Become a gourmet of children's books with children

Become a gourmet of children's books with children. In daily life, I believe that every parent wants to educate their children, and it is very important to cultivate their children's interest in reading. Let's share the gourmets who became children's books with children. Let's take a look. Gourmets who become children's books with their children are 1

at the age of zero, and begin to cultivate small gourmets

When does it take to cultivate children's book gourmets? The answer is, from the age of zero. When Mr. Matsujuzhi, a Japanese picture book publisher, gave a speech, an audience asked him: How to make children like books-by words? Or by painting? His answer is simple: by ear.

Hearing is an instinct, but listening is an acquired ability. Listening is a very important language ability. Unlike simply "hearing", listening is a conscious and meaningful response. The ancients said: "reading nourishes the spirit." This "qi" is the "qi" of temperament and magnanimity. Those who have the "qi" of reading must be good at listening.

As long as you are willing, you can give your child a reading experience from the moment he is born. The easiest way is to read aloud for children. If you haven't started reading for your children yet, start now, it's never too late. Good children's book recommendation: read anything as long as it is what adults like, and of course it is best to read books with bright rhythm and beautiful rhythm.

read the sound

"loud" doesn't mean high decibel, but "read the sound". It is better to carry out this activity as a ceremony, for example, in roughly the same environment and at a relatively fixed time. It doesn't take too long, and it doesn't exceed the normal attention range of children at a time. As long as you persist, children will become good "listeners".

Picture books, foods that meet children's characteristics

In terms of diet, we will prepare foods suitable for children, not adults. In reading, picture books are spiritual food suitable for children. Choosing a good children's book is a learning process. Most of the parents of our generation and the previous generation grew up in an environment where children's books were very scarce. Most of them knew almost nothing about the world of children's books except Andersen and Green. In fact, children's literary world is a very vast and beautiful world.

For preschool and early school children, picture books are the most suitable reading materials. In foreign countries, picturebook is a quite mature literary style, which is called "picture book" in Britain and America and "picture book" in Japan. The author of the earliest picture book was Potter in England. About 11 years ago, she created The Story of Peter Rabbit to comfort a sick boy. Porter set an example for picture books, that is, the expressive force and narrative ability of pictures are not inferior to words.

Psychologists have provided many suggestions for reading picture books. For example, the content should be easy and suitable for children's age. But what is the standard of "easy"? Studies have shown that repeated sentence patterns, repeated words and repeated characters/animal images in the same series of books will reduce the difficulty of reading. The length and complexity of the sentences in the book should not exceed the children's comprehension, most of the words used should be familiar to children, and the length of the book should be within the children's attention range.

Good children's book recommendation: Classic picture books often have distinct artistic styles. For example, "GoodnightMoon" in the United States, the concise words contain poetic rhythm. Although it is a simple story of a rabbit sleeping, it creates a dreamlike one. Atmosphere can not only make children quiet and fall asleep, but also have a hypnotic magic for adults.

picture books not only have good pictures and good words, but also achieve the perfect combination of pictures and words as an ideal marriage. As Song Juzhi said: "Picture books are not pictures plus words, but pictures multiplied by words." Without this perfect combination, it can only be called illustrated children's books at most. Many children's books on the market belong to this type.

Nutritional collocation and good taste conditions

If food includes staple food, non-staple food, fast food and exquisite food, the proportion of various books should also be considered when choosing children's books.

There are three kinds of children's picture books. One is "story books", which are children's novels. One is a "knowledge book", which is an encyclopedia for children, such as a book about cars; There is also a "concept book", which is equivalent to children's advertisements and is to "sell" a certain concept to children, such as the "opposite" concept. In the field of children's reading, these three books are like three types of "food". When parents choose books for their children, they need to pay attention to the balance of nutrition, and it is best to cover all three books.

Unfortunately, many children's books on the market today are of the "potato feast" type. Pictures are often colored by computers, and the colors look dazzling but they are actually dull. The characters and animals in it look cute at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that the "cuteness" is actually very stereotyped. Reading one book is no different from reading ten books. Some of the contents are rewriting of classic fairy tales, leaving only the beginning and the end, while others are shoddy and can't stand scrutiny. As for words, some are unattractive to read, while others completely ignore the reader's age. This kind of fast food books, which are poor in nutrition, quick to make and forgotten faster, cannot be the main ingredient in children's recipes.

