As a precious mom and dad, from the beginning of perceiving the existence of life, she consciously carried out parent-child reading: during pregnancy, she quietly read to the baby in her belly; A few months after I was born, I showed my child a small card and read it to him. After one year old, hold his little finger and teach him to read while reading. ......
After a few years, children's books piled up at home. Although parents and children have to read it every day, children, like online celebrities, will also look for parents to read it. After reading it, they immediately get up and leave, and usually don't take the initiative to watch it themselves.
Why can other children take the initiative to read books, while your child is "punching in"?
It was not until I saw How to Make Children Love Reading that I realized that it was not enough to "keep reading" on the road of parent-child reading. Simply "insisting on reading" will kill children's reading enthusiasm in the passage of time and become a punch card tour.
The author Megan Daley is a student majoring in children's reading. She grew up in a scholarly family and loved reading since childhood. I have received professional reading training and mastered professional knowledge in the field of children's reading. He integrated this book based on his more than 20 years of parenting and teaching experience. According to the various stages of children's reading ability development, he provided suggestions on how to take children to choose suitable reading materials, how to understand the contents of books and how to integrate reading into life.
So, what can she do to make children love reading?
How old is it "appropriate" for children to start reading to them?
Megan Daley clearly pointed out: "From birth, of course!"
The growth of children is a process from scratch, from being born ignorant to knowing everything when they grow up. Children need a way to show them the world.
Although TV and video are rich in color and high in reproduction, they have a great influence on the baby's vision. Therefore, reading is the best way to know the world.
"Books should be the standard and essential for newborns."
According to the law of children's physical and mental development, parents should choose books suitable for their children to read. Under one year old, you can read some children's books with few words, many pictures and bright colors, preferably cartoon images, which are easy for children to accept.
As a four-and-a-half-year-old baby, I have been studying with my daughter since she was three months old. At first, I chose magazines instead of foreign picture books. Personally, I think children walk fastest in the most familiar environment, so I chose China's book. The first thing I read was Baby Illustrated magazine. The protagonist of this book is a child over/kloc-0.
It can be said that before her daughter was 3 years old, she liked reading very much. She often comes to me with books for me to read. Through reading, she not only let him know butterflies, bees and so on. It also made him understand, "I want to save money to buy a hearing aid for my grandfather."
As Megan Daley said, "I read to my children and let them enjoy reading."
Therefore, treasure parents, don't be idle, you must take more time to take your children into the door of reading.
Einstein once said, "Interest is the best teacher."
However, as children go to school, the attraction of the outside world increases, and it is difficult for children to maintain their interest in reading. Some children even give up reading and watch TV instead.
Children aged 0-3 like reading, but they don't really like it, just because reading is the only entertainment to go out. Children who can take the initiative to read after 4 years old really like reading.
My daughter is about 4 years old. She no longer takes the initiative to take books, but cries and watches cartoons.
So, how to make children change from "fake love reading" to "true love reading"?
Megan Daley pointed out in the book that it is necessary to attract children's interest. I summed it up as "playing the clown".
Being a clown, as its name implies, is to make children happy and interested. Every child likes clowns. Clowns can change different patterns and always surprise children.
So as parents, to keep their children interested in reading, they must learn from clowns and change different models.
In addition to reading directly to children, you can also accompany your children to read in the following ways:
1. Create handmade books.
Children will also have all kinds of whimsy when reading books, or they may make up a short story casually, so parents can record their children's small ideas and short stories in time. Make handmade books with children according to their stories.
If children usually have the habit of drawing, let them talk about what they draw and help them record these "stories" on the back of the painting. Slowly, they will learn to associate images with words.
By creating handmade books, children can not only feel interesting, but also cultivate their potential for self-exploration.
2. Shadow play
For books with strong stories, after reading them, parents and children can perform with their children in the form of shadow play.
When my little girl was four years old, we went to see the Journey to the West together. But it is difficult for children to remember stories, so I bought a set of shadow play equipment and played shadow play with them every night. My daughter is particularly interested in performing while performing surgery. It not only exercises the coordination of hands, but also cultivates the ability of language expression.
When reading, let children listen, watch and do as much as possible, which will not only make children more focused, but also make the whole reading experience more interesting. "
paint
"Encouraging children to paint, write, create and modify boldly is the best way to help them form their own unique style and accept their own' artistic mistakes'. Writing, drawing and reading should be taken as a whole method to cultivate literate children and let them understand and create words and images by themselves. "
Only the initiative from the heart is a stable love, so parents should be "clowns", change different patterns, attract children's interest, and let children form stable reading habits.
Reading is the most cost-effective education investment and the noblest threshold.
Falling in love with reading is the responsibility of parents and the habit that children should have most.
