Let children experience what the new labor education is

Today, labor class has officially become an independent course in primary and secondary schools. As an important means of cultivating moral character and cultivating people, labor education has become more and more important. But in real life, there are still some parents who do not pay enough attention to labor education and do not really care about whether their children love labor, master life skills, and cultivate their sentiments in the labor process. Some parents are accustomed to starting from an adult perspective and often despise their children for not doing well enough and dampen their children\’s enthusiasm for work. I think of a scene I experienced when I was a child: when I see adults planting rice seedlings, I always want to try it, firstly to satisfy my curiosity, and secondly to prove that \”I can do it too.\” So, I followed the example of adults and pulled out and transplanted seedlings in a decent manner. Unexpectedly, I was disgusted by adults: \”You are too slow\”, \”You inserted it crookedly\”, \”You are wasting the seedlings like this\”… My enthusiasm for work seemed to have been poured with cold water. Thinking about this, I still feel uncomfortable. Labor is not a simple physical activity, but a learning activity that exercises the mind and improves problem-solving abilities. In a sense, labor can activate children\’s lives. Children experience life and hone their will through conscious labor, and can also stimulate and release their inner potential. If adults interfere too much in this process, the child\’s labor process will become fragmented, and there will be a lack of independent and complete experience and thinking in the true sense. Without real experience, it is difficult for education in the true sense to take place. Anti-drowning safety education for primary school students, etc., the 100-lesson audio encyclopedia of all-round child safety and real labor experience can also help children improve their cognitive level and problem-solving abilities. Children may encounter things during work that are beyond their knowledge and are helpless, or they may be deceived by past experiences. For example, if the last time a grass fire broke out, it was put out with water, but this time when oil caught fire while cooking, the child may still want to use water to put out the fire! This can guide children to understand the truth: things in the world are not static, and specific problems must be analyzed in detail. The experience in this labor process will definitely impress the child, and may also help him become an active explorer of life knowledge. This is much better than parents directly providing ready-made knowledge or even arranging substitute education. Encountering problems is an opportunity for children to grow. Parents should not rush to help their children solve problems, but should inspire their children to reflect in time, or ask others for advice or consult relevant information to cultivate their children\’s ability to solve problems on their own. Children can also be encouraged to deny, develop or reconstruct their original thinking during the labor process, optimize and innovate the labor process, and finally solve problems independently, thus continuously enriching their knowledge, skills and experience. All in all, parents need to use an open and tolerant attitude to protect their children\’s curiosity and desire to explore, let their children experience life and challenge themselves through labor, and let their children actively integrate into life, participate in labor truly and naturally, discover and explore knowledge, The fun of solving problems and experiencing the value and significance of labor can truly enable labor education to empower children\’s growth.
