In Shangrao, Jiangxi Province, a video of a 14-year-old boy squeezing out Peking Opera characters with colored mud caused a heated discussion among netizens. In the video, lifelike Peking Opera characters were born in the hands of the boy, with vivid images and demeanor. If you don't say it, no one can see that it was actually made of colored mud.

So, how can a boy be so patient and meticulous? According to the boy's father, the boy likes this activity since he was a child, and often sits for hours at a time. Of course, parents are very supportive of their children's interest, so the boy will have today's achievements.

While we admire boys' skills, we should also learn from their parents' support and training for boys, because achievements come from interest, so how should we cultivate children's interest?

First of all, before cultivating interests, we should first find out the interests of children. What a child is really interested in must be what he really likes, not the choice he made under the pressure of his parents. Only those who really like it will have the motivation to persist.

Secondly, when children are full of passion, don't be stingy with encouragement. When a child is doing what he likes, he is full of motivation. Of course, he also wants to get encouragement and recognition from his parents very much, so that he will feel that what he is doing is meaningful, and then he will go further and further on this road.

Thirdly, tell children to be prepared to face difficulties, and any achievement will not be smooth sailing. Sometimes, because of their young age, when they encounter setbacks and difficulties, they will feel depressed and even want to give up for a time. At this time, parents should patiently accompany their children and tell them that there is no smooth sailing, and it is inevitable to encounter difficulties. As long as they persevere patiently and overcome this bottleneck, all problems will be solved.

In short, if you want to cultivate children's interest, you can start from the above aspects, help children find interest, and do what they are interested in to the extreme.
