Not long ago, I participated in the interactive activities of children in the community. Some mothers dress their children very generously and appropriately. The beige skirt and decent little leather shoes make other children envious. But some parents said, "What do you dress up for your children? Why are you so grand? " ? Reading more and thinking nothing is good for children. "
If you think like the latter, you are all wet, because beauty blindness is more terrible than illiteracy! As Mu Xin said: "Without aesthetic power, it is a terminal disease, and no knowledge can save it."
The yearning for beauty is not only dressing up, but also the attitude towards life, the edification of music art, the appreciation of ceramic tools and so on. Only by cultivating children's aesthetic ability can they appreciate the charm of poetic artistic conception, and they will not put colorful vulgar things on their bodies and will not tolerate chaotic and dirty environments.
Beauty blindness is worse than illiteracy? Let children become sound talents is the right way! Beauty-blind children are not interested in art, or even don't understand it at all. Their tastes and attitudes can't be compared with those with aesthetic ability. It is impossible to make up lessons temporarily, even if there is, it is only a mechanical knowledge atmosphere, not a real inner cultivation.
To give a simple example, many skills and knowledge deficiencies can be made up by efforts and short-term supplements the day after tomorrow. Just like when you need a ps job, you will specialize in ps skills and meet the job requirements in a short time.
However, it is impossible for us to learn the aesthetic ability of things and the art of life in a short time, and aesthetics needs long-term accumulation and cultivation. Accumulated edification, only when you are fed and guided by your parents from an early age can you achieve perfect qualitative change and become a part of your personality.
From the age of three, children's aesthetic sensitivity period will come, and children will have a general distinction between beauty and ugliness and their own preferences. You will find that children will not only actively choose clothes, but also tend to be perfectionist, trying to pour all the milk into the cup and put the oranges in a complete place. I began to pay attention to self-improvement and the surrounding environment. Although I have aesthetic sensitivity, my aesthetic standards basically come from the adult world, especially my parents' aesthetic ability.
A few years ago, foreign media exposed the curriculum of Prince George in Britain, but the content to be learned at a young age was very extensive. In addition to regular cultural subjects such as language, mathematics, geography, history and science, there are computer, religion, ballet, art and painting classes. George is only five years old, but he has to study more than ten courses.
This is to make children fully developed and logical; Understand history; Will express; Influenced by noble aesthetic taste and artistic accomplishment. These are all essential, and the little prince's education of beauty and his understanding of art can be said to have started at an early age!
The cultivation of aesthetic power has benefited children a lot! 1, children are more imaginative and creative.
The edification of aesthetics and art is a Petri dish of imagination and creativity. As we all know, children in foreign countries have more outdoor activities and more literacy classes, so they are more creative and practical than cultural teaching that emphasizes theoretical classes in China. It's because we don't have enough artistic influence on our children, and our aesthetic ability has not been improved.
Children with higher aesthetic ability will generally have strong concentration, and will carefully observe and be careful about beautiful and appreciative things. He has a sharper sense of art. When he collects data and information, he processes it through his own mind and then performs it, such as painting and writing poems.
2. Children's horizons are more open.
Children on the aesthetic network tend to look at history and understand astronomy and geography. Because he wants to learn different cultures, colors and structures from all kinds of things. Moreover, they will have their own unique opinions. Children who play piano in primary school will definitely have a sense of shock to world famous songs, unlike other children who simply don't understand them.
The more you look at it, the more you understand it, which is to shape children's elegant aesthetic taste. At this time, the child's mind will be as broad as the sky, inclusive of more culture and aesthetics, and no longer limited to his own small world.
Children learn other subjects better.
The all-round development of morality, intelligence, physique, beauty and labor is the direction that our education should strive for. It has the charm of function in mathematics and the charm of human body structure in dance; Therefore, we can see that art and culture have something in common-aesthetics teaches children how to discover and understand beauty.
In Letters from Fu Lei, Fu Lei talks with children about art, music and study. Children are also advised to visit museums, from ancient Greek sculptures to Dunhuang murals. This is the enlightenment and continuation of beauty. Only by improving the aesthetic ability first can we find that the geometric figures in mathematics are also beautiful.
How should parents stimulate their children's yearning for beauty? 1, respect children's aesthetics and ideas
When children are 2-3 years old and enter the aesthetic sensitive period, with a preliminary understanding of beauty, parents will begin to stimulate their children's yearning for beauty and improve their aesthetic ability. The most basic thing is to respect children's choices and requirements. Just as children like to wear eye-catching colors, parents should not always buy dark ones.
Respect children's right to choose clothes and collocation, and provide children with reasonable choice of objects. Of course, if parents think their children's aesthetics are really elusive, you can give them more choices, such as the choice of picture books. If children like violent ones, you can buy healthier ones. Guide children to form a correct aesthetic view.
As we all know, Huang Lei's daughter Huang Duoduo can dress herself up, wear lipstick, earrings and dye her hair at a very young age. These are the respects of Mr. and Mrs. Huang Lei, who guide their children to love correctly and create beauty with practical actions. These will become the envy of children of the same age. Many of them are not only beautiful, but also versatile and excellent in learning.
2. Guide children to discover beauty and touch beauty.
Life is full of beauty, except for a pair of eyes that will find beauty. We can start with the simplest in daily life, cultivate children's aesthetics, let children buy vegetables, observe the colors of different plants, and find the gorgeous structure and color collocation of fruits and vegetables most intuitively. You can also let your child learn to set the plate and see which color will look better.
Let the children go outdoors more. The magical nature has countless charms. They can feel colorful flowers, insects with different shapes and leaves with vertical and horizontal veins.
Older children can take their children to museums, art galleries and art galleries. There may be many abstract things that children can't understand, but it can't be wrong to cultivate them from an early age. At this time, they can know that it is beautiful but they don't know where it is, which is also good.
Children can write down inspiration and other people's ideas and accumulate them as their own materials.
3. Let go of your hands and let the children create.
Parents should not think that their children's main task is to study, and study and then study. This is a backward concept. Don't suppress children's love for beauty, but allow them to explore, try and create beauty.
When children want to wear white clothes and draw their own abstract paintings, don't stop them, just let them play freely. Strengthen children's hands-on ability, let children arrange flowers themselves, DIY together, and even make clothes with children with paper or cloth.
Parents should also participate in guidance while encouraging their children. After all, children still need correct standards and guidance from adults.
The real aesthetic education is to guide rather than stop beauty, and both internal and external training will be the whole of an excellent child. Beautiful and neat appearance, connotative aesthetic taste and rich knowledge are children's lifelong yearning.
