How can parents raise honest children?

Discuss the meaning of honesty: Discuss honesty with your child. Try to use words and concepts that he can understand, and ask him to think about what honesty represents, that is, trust and interpersonal relationships.

Be a role model of honesty: Children admire their parents and want to be like them, so own up to your words and actions and let your children see that you admit your mistakes and are able to correct them.

Teach without blaming: Inspire and encourage your child to be honest. Harsh punishment and scolding him for being a liar may make you feel good temporarily, but it will not change his behavior.

How do parents educate their children?

Habits determine the fate of children. Nothing is more important than the formation of habits. If parents do not pay attention to cultivating good habits for their children, they are undoubtedly ruining their children's bright future.

Formative education is a lifelong education. Intellectual education is a good habit of thinking, moral education is a small behavioral habit, and quality education is more reflected in people's small behaviors.

A large number of facts have proved that habit is a tenacious force that can dominate a person's life. Everything for children starts with the cultivation of habits.

Habit is a big problem and a great wisdom. The formation of good habits is not a one-day job. The main principles are: low starting point, strict requirements, small steps, fast pace, more activities, seeking changes, quick feedback, and frequent correction.

The key to habit formation lies in the first three days, and the key to success lies in one month. Parents should fully respect their children's rights and let them play a leading role in habit formation.

Education is like sailing on the sea. It must follow the correct route. Otherwise, the bigger the ship, the greater the risk of it running aground and sinking.

The quality of a person determines the direction of his development. One of the core tasks of family education is to cultivate children into real people. However, the cultivation of personality is usually difficult to implement in specific operations.

However, researchers have found that habits and personality complement each other. Habits affect personality, and personality affects habits. Characters such as integrity, honesty, responsibility, love, cooperation, and efficiency can all be forged through habit cultivation.

Aesthetic education begins with life

Finally, of course, we have to mention the aesthetic teaching in Montessori education. A few years ago, we spent a whole semester working with the Early Childhood Education Research Institute of National Chengchi University on a project. When the project was finally concluded, their professor came to our school for feedback and discussion. Of course, he couldn't help but praise our school, saying that we are a popular school, and that the quality of our teaching team, parents, and students is quite high. It is the school with the most consistent level and the most ideals among the ten cooperative kindergartens they evaluated. However, because he didn't understand Montessori very well, he finally put forward a personal opinion, which made the teachers present a little impatient, because he said that he felt that the Montessori teaching method did not teach children aesthetics.

One of our teachers told the professor excitedly that she had many misunderstandings about Montessori before she came into contact with it. It was not until she made up her mind to enter Montessori teaching that she could better understand how Montessori influenced children in a subtle way after ten years. I couldn't help but calmly answer the professor: I don't know how the professor defines aesthetic education? Is it determined by the quality of the painting? Or is it the sensitivity to beauty in life?

I remember seeing a parent feedback form for the regular teaching observation not long ago. It mentioned that I saw a child come to me like a little host and ask me what I want to drink. Then he skillfully made tea, poured water, put tea bags in, drained the tea bags, dealt with the aftermath, and then brought it to me for tea. It was really touching!

Another thing that must not be forgotten is the way adults give feedback to children's works. Don't praise too much, but be specific. What children like to hear is you telling them what you really saw and where you resonate with them. If you just say perfunctorily, "Wow! It's so beautiful!", then it's better to tell them that mom is busy now, and can you lend it to me after I finish washing the dishes? Tell the child specifically, "Well! I really like your color matching and detail," or "Wow! I see that your lines are so smooth!" If it is not a sincere affirmation, it is better not to say it.

I hate it when adults embellish children's works. What I don't like even more is when a child asks me how to draw a duck. I draw a duck for him to see and then ask him to copy it. I would rather show him a picture of a duck or read a picture book about ducks, let him experience it himself and then draw it. This way I won't erase his creativity and observation skills. Even if I don't expect him to become a painter in the future, I can at least give him the motivation and sense of accomplishment to paint for the rest of his life.

In a nutshell, aesthetic education is indeed not easy to teach, because it cannot be taught. As parents, we should grasp how to step back and advance, and implement it in our daily life and environment.
