How much impact do these details of life have on children in kindergarten?

On March 31st, I was fortunate enough to participate in the life teacher experience activity organized by my child’s kindergarten. On this day, I put on my teacher\’s uniform and apron and stayed in the kindergarten for a full 10 hours. To be honest, I used to be quite careless about my children going to kindergarten. I felt that my children enjoyed kindergarten every day and there were no problems, so I didn’t communicate much with teachers and other parents. Yesterday’s day-to-day experience was quite educational, so I couldn’t help but sit down and write about the inspiration I received as a parent. Maybe some attentive parents have already recognized these problems and have done a good job, but I still want to Write it out as a reminder to yourself and other parents who haven’t noticed. Eating Habits The first thing I want to talk about is the issue of eating, because I think eating issues can reflect many of the children’s living habits behind them. I think children will develop their learning and social skills sooner or later, but eating habits will stay with them throughout their lives, and they still need to lay a solid foundation. Kindergarten has three meals a day and two o\’clock. I found that there are always a few children who are always slow to eat. Some people say that eating speed is related to age, but I don’t agree. Some children are also young, but they eat very quickly. They can definitely keep up with the level of the large army. They are even the fastest eaters. I think they have good eating habits since they were young. Don’t underestimate this. During the nine hours in kindergarten, children have to eat three meals, one yogurt, and one fruit. They have to wash their hands before meals and rinse their mouths after meals. It takes more than two hours in total. Eat them first. Children can read books, play, rinse their mouths, put on coats, and wait in line for outdoor activities calmly. Children who eat slowly do not have this transition time. They have their utensils taken away in a hurry and go directly to the next stage of the task. They always feel rushed. And I think the more serious impact is that children will be mentally stressed. For children who eat slowly, there may only be one or two people at each table in the end, and the teacher will keep watching, urging, and feeding them. If they are urged, the teacher\’s attitude and tone may not be good. Think about it, don\’t we do the same at home? Well, sometimes when you are in a hurry to eat, you will rush to eat. When facing the teacher, the children will definitely feel pressure, and they are afraid that it will turn into negative emotions about going to kindergarten. Furthermore, I have seen that children who eat quickly eat more, and children who eat slowly eat less. The nutritional supply of children is also affected. We had meatloaf for dinner last night. The little ones who like to eat smelled it during the playground activities and were very happy when eating. Children who eat a lot can ask the teacher several times, while children who eat less only eat one or two. ,Differs greatly. There is another phenomenon. Some children who eat slowly are also cautious when playing on the single-plank bridge or jumping in circles on the playground. They are not as agile and quick as other children. Is there a certain relationship between eating ability and athletic ability? Because my observation time is limited, I don’t know if this view is one-sided. As a parent, what I suggest is that you should first rule out physical reasons, why you don’t like to eat, whether you have a poor appetite, and whether there are any health problems. I found that there was a child in the class who had a red face all the time, and two other children had a slit in their eyes while sleeping.Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it has a certain relationship with the spleen and stomach, and it is recommended that parents investigate the cause early. Also, consider whether he does not exercise enough in normal times, so he eats less and has a much smaller appetite than other children. In this case, he needs to exercise more. The second thing is to send the child to the kindergarten on time. Other children have done morning exercises, washed their hands, brought the food themselves and started to eat it with relish. Some children have just entered the kindergarten and have to take off their clothes, fold their clothes and wash their hands. Children are prone to slow movements and will naturally be delayed. Some time; or if you don’t come to the park for a long time, you have to get used to it again every time you come back after being away from the park for a long time. Since we send our children to kindergarten to live a collective life, I think this collective discipline still needs to be exercised. Thirdly, cultivate good eating habits at home, eat less snacks, and don’t keep thinking about your children, thinking that if you don’t eat, you can still eat snacks; you must respect your children’s dietary needs, do not force-feed them, and eat as much as you can, that’s okay. Increase the amount of food by increasing the amount of exercise, rather than force-feeding; do not force-feed, so that the child has no resistance to eating and no mental burden. To be honest, parents may be anxious if they don’t have enough food to eat, but don’t express this kind of evaluation and anxiety in front of their children, otherwise it will be easy to infect their children with such negative emotions. In addition, excessive attention is also a negative emotion. Emotional contagion. Let children regard eating as a simple, easy, and normal thing, rather than a task to tackle. The second issue I want to talk about is the issue of dressing. The highest temperature yesterday was 17 degrees, and there was always sunshine during outdoor activities. However, most children, including ours, wore two layers inside and light down jackets outside. The teachers and I only wore one layer of autumn clothes on top, and the other layer was very thin. Garden clothes, not cold at all. Children have stronger firepower and are more active than adults, so they are easily hotter than adults. They are sweating when they move under the sun. The teacher can only ask everyone to unzip the clothes and have to wear them because of the parents. unwilling. In the afternoon, I took off my child\’s down jacket and wore an autumn coat and sweater for activities on the playground. I was also sweating lightly. I returned to the classroom covered in sweat. Although the teacher asked me to take a break to sweat before taking off my clothes, the sweat would definitely not fall off immediately. And since the windows were still open in the room (without opening the windows, there would be no ventilation), it was easy to catch a cold. So I think we should be bolder and give our children less coats and less coats. Think about what mom and dad are wearing today (don’t think about the clothes of the elderly, because the elderly have low skin sensitivity and most of them are afraid of the cold and wear thick clothes). Is it so hot that we want to take off our coats after walking for a while on our way to and from get off work? Think about what our ancestors said: \”If you want a child to be safe, he must be hungry and cold\”! Also be careful not to dress your children in clothes or shoes that are too complicated, because they have to undress and put on their own clothes for naps. If the clothes are too complicated, it will be too slow for the children to put them on and take off by themselves. Although the teacher will help, after all If you have too many children, you won’t be able to take care of them. It’s okay if the weather is warm, but if it’s cold for a long time and you can’t wear them, you’ll easily catch a cold. It is also not conducive to children\’s ability to take care of themselves. If children cannot wear clothes and shoes that are too complicated, they will easily give up and just wait.The teacher comes to wear it. Communicate with Teachers The third issue is communication between parents and teachers. If the child reports a problem in the kindergarten, or the teacher reports the child has a problem, there must be more communication, otherwise misunderstandings may easily occur. For example, when it comes to taking photos, parents sometimes want to see photos of their children in the kindergarten. If I hadn\’t come to experience this, I wouldn\’t have known that teachers would have no time to look at their phones. Face-to-face communication is more effective than WeChat communication. The time can be chosen when picking up the children after school, or you can make an appointment with the teacher. If it\’s a system problem in the kindergarten that the teacher can\’t solve, I think we still have to communicate with the kindergarten. That’s all I can think of for the time being. It’s my personal opinion. Please correct me if there is any inappropriateness.
