this way can the goal be achieved.
Of course, summer vacation also needs a combination of work and rest. In the afternoon, parents can arrange some outdoor activities and go to some museums or exhibitions to increase their knowledge. If you successfully complete the task in the morning, you can have free reading or game time in the evening, and the rewards are clear, so that children can have more motivation to learn.
(2) Keep proper outdoor exercise to enhance children's physique.
Encourage children to go out and connect with the world, so that children will not be locked up at home doing nothing and having no fighting spirit. From the beginning of leaving home, parents can play chess and play puzzle games with their children; Encourage children to invite friends to the community to play, jump rope, play ball, hide and seek, etc. On weekends, children can eat with their families, camp outdoors, fly kites and play football. These activities can attract children out of their small rooms to get in touch with nature, but only if they are accompanied by family and friends, so parents should not always stay at home and play with their mobile phones. They should set an example and explore nature with their children!
(3) Cultivate hobbies and help children establish long-term interests.
Encourage children to try new hobbies, such as painting, learning a new musical instrument and getting in touch with a new sport. Give them full support and encouragement to help them discover their potential and interests. When children establish long-term hobbies and are bored or want to relax, electronic products will not be the only choice.
Secondly, in the process of cultivating hobbies, parents need to abandon utilitarianism. There are many ways to encourage, such as "learning musical instruments can make many new friends, and maybe you can start a small band and give a performance after the summer vacation", but the reason for learning should not be "learning a musical instrument can get extra points in the exam; After swimming well, you can choose this project in the senior high school entrance examination, and you don't have to roll around. " Although this is reasonable, it is not the starting point that children like, and it will bring pressure to children and they cannot really relax.
(4) Establish social circles to help children make new friends.
Some children are introverted and will not easily get out of their comfort zone, so they are always alone. At this time, parents should stand up and help their children make new friends. For example, organize outdoor activities such as picnics and visiting parks among parents, and invite friends who are familiar with children to participate, so as to create opportunities for children to enhance their emotions. Or take children to participate in community activities or group play, or children of parents' own friends. These gatherings can expand children's social circle. The so-called threesome must have my teacher. Children learn the advantages of friends, understand the gap between themselves and others, and become more studious and enterprising.
(5) Interesting learning methods to enhance learning interest.
Children resist doing homework, watching the holiday time getting less and less, and the efficiency of doing homework is getting lower and lower. This is a sign that children are not interested in learning! No child likes boring and repetitive exercises. It is suggested to study in an interesting way in leisure time to make learning less terrible!
For example, Chinese writing can stimulate children's interest in learning through documentaries. Documentary is an excellent teaching aid to cultivate the sense of writing and language and expand knowledge. The narration and copy in the documentary are all accumulated writing materials, and the documentary covers a wide range of topics, such as science and technology, adventure, ecology, history and so on. By watching documentaries, children can get in touch with the opinions and discussions of experts from leading cities at home and abroad, and gain opportunities to learn about different fields of knowledge, thus enhancing their desire for exploration and interest in learning.

For example, learning English and watching English animated movies are all good ways of leisure and entertainment! Nowadays, many parents have the awareness of cultivating English language sense. Since the baby was born, they only watched English cartoons. Children in primary school can even try to exercise their listening sense by watching English subtitles, or be bilingual in Chinese and English, so that children can accumulate vocabulary invisibly.

For example, in mathematics learning, parents can use many online learning resources APP to draw beautiful animations, and they can integrate abstract knowledge points into the game so that children can learn happily.
