Don’t let TV ruin your children during summer vacation. Parents must do these 3 things

After much anticipation, the children finally looked forward to summer vacation. Parents are worried when they see their children happily following each other like little birds out of their cages. Because the children have summer vacation, but the parents don’t. Except for the time in cram school, the child spends most of his time at home with his grandparents. This is amazing, because as long as children are at home, they spend most of their time watching TV! Of course, as a child, it is not only during the summer vacation that I become more interested in television, but also during school days. If you don’t believe it, almost every child in every family will be entangled between TV and homework thousands of times after school. This is really worrying for us as parents. So, how do you keep your kids away from TV? Especially during summer vacation when you can grab a lot of them at once. Tip 1: Cultivate your child’s reading habit. My colleague’s child, Duoduo, is only in second grade this year. I went to her house a few days ago and found that the entire wall of the living room was almost covered with her various awards. The little girl only played with my baby for a while when I first arrived, and then dived into her newly bought book. The quiet little girl heard from her mother that she scored 99 in Chinese and Mathematics in the final exam, and she still felt regretful. I couldn\’t help but sigh, it was really someone else\’s child! My colleague is an artistic mother who loves reading very much. She even reads Mo Yan while riding the bus. Duo Duo has been influenced by it and has read many, many books at a young age. The Naughty Bao Ma Xiaotiao series of books that she recently bought are even more difficult to put down. She has just entered second grade and is able to read and write independently. But the other child I know, Sissi, is different. Sissi is a left-behind child, her parents are working in other places, and she lives with her grandparents. Because we are related, I can see her every time I go back to my hometown. When Sissi, who is in fifth grade, comes home from school, the first thing she does is put down her schoolbag and turn on the TV to watch idol dramas. She knows Li Yifeng, Zhao Liying, Zheng Shuang and other popular stars very well. But if you ask her what books she has read, she will look at you blankly. How did she do? Certainly not ideal. Children who lack reading will not only have poor performance in Chinese, but also in subjects such as mathematics. Colleagues told me that in their home, the TV is just a display because every member of their family has their own favorite book to read. I’ve finished reading all the books, so how can I still have time to watch TV? So you see, if a child has good reading habits and loves to read, then TV is actually not attractive to him at all. And if your child falls in love with reading, then you don’t have to worry about his learning at all. Suhomlinsky, a famous Soviet education expert, once said: \”A child who does not read is a potentially poor student in learning.\” Therefore, in order to prevent children from being addicted to vulgar TV plots, we should quickly train them now improve your reading habits! No matter how old the child is, this matter is urgent. Of course, as a parent, you have to lead by example, starting with putting down the remote control and cell phone yourself. Tip Two: Get Parents Involved Of course, watching TV is not harmful to all but beneficial. Just for children who are still growing, in order to reduce the damage to the eyes caused by TV blue light and the harmful effects of unhealthy plotsIt’s better to watch as little as possible about the poisoning of children’s souls. However, if a child really, really wants to watch TV, how can we, as parents, get involved in order to effectively reduce the harm that TV does to our children? First, set a time to watch it with your child. Every summer vacation, classics such as \”Journey to the West\” and \”Dream of Red Mansions\” will be played over and over again. For these literary masterpieces that do not need to be bypassed in children\’s growth, parents can read and discuss them with their children. If your children don\’t like to watch these, it\’s not a bad idea to find a popular actress to entertain their eyes. Firstly, they will not deviate from their classmates, and secondly, they can enhance the parent-child relationship. Of course, the premise is that the time must be specified. My best friend’s child is in fourth grade this year. Every time I watch TV, I can consciously abide by the time set by my mother, and it will never exceed half an hour. I\’m amazed how a child can have such high self-control. My best friend said that they have been doing this since the baby was very young, so over time, the child has developed good habits without even realizing it. Secondly, we must check for our children and choose high-quality TV programs for them. TV series such as Ultraman and Pigman, which involve fighting and killing without much plot, are completely passable. Watching more educational and educational programs can promote children\’s growth to a certain extent. For example, the Batamu nursery rhymes, which I personally like very much, are available in Chinese, English, and Chinese-English combined versions, which are very suitable for babies. Another example is programs such as \”Chinese Poetry Conference\” and \”The Reader\” that have been very popular in the past. They are not only suitable for adults, but also suitable for children. Tip 3: Change the layout of the living room. Before getting married, I hurriedly decorated my home. After I had a child, I thought of a better living room layout with the benefit of hindsight. I really, really regret not adding a row of bookshelves to my living room. Today\’s decoration styles mostly have sofas facing the TV wall. Just lie down on the sofa, turn on the TV, and enjoy entertainment in the most comfortable way. As a parent, after a tiring day outside, it\’s so nice to have such a moment of leisure and relaxation. But everyone knows that children will also learn from their parents. Just throw away their schoolbags and lie down on the sofa. What else can they read? Therefore, it is strongly recommended that parents who have not yet decorated or are preparing to decorate and are willing to redecorate for their children should never place the TV opposite the sofa. Personally, I think you should place the sofa perpendicular to the wall and put a bookshelf opposite the sofa. The coffee table is placed between the bookshelf and the sofa, and the TV wall is on the other side. In this way, when sitting on the sofa, you can have one more choice instead of just picking up the remote control to watch TV. If parents give more guidance and read more books at home, it will be too easy to keep their children away from the TV with such a living room layout. Of course, if you want to keep your children away from TV, there is actually the simplest and crudest solution, and that is – not staying at home. If it is during school, you can tell your child: \”Hurry up and finish your homework, and then your parents will take you out to play.\” After your child finishes his homework, you can take him to the park, buy groceries, or Take him roller skating, dancing, etc. in the community.Remember, you must keep your promises to your children. If it is winter and summer vacations, it will be easier. While your children have plenty of time, you can also take your annual leave, take your leave, and take your children to travel! Looking at the great rivers and mountains of the motherland can not only give our children a lot of insights, but also improve our mood. Why not do it.
