Educating children no matter how early or how late will be effective
Educating children no matter how early or how late will be effective
A friend whose online name is uimt because he loves his children, he was afraid of delaying his future and even planned to give the child away, but in the end he entered a sunny world. uimt posted a post on my forum and reposted it here, not to show off, but in the hope that more people will truly understand early education, realize the importance of early education, and discover themselves when educating children and find some better solutions. This method makes the communication between parents and children more interesting.
I remember one day I was chatting with Tao Zhiyuan on the topic of early childhood education on MSN. We couldn't help but sigh sadly: indeed, there are still many parents who do not realize the importance of early childhood education, let alone understand the true meaning of early childhood education. I often feel sad to see them delaying the best development period of my baby, but there is nothing I can do about it. Many times, I put down the work at hand and reply to posts on my blog and forums. In fact, I have no special motivation. I just want more people to understand the two sentences mentioned in the uimt post: "Raising children trusts experts more Believe in yourself” and “It’s never too early to educate your children, and it will be effective no matter how late you educate your children.”
Fortunately, my friends all attach great importance to early education under my influence. I am sure that their children will develop better than Chenchen in the future, because they do not need to blindly follow their feelings like I did back then. They have more. They use parenting knowledge to fill their minds, so they are destined to make fewer detours than me.
I am here to wish all parents in the world, hope they all have a healthy and smart baby, and I hope they can take action as soon as possible to give their baby a happier tomorrow.

I have been wanting to say thank you to Sister Lin here for a long time, but because I was too busy looking at past posts (I posted late), I recently dived into Sister Lin’s books when I had some free time, and was eager to recharge my batteries, so I ended up writing this paragraph. I just wrote these words from the bottom of my heart today. Before I had children, I also read some books about early childhood education, such as "Discovering Mother", "Calvert's Education", "Stena's Natural Education", etc. I understood that early education can be effective, and I looked forward to the day of such education. Ideas work wonders on their own children. But when the child was born, everything went out of order. The body was weak, the confusion about parenting, the helplessness of no one to help, and even the maternity leave was repeatedly extended because there was no one to take care of the child. At that time, I also read "Win at the Starting Point" by Liu Jie. To be honest, this book did not have much effect on me. On the contrary, it gave me more and more lack of confidence, because my child lost at the starting point. My social status and economic conditions were not superior, and I was even too weak to take care of my children. When I thought about old Calvert's erudition and Stena's talents, I gave up, and gave up painfully. Facing my son's handsome face, I suddenly came up with this idea: I can't just delay the child. If a family with good conditions is willing to adopt him, I will give him away.
For a new mother, this is such a sad and helpless thought. But it's real! In this lingering state of mind full of regret, my son grew up day by day, and my helplessness only fueled my regret. It can be said that I was in a very bad mood. Until one day I read Sister Lin's article "The purpose of education is to stop teaching one day". It made my eyes light up, especially what Sister Lin said, "In raising children, you must trust experts more than yourself" and "Educate children more. "It's never too early, and it will be effective no matter how late it is." Yes, instead of feeling sorry for yourself here, it's better to take action as soon as possible. And Sister Lin’s educational philosophy is so easy to operate. It doesn’t require my full-time companionship, nor does it require me to be versatile in music, art, and foreign languages. It’s enough to learn to adapt and radiate, to play and inspire, and to learn from one point to another. .
In the days to come, when I was playing in the sand with my children, I would make various models with them, tell them about deserts and camels, and plant trees with them in the desert to make them grow into oasis. When I go to the garden with my child in autumn, I let him observe the seeds of various trees, and I also start to encourage him to collect garbage. I will remind the children to observe the colors of the water in different rivers, look at the white clouds in the sky, the geese flying in the sky, and listen to the calls of larks. I don’t want my child to be introverted like me. I will pay special attention to encourage my child to say hello to strangers and tell him that others like him. Once there is a dispute with other children, I will not intervene. I will look at it with appreciation. Let the children figure it out on their own. When I am at home in the evening, I will play the word stamping game with my children, and I will also quietly observe the children playing with various toys immersed in them, without interfering in a self-righteous way. I will no longer make a fuss and prevent him from accessing electrical appliances as before, but guide him on the correct method of using them while ensuring safety. My son often surprises me by finding ways to turn off the lights by leaving the refrigerator door open. Method, on the VCD, he can let the small drawer bring the dishes in without pressing the OPEN button. I will also casually tell him in front of the map that the largest island in our country is Taiwan Island, the second largest island is Hainan Island, and the third largest island is my son Chongming Island (Chongming Island). He will be so beautiful. Jump. Reading before going to bed becomes a habit, and parent-child interaction is also mobilized, instead of just reading stories. And by choosing high-quality books, my aesthetic level has also improved. Every bit of life has become the material for education. It can be said that with the help of Sister Lin, my parenting is no longer helpless and boring, and my son and I grow up happily together.
Once, I was holding my child and the toy he was holding fell to the ground. I helped him pick it up. He yelled and threw the toy away, picking it up and throwing it away again. I was confused. This was the toy he liked. ah! I asked him if he didn't want it anymore, but he still yelled. I suddenly understood that my son had to pick it up by himself, and he had to do everything he could usually do. Sure enough, when I put him down, he picked it up by himself and stopped making trouble. Through this incident, I asked myself: Can I ask an expert for such a thing? Can an expert help me solve it? Sister Lin is right, as long as you work hard, you will be the best parenting expert. Recently, my son’s face has become more smiley, and I have gotten rid of the burden in my mind. Sister Lin gave me confidence, and it can be said that she gave me a brand new life. I believe that with the support of Sister Lin’s educational philosophy, I will give my son a happy childhood that will never be erased, which will also become a source of happiness for him throughout his life.
