How will foster the infant's curiosity
Curious heart, the person all has. Curiosity early of the infant came out with respect to expression. Be in early new student period, the child can is opposite shining, the object of color delicacy is looked attentively at curiously. 5 ～ when 6 months, he hears sound to seek acoustical source curiously. The child can run after can saying, he can be unable to bear the loneliness of the room, taking strong curiosity to run outdoors go amuse oneself, go " expeditionary seek novelty " . "The sky can rain " , " the sun came out to fall again everyday " , " small duck swims and the chickling won't swim " etc, all metropolises of all these let the child feel curious, feel interesting. He can raise all sorts of curious questions because of curiosity. Can in next wet he ask " why does the aunt want to open an umbrella? " " why doesn't the grandfather grows beard and mom grow beard? " " why spend a hen to lay and big cock does not lay " etc, multifarious, call a person to reply hard.
The child is a few bigger, strong curiosity still can make him start work experiment, appropriative even small broken bad element. His regular meeting be bored with toy throw about, ground of ransack boxes and chests is searched in the home play freshly art. See the blue genius that speech of the conference on TV screen, meeting sings, he is met round the television left look right look, flap with the hand television, shouting to want those puppy to come out to accompany him to play. See mom scatters the seed in underground to be able to sprout, he also can plant watermelon seed in the ground, look to sprout in light of gouge everyday, see barber gives a customer tonsorial, scissors also can be taken to lop a head to downy dog, doll after he comes home. These behaviour are caused because of the child's curiosity.
Treat the child's curiosity correctly, the issue that includes to treat the child correctly to put forward destroys behavior with what treat the child correctly to be brought about because of curiosity two respects.
1. treats the child's query correctly
Because the child's curiosity manages, intellectual range is narrow, experience of life is simple, he often can be carried a few babyish, let a person even the problem of belly laugh. Feel simple to you, the problem that already replied, he can inquire into the root of the matter, asked over and over, not tire of its are irritated, let a person ward off blows hard. The child is good asking is meddlesome, but the curiosity that wants contented child, let the child get satisfactory answer is a tickler however. This asks we pay attention to the art that treats child query.
(We should encourage 1) the child quizs, inspire child query, not acid, derisive. A child is good ask, explain his curiosity is strong, seek knowledge desire powerful and prosperous, we should undertake praise and be encouragemented to him, seasonable, correct, common ground replies. If the parent ignores the child's query, to problem ignore of the child, disrelish the child even irritated, can bring about the child not dare or do not wish to quiz again, lost curiosity and enthusiasm to everything all round. Gorky once had said: "To the problem of children, if the answer says,waiting, was brought up to be able to understand. This is equal to give up of children curious desire. " so, the parent should reply to the child's query. Ignore the issue of solution really at that time to a few children, cannot give the child with " wait for you to be brought up, read book became much can understand " such answer, should encourage the child to learn knowledge further, oneself seek the solution.
(The problem of 2) answer child should have inspire a gender. The problem to directional sex (if what that is? What do this call? ) child of OK and direct answer, but concern to having logic with the issue with more complex etc, the parent should notice to guide the child to think, let the child use his already some intellectual experience, find out the answer through observation and summary. Have a such example: A child looks at aerial full moon to ask: "Father, the moon is met forever forever so round, so bright? " this father did not reply directly, just say: "Pass a few days to look again, you can discover this secret, know the answer. " after a few days, in the night with a hazy moon, father is taking the child to come out to see a moon. The child saw the moon of curved turn says again: "Father, curved moon is bad, round still moon is good, do you say the moon still can become round? " this father still did not reply directly, had promised for some time to take him to come out to look again however. He saw the moon of round circle again later, he shouts gladly: "Really interesting, the moon is met from what become a turn roundly, from what become a circle curvedly. " of this father reply means is to be worth to affirm and be advocated. It makes the child's curiosity gets satisfaction already, the observation that lets a child pass his again thinks understood " the month has Yin Qing circle to be short of " phenomenon.
