Scene 1
Building blocks
The child is concentrating on building blocks without blinking, immersed in the joy of building blocks.
At this time, mother came over:
"Baby, what are you building? It's so beautiful, like a castle!"
"Baby, mother cut an apple for you. Eat a piece quickly to supplement your vitamins."
" Baby, be careful, you are not doing this right, you look like your mother."
Scene 2
Reading a picture book
One afternoon, the child sat in front of the bookshelf, looking at the picture book seriously, and mumbling a few words from time to time.
At this time, the family group of relatives and friends went online:
"Baby, are you reading a book? Let me read what book you are reading?"
"Baby, you are wrong, this is xx, not xx."
"Baby, do you want to read this book? Let me tell you about it!"
Are you familiar with these two scenes?
Every word expresses love for children, but for children, this love is not love... Under the banner of "love", they are doing things that destroy children's concentration.
This approach is killing children's concentration, so parents, please stop it!
The correct approach should be: when the child is concentrating on doing one thing, please do not disturb him. Do not do this easily.
Montessori once said: Never disturb a child unless invited by the child.
Concentration is a continuous cognitive activity
When the baby is focusing on playing with toys, the parents suddenly ask the baby to do something else. This extra behavior will interrupt the baby's concentration while playing with toys. The allocation of attention is itself a very difficult thing for young children. That is to say: when the baby focuses on one thing, it is difficult to pay attention to another thing, so if parents are Interrupting at this time is detrimental to the maintenance and cultivation of children's concentration.
0--3 years old is the golden period for children's brain development, followed by 3-6 years old. This stage is also a good time to cultivate children's concentration, and parents must pay attention to it.
If parents can avoid holding back, then the rest will be bonus points.
To cultivate children's concentration, we can do this:
1. Don't disturb
When a child is doing something seriously, parents must first not disturb them unless invited by the child. If the mother really wants to participate in the baby's activities, she can observe silently from the sidelines now, and then participate when the baby takes the initiative to post or invites the mother to join.
2. Create a quiet and clean environment for children
A messy environment and noisy sounds are the sources of destroying children's concentration. A bull-headed child's concentration may be distracted by other things,
. Therefore, if you see your child doing something seriously, parents must give their child enough space and a quiet environment.
3. Deliberately cultivating
can find out the child's interests. For example, if the child likes building blocks and cars, then the mother can prepare some related picture books, building toys, etc. for the child. Use interest to attract your child's attention.
Finally, I would like to share with you some small games to cultivate children's concentration. It is recommended to save them!
In addition, there are many sports that can also cultivate children's concentration, such as: playing ball, badminton, table tennis, etc.
