" natural deletion " refers to the breakdown of the relationship between children and nature, resulting in a series of worrying symptoms. For example, learning difficulties, attention disorders, anxiety, irritability, loneliness, etc.
Especially in the past two or three years, the epidemic has been repeated, and often taking online classes, children become less likely to go out and play, and they are prone to "natural deficiencies" and have learning difficulties (such as working hard but not getting better grades); attention disorder; anxiety, irritability, loneliness, depression; obesity and other problems. The only way to solve this symptom is to go out and into nature.
Let children go into the wild, fall in love with nature, use the power of nature to improve their learning ability, heal bad emotions, and strengthen physical fitness, which requires the correct method to guide them. In a word, you need to read books in this area.
Most of the books suitable for children to read in nature are relatively young natural science picture books or picture books, focusing on the imparting of scientific knowledge, lacking the guidance of natural observation methods and natural concepts, making it difficult to let children go outdoors, feel nature, and observe nature.
Recently, I found a set of treasure books "Go to the Wild" . This set of books is a natural observation story written by Enid Brighton for children . The author Enid Brighton is very amazing. She is the most admired children's book writer in " Harry Potter " J.K. Rowling . Her work is also an enlightenment book by J.K. Rowling .
This set of books leads children and five ramblers into the wild through storytelling, knowing every flower and grass, a tree and a leaf, and feeling the amazing beauty of the four seasons.
This set of books is very classic. It has been circulated for more than 70 years and has been sold continuously. It has sold over millions of sets in total. It has been published and distributed in more than 20 countries. It is a must-have guide for countless nature lovers.
"Walk, Go to the Wild" is a natural observation story written by the famous British children's literature writer Enid Brighton, combining his childhood and his father's outdoor nature adventure experience, as well as his early years of nature teaching and writing experiences. It tells the story of a neighboring Uncle Merry taking three children - Pat, Janet, John, and his puppy Fergus, on a relaxed and pleasant nature walk twice a month.
Accompanied by the uncle of the neighbor's nature writer, the three children quickly became nature lovers. After a year of persistence, they met thousands of different natural things, learned a lot of scientific knowledge about animals and plants, felt the changes of the four seasons, and found the key to open the door to nature.
Japanese Nobel Prize winner in Physics Reiyu Nai Ezaki once said: "A person develops the initial, innocent interest and desire to explore through contact with nature when he is young. This is a very important scientific enlightenment education and a road to the generation of scientific masters. It should be cherished, carefully cultivated, and constantly motivated and cared for!"
can be seen. It is very important to a person's growth by observing, discovering and exploring nature since he was a child!
reasons why this set of books is worth recommending
. Cultivate children's ability to observe, focus, explore, learn and other abilities in nature walks
The biggest gain this set of books brings to children is to turn off the game, put down your phone, go into nature, and take a natural exploration journey without plug-in.
children who originally had no understanding of nature, led by their uncle next door, started a relaxed and pleasant nature walk twice a month. After a year of persistence, the children have become nature lovers and accumulated rich natural science knowledge.
Twice a month, 24 natural walks a year, each time is a brand new experience, and each time has new gains.This is very helpful for cultivating children's natural observation ability, and cultivating concentration, exploration, learning ability and other abilities.
In the eyes of nature lovers, the world and everything changes every moment, and new discoveries will be made every day. They like these natural changes and are happy to discover the mysteries.
Perhaps, our children are like Pat in the article, feeling that in the middle of winter, we can't see or hear anything outside. But the neighbor Uncle Meili believes that even in winter, you can still see many small animals, birds, trees, and flowers.
The children's curiosity was suddenly aroused, and they were competing to go for a walk with Uncle Meili. When they walked into the wild, their horizons and ideas slowly opened up, they took the initiative to observe, discover, explore, and their desire for knowledge ignited in their hearts. They kept asking questions, and Uncle Meili always answered patiently, guided the children to explore and discover on their own.
They are constantly looking forward to the arrival of early next nature walk, and their understanding and understanding of nature, learning ability, etc. are constantly strengthening.
Just like during a natural walk in June, Janet sighed: "It is far from enough to go out and look for flowers. We must read some knowledge about flowers. The book will tell us all kinds of interesting things, just like the stories that Uncle Merry told us, and we cannot know these things ourselves. I want to know all of this."
stimulated by a strong desire for knowledge, the children took the initiative to pick up the book and study it. Once children have this valuable learning ability, they will use it to learn knowledge in other subjects.
So, in nature, it is true that it can not only cure mental problems, but also improve learning ability.
. It has rich content, covering natural knowledge, natural stories, natural poetry, natural handwriting, natural notes, etc.
nature theme, covering all aspects of nature, the content is really rich, presenting a colorful nature to children.
I have to say that the writing style of a great writer is really great, and the natural poetry he writes is so pure and so beautiful. Let’s take a look at this song “A Calm Day”.