Good children's book recommendation: For example, The Lost Corner, a masterpiece by American children's book master Silverstein, seems to be a very simple story: a circle with a missing corner went over mountains to find its lost corner, but after finding it, he found many new regrets, so he gave it up again. This story can be understood by 3-year-old children, but it is also very memorable for adults.

what is the standard of a good book? The idol of magic mother Rowling ―― British writer C. S。 Lewis (The Legend of Narnia) said: "Children's literature that can only be appreciated by children is bad children's literature." Good children's books are not only liked by children, but also can arouse the respect and love of adults. So you don't have to worry about guessing your child's mind any more. You can confidently choose children's books that you can like, instead of conforming to the "Altman" that children blindly like.

parent-child reading, the process of making food

No matter how good the raw materials are, they can't become food without careful cooking. Good children's books also need good reading methods. Taking reading as a particularly utilitarian thing will often erase the happiness of reading. For example, it is true to ask questions, but it is boring for children to cope with exams. This is especially true when children are forced to read. Adults should read with their children with a playful attitude.

Classic picture books, such as Cute Little Mouse, The Story of Peter Rabbit and The Tree of Love, should be read to children with emotion. After the children are familiar with it, they can read in roles, perform plays, do manual activities and so on. Warm and romantic books, such as Tim and Sharan, are suitable for mothers to read; And exaggerated, masculine books, such as I am a Tyrannosaurus Rex, can be read by dad. In addition to reading, you can also chat with your children, or hold a "small reading party" with friends with similar interests and children of the same age.

Good children's book recommendation: There are really many particularly interesting books. For example, in Dr. Seuss's books in the United States, the pictures are exaggerated and funny, and the seemingly upside-down words bring the power of humor to the extreme. There is also Japan's "Pig on a Sunny Day" series, and that kind of "sinister" style is really ridiculous.

The method of "playing" books can be summed up in the following two aspects: 1. Insist on reading with parents and children enjoying themselves; Second, strive to create a suitable reading environment. As Song Juzhi said, what you can feel is a kind of "joy from the depths of your heart and from the foundation of existence". This kind of joy is actually the best place for parents and children to read. Reading is not practice. The secret of successful parent-child reading is to enjoy the pleasure of reading with children, let children love books through the transmission of love, and let the habit of happy reading accompany them for life.

Become a children's book gourmet with children

Several basic points of reading fairy tales to children:

(1) Stories are stories:

Many people are used to "sitting in the right place" in literature reading, and this tendency is more obvious when reading stories to children. For example, I often listen to adults exhorting children, and ask children how they are like someone in the story. This is a way to interpret stories, but as a literary reading, it is not necessarily good, or even a bit bad. Almost everyone knows the story of Cinderella, but there should be very few women who turn themselves into "Cinderella waiting for the prince to save". Today, although we may not agree with the protagonist's personality and life orientation, the story of Cinderella is still beautiful. Because "a story is a story", a master reader knows how to "jump out" from the story and how to guide children to jump out.

Learn to keep your distance so that you can appreciate the story better. There are goodness and beauty in the story, as well as evil and ugliness. They are all valuable experiences in life. If you don't know ugliness, you won't know beauty and goodness. From the perspective of literary appreciation, the more vivid the ugliness and evil (if inevitable) in the story, the more perfect the story will be. In fairy tales, children will eventually land safely.

I don't think it is necessary to deliberately avoid the dark side of fairy tales on the premise of fully considering children's intelligence and emotional acceptance. At the same time, there is no need to turn stories into truth, and there is no need to use stories to reason. A story is a story. A truly excellent story has strong moral power.

