Curiosity, who all share. Infants and young children (infant food)'s curiosity manifested itself very early on. As early as in the neonatal period, the child will be on the bright, fresh colors of objects curiously watching. 5 ~ 6 months, he will be curious to hear the voice to find a sound source. Kids run will say, he would be unable to bear the loneliness of the room, with a strong curiosity to go outdoors to play, to "adventure for adventures." "The sky will rain," "the sun came out again fall day to go," "Little Duck and the chickens can not swim to swim," and so on, all this makes children feel that everything will be wonderful, find it interesting. He will put forward all kinds of weird curiosity question. In the rainy days he would ask, "Why Aunt umbrella now?" "Why grandpa a long beard and her mother (my mother food) is not long beard?" "Why spend Mujixiadan and large rooster does not lay eggs," and so varied, painfully answer.

    A greater number of children a strong sense of curiosity also led him to hands-on experiments, and even as a small destructive elements. He would often tired of throwing toys everywhere, Fanxiangdaogui way home to find fresh Wanyi Er. Seen talking on the TV screen will sing the blue wizard, he would be taking a closer look around the television, hand-flapping TV, screaming and calling out to those small animals to play with him. See the mother to be able to germinate the seeds scattered in the ground, he will put in the ground Zizhong watermelon every day to see if there dug up germination, see the hairdresser to the customer barber, he returned home a dog will pick up the scissors to the hair , doll cut head. All these acts are a result of the child's curiosity caused.

    The right to treat a child's curiosity, including the right to treat a child raised questions and the right to treat a child out of curiosity which led to acts of sabotage two aspects.

    1. The right to treat a child's question

    As the child's curiosity psychology, narrow range of knowledge, life experiences simple, he often mentioned a number of naive, one might even be convulsed with laughter problems. What do you think for a simple, have answered the question, he will be inquisitive, and asked again and again, patiently, people overwhelmed. Child and ask questions is a good thing, but to meet the child's curiosity, so that the child be given a satisfactory answer he got was tough. This requires us to pay attention to the art of handling the child's questions.

    (1) We want to encourage children to ask questions, inspire a child to ask questions, not satire, ridicule. A child and ask questions that he curious, intellectual curiosity, strong, and we would like him praise and encouragement, and timely, correct, popular way to answer. If parents neglect their children's questions on children left unattended, even a child too tired, it will lead to a child can not or is unwilling to ask another question, right around everything to lose with curiosity and enthusiasm. Gorky once said: "The children's problems, if said wait, it will grow up to understand. This is equivalent to discourage children (baby food) and thirst for knowledge." So, parents, their children's questions should be answered. For some kids actually did not understand the problem, can not give the child to "When you grow up, read more books will understand" This kind of answer should be to encourage children to further study of knowledge, their own and find out.

(2) to answer children's questions should be instructive. For the directional issues (eg, What is that? What is this?) Can be directly respond to the children, but there are logical relations as well as other more complex issues, parents should pay attention to guiding the child to think, let the children use their existing knowledge experience, through observation and conclusion to find out. There is such an example: a child watching the sky full moon asked: "Daddy, the moon will always be forever so round, so light it?" The father did not directly answer, but said: "let's look at a few days, you will find this secret, knowing the answer. "A few days later, in a hazy moonlight night, Dad take the kids out to see the moon. Children saw the curved moon said: "Daddy, turn the moon is not good, or circle the moon Well, you said the moon could get round it?" The father (Daddy food) has not answered my question directly, but rather promised to take him out for some time to look at. Later he saw the round moon, he was pleased cried: "It's interesting, the moon will be from the circle into a bend of the, and from the bent into a circle." Answered the father's approach is worthy of recognition and advocated. It makes the child's curiosity satisfied, letting children think through their own observations to understand the "month with Yinqing moon" phenomenon.

(3) should also note that: If the issues raised by parents of a child does not know the answer, the parents not to "Budongzhuangdong" lip service to coax a child. Children should be told truthfully: "I do not know the answer to this question, and so I checked the book or asked someone else will tell you." After that, parents should keep its promise to tell the child the correct answer as soon as possible.

    2. The right to treat a child because of disruptive behavior caused by curiosity

    In addition to the strong performance of the child's curiosity to ask questions, he also showed a good move. Children's curiosity because of the psychological and ignorant, its restless tendencies often lead to some destructive acts. In this regard, parents should correctly handle can not be accused of beatings and punishment of children, but rather patiently guiding, and educating their children. For example, the demolition of a bad kids toys, parents should not be cursed, or do not promise to buy him a toy, but rather simply to the child about the fundamentals of the structure of toys and installation method, and then repaired with the children put toys to the child describes the proper use of toys so that children learn to use toys, treasure toy