Read this landscape poem, your thoughts float to the distant valley, look at the beautiful scenery in front of you, feel the quiet years, and experience the happiness brought to us by nature.
Natural handmade part is natural wild DIY, allowing children to use natural objects to do some handcrafts, which not only improves creativity and imagination, but also exercises hands-on ability.
In the May Nature Walk of "Midsummer Journey", there is an in-depth explanation of taking natural notes. There is a natural notes table at the back of each book. Children can copy the content of the table, make a natural notebook, and record their own natural observation notes at any time.
. 200+ Natural scientific knowledge points, the explanation is vivid and interesting, and it is easy for children to accept
The book has a lot of scientific knowledge points, which can be seen everywhere, increase children's knowledge reserves and broaden their horizons. Moreover, many of the animals and plants introduced in the book are common to us.
For example, during the nature walk in March of "Into Spring", John's curiosity about mole and Uncle Merry's answers are very interesting and easy for children to understand.
. In addition to imparting natural science knowledge, teach children how to observe nature and help children establish the concept of nature
Children are unwilling to go into the wild and observe nature. In the final analysis, it is because they do not like all things in nature, have a sense of distance from flowers, plants, trees, small animals, etc., and do not accept everything.
Some children may also know a lot of scientific knowledge by reading popular science books and know many small animals, plants, etc., but they do not have a heart that loves nature and animals and plants, let alone make friends with nature. They often step on a weak ant, a cute caterpillar, chase a frightened bird, and are always in opposition to nature. The reason why these children have these actions is because they lack the guidance of correct natural concepts.
A child who has learned to care for small animals since childhood and loves every flower and every grass has a rich heart, full of sunshine and imagination. When he grows up, he will definitely be a person who is willing to help others, be positive and contribute to society. What is worthy of praise for this set of books is that it will teach children how to observe nature, help children establish correct natural concepts, and sow a seed of love for nature in their hearts.
Let’s read the following content carefully, and I believe that you will have a better understanding of nature.
Pull the distance between children and nature, encourage children to go outdoors, integrate into nature, and then experience the fun brought by nature.
The relationship between human beings and nature is inseparable, just as the "Son of Nature" John Muir said, "Nature itself is a part of us." Parents should let their children understand from an early age that everything in nature is alive, just like our brothers and sisters, we should respect, love, and make friends with them like our family.
Let children know how to go to the wild, not only to discover more flowers, more trees, and more small animals, but also to learn to appreciate the natural beauty, feel the natural changes, and experience the inner feelings brought by this change.
. It is not only a popular science book, but also a fresh and timeless children's literature work. It has beautiful language and profound ideas, which helps to improve the writing level.
British children's literature champion writer Mike Mopog said: "Some people can write stories so fascinating like Enid Brighton."
This set of books is very interesting. It uses storytelling to explain scientific knowledge, which is very vivid, and children do not feel bored at all when they read it.
You can see good words, sentences and paragraphs everywhere in the text. You can pick up a few clips at will. After reading it, you will feel a breeze blowing, and your heart is filled with joy.
Language is full of childlike fun and rhythmic, as wonderful as children's poems. In just a few short sentences, it outlines a cheerful daily picture of the farm. These beautiful paragraphs such as
are like prose poems. Children can excerpt them in the notebook and often take them out to read them. This can not only improve language expression skills, but also help improve literary literacy.
. In addition to natural science, the content is also about love, about growth
The reason why the classic works can be passed down is that its theme is definitely profound and can stand the test of time. This set of books is no exception. Its theme is love and growth, and children grow up in natural walks.
Every time I come back from a walk, the children have to pick some natural things such as wild flowers, branches and other natural things to give to my mother, which is very loving. Although mothers were unable to accompany them, they were willing to share the beauty of natural and wild fun with their mothers.
, especially the only girl Janet, gradually overcame all kinds of "phobia" through natural walks, and no longer fears various small insects, bats, lizards, etc., and becomes a true nature lover.
The three children who started playing indoors, not only became knowledgeable, but also knew how to be grateful and truly grew up through natural walks.
The children carefully prepared Christmas gifts for him to thank Uncle Meili for his hard work over the past year.Pat prepared a new cane, Janet's was a white handkerchief embroidered with the initial letter "M" representing "Merry", and John prepared a new notebook and a sharply sharp pencil.
Of course, the children also prepared Christmas gifts for their good friend Fergus. A beautiful collar, a huge bone, a bowl for drinking water made Fergus very happy.
Uncle Merry and Fergus were very happy to receive the cute gifts from the children.
At the end of Christmas, the children hugged Uncle Merry and expressed their gratitude to him, thanking him for the gift he gave them - the key to opening the door to nature.
. The illustrations are exquisitely drawn, from the hands of well-known illustrators, and are very beautiful
6 exquisite hand-painted naturalistic illustrations, echoing the content in the book, are all drawn by well-known foreign illustrators, which help to cultivate children's aesthetic ability.
. Works of famous artists are written based on the author's own experience. They are trustworthy