(2) The importance of language:

Fairy tales are literature, and literature is expressed through language. When we read fairy tales to our children, we are also helping them enjoy and learn literary language. A truly excellent fairy tale master is often a master of language. The brothers Grimm, who collect and sort out Grimm's Fairy Tales, are linguists themselves. Chinese and foreign writers who have created classic fairy tales for children, such as Andersen, Dickens, Carol, Wilde, Graham, Porter, Lin Gelun, White, Dr. Seuss, Ender, Jansson, Dahl, Ba Jin, Bing Xin, Zhang Tianyi, Ye Shengtao, Chen Bochui, Sun Youjun, etc., have deep language skills and understand children's psychology very well. I have always stubbornly advised adults that when reading fairy tales to their children, they should choose the original (including the good translation of the original) as much as possible, and use less all kinds of rewritten and abbreviated versions.

(3) Importance of pictures:

Apart from developing children's thinking ability in images intuitively, the biggest function of pictures in children's reading is pleasure, which makes children easily accept them and gain literary and artistic influence unconsciously. Read fairy tales to children, and choose readers with good illustrations as much as possible, preferably real picture books. The real picture book is not the kind of book with explanatory illustrations. The pictures in the picture book can also tell stories. The narrative of words and pictures have their own advantages, which are irreplaceable and set each other off.

(4) Importance of selecting the best:

Reading books, including fairy tales, to children aims to make them acquire the habit of reading and keep their enthusiasm for reading. Generally speaking, children should be given enough freedom of choice when it comes to reading. But childhood is very short, and children are not born reading experts, so adults should try their best to choose excellent works for their children and gradually cultivate their ability to choose the best.

Due to the shortcomings of childhood, many adults lack the experience of reading fairy tales. Apart from Grimm's fairy tales and Andersen's fairy tales, they know almost nothing about the excellent works in the world of children's literature at home and abroad. In fact, this is a very vast and beautiful world, and there are countless fairy tale classics at home and abroad, and excellent fairy tales in the form of picture books have also formed a very grand trend in today's world. Today's children are really very happy! As long as we adults can meditate and learn modestly, we can find countless treasures from this beautiful world.

The beauty of children's books with pictures

They are widely accumulated, laying a good foundation for writing

When I was a child, I especially liked listening to stories, especially when adults told me stories with picture books. No matter what the story is, as long as someone is willing to tell it to me, I can listen to it with relish. If I can tell the story with a beautiful picture book, my interest will be even higher. After I know some words and pictures myself, I also take the initiative to find some picture books to read, and tell myself stories while reading them.

After the third grade of primary school, there will be a composition class. My writing ability has been well received by my teachers when many students are struggling to write their compositions. In fact, I haven't received any special training. If you ask me why I can write such a good composition, I really can't say it clearly at that time. It was not until I grew up that I gradually realized that the reason why I was able to have a good writing talent was due to my extensive reading when I was a child. I read more picture books than others and spoke more than others, so I naturally wrote smoothly.

Experience the natural humanity in books

Don't look at "reading picture books" from a utilitarian perspective. For children, every interesting story is a good memory of childhood.

There is a story about Mino Cat Going to the Street to Buy Fish, which my daughter and I like very much. The main idea is that an old man is in poor health, so I asked Mino the cat to buy fish for him. Mino, the kitten, always thought along the way, "I'll eat the fish myself and then go back and apologize to grandpa." What's the reason? For example, the fish has been crying, which is very pitiful, so let the fish go; The fish suddenly grew wings and flew away; I met a hungry cat and gave it fish to eat ... How can I apologize? Do you want to pretend to be pathetic, or just beg for forgiveness? Or do you apologize and perform acrobatics to make grandpa happy?

I have always liked this story, because the content of the story is both interesting and humanized, and the ending is warm and humorous. Children can see that a cat doesn't suppress its nature (love to eat fish) and doesn't defend its idea (want to eat fish). Everything is natural and reasonable. If Mino the cat is always thinking about how to endure not eating fish along the way, then the story is a bit self-suppressed and self-denied, and it is a bit too artificial, and loses its original humor and interest.

Look at pictures and talk, and give full play to your infinite imagination

Picture books with large pictures, or even "wordless books" where few words can be found throughout, are the best teaching materials for training children to tell stories and write compositions. Because colorful and lovely pictures are much more interesting than a dry composition topic, children are more active and creative in writing.
