Does your child have an interest class?
Under what circumstances should children be given interest classes of their choice?
What kind of interest class did you choose?
A few days ago, a child's classmate had a birthday, and several of our parents got together.
Originally, the time was scheduled for the child to get out of school at half past four in the afternoon, go home and put down his schoolbag to pack up, and go straight to the restaurant at six o'clock.
As a result, several of us arrived, and another parent said that he was still on his way.
When we asked, we found out that the child was out of school and had a dance class of more than an hour.
Mom took the kids to dance class first, then went home to clean up and then came to the restaurant to meet us, so they were a bit of a delay.
Everyone casually asked if there was an interest class for the child and what interest class to report.
Generally speaking, parents choose interest classes for their children, nothing more than two purposes, one is to hope that their children will change the current situation through interest classes, such as physical fitness improvement, and the other purpose is to follow the crowd, everyone is learning, and their children have to arrange one, which is common in the learning Xi of musical instruments.
However, one of the parent's choices makes us feel very novel.
This parent is a mother of two children, in addition to the eldest of the same age, there is also a 5-year-old second child in the kindergarten class at home.
This mother likes sports very much, so she hopes that her children will also participate in certain sports to enhance their quality.
But this mother did not choose interest classes directly, but gave her children a few similar trial classes of this kind of sports interest classes around her home, such as football, basketball, fighting, taekwondo, etc., all of which were not left behind.
At the end of the audition, the mother found that the child was only interested in badminton.
Mom asked us, do you know why children are interested in badminton?
We shook our heads.
The mother said that this was also what she found out later. It turns out that her second child is a bit introverted in personality, or she is not a person who takes the initiative to contact others, she prefers to stay at home, does not want to contact the surroundings, and she will withdraw from that type.
Like football, basketball, etc., it requires Xi to take the initiative, there may be a certain amount of physical collision, and people need to be relatively honest with each other.
Compared with other interest classes, badminton is softer at the beginning, catching the ball, and then swinging the racket, relatively speaking, there is no collision with people, and the body can maintain a certain sense of security. At the same time, there is a layer of net in the middle of playing badminton, and the two sides will not face each other directly, which also gives the second child a psychological buffer and becomes interested in playing badminton.
From the practical point of view of interest classes, it is necessary for children to participate in interest classes.
But the choice of interest classes must be based on the following aspects:
Whether it is a hobby of the child
Although parents are under the banner of "good for you", the premise must be that the child likes it, otherwise it will only be a waste of time and money to apply for more classes, and the child will be rejected.
Diverse hobbies
There are a variety of interest classes, very exciting, parents can according to the actual situation of their children, such as the relaxation of time, such as the energy is strong enough, reasonable arrangement of interest classes, multi-angle to improve the child's own ability.
A channel for venting
I don't know, have you ever paid attention to the venting of children's emotions. If he has a hobby, he will naturally vent it through his hobby when he encounters difficulties or setbacks, rather than losing his temper. Through hobbies, it can soothe the soul and make children better from a different perspective.
Interest classes have sprung up, adapting to this era and slowly rising, as long as you think of it, it has appeared in the market.
But when choosing an interest class, you should pay attention to these aspects:
Economic conditions
We choose interest classes for our children, we must not follow the crowd, you learn what others learn. This implies two meanings, one is that the interest classes suitable for children are the best interest classes, and the other is whether their own economic conditions can support the sustainability of these interest classes.
Hobbies are not a whim-spur choice, but to be long-lasting in order to be more effective.
Respect the child
Interest classes are for children, not parents. Parents feel that this is very good, that is good, but in the eyes of the children, they are all negative, and there is no way to go on for a long time with such an interest class. Therefore, it is necessary to respect the child's wishes and discuss with the child so that the interest class will continue.
Carefully selected
On the market, the quality of interest classes is uneven, and when parents choose, they should measure it from multiple angles, whether it is the qualifications of teachers and coaches, or the strength of interest class institutions, including the quality and effect of courses, etc., these are many comparisons to choose. I'd rather not go to an interest class, and if I do, then I have to choose one carefully.
Pudding's mother chattered
The selection of interest classes should be based on the actual situation of the children, and the effect should be seen from a long-term perspective, rather than being limited to participating in a competition or engaging in a kind of activity.
Interest classes should have an effect, which may be how much knowledge they have learned, how many competitions they have participated in, how many awards they have won, and in the longer term, the child's future competitiveness will be enhanced.
