How to correct a child's sitting posture

Cultivate children's good sitting posture when studying.

At the beginning of children's learning, or in the first grade, our parents should start from cultivating good habits and cultivate them bit by bit. Next, I will talk about the sitting posture of children when they write or read books.

Generally speaking, when children are studying, we should ask them to sit up straight and relax naturally. This is a study habit that our parents or teachers often emphasize. This habit is very important because the child's bones are growing. If he can't sit upright, the gravity of his body will bend his spine. If his spine bends when he studies, it will affect the blood circulation of his body, and then affect the supply of glucose to his brain. In addition, if he doesn't have a good sitting posture, he is also prone to fatigue. Let me talk about some ways to cultivate children's correct sitting posture, I hope everyone can understand.

When a child begins to learn, our parents or teachers will correct his sitting posture or tell him how to sit. Our children can listen and straighten up according to the requirements of parents or teachers. But imagine that humans started as reptiles and later evolved to walk upright. But walking upright is not as comfortable as crawling, and children will be more comfortable lying on the table than sitting upright. Then, when you start training your child to sit, the child will have to pay some pain. In this case, on the one hand, we know that the posture that children learn is very important and they should sit well. At the same time, we should also see such a natural attribute of human beings, that is, he will be casual, which is related to the early living conditions of human beings. In this case, how can we teach children to have a correct posture and a natural posture when learning? There are many methods, and I want to introduce one here. Teachers and parents must know that in the process of cultivating children's good behavior habits, there is a principle that we can't let them suffer. You must remember it. How to understand this principle? For example, you told him today that he must sit up straight, his shoulders should be flat and his eyes should look straight ahead. When you tell him, he can really do it at once, but after a while, when his attention shifts, his body habitually bends down. Then at this time, as a teacher or parent who understands psychology, you should understand a truth: the formation of children's good habits has to be repeated many times. However, some teachers or parents don't know the meaning of this repetition. He thinks that if he tells his children once or twice, he should remember. If he can't remember, the teacher or parents will be unhappy immediately, and then they will scold the child, or abuse the child who can't sit straight or stagger with some insulting language, which will make the child very painful. Some teachers or parents may slap in the face when they are impatient. If so, children will suffer because of forming this habit. There are also teachers or parents who don't beat their children, but often nag them: "Sit still and see what you are sitting like, and learn to look like you are learning." If you say this endlessly every day, it will also make children suffer. As we all know, in children's behavior types, visual children account for 29%, auditory children account for 34%, and kinesthetic children account for 37%. In other words, there are many kinesthetic children, and they may not do well in developing the correct sitting posture. At this time, because he is kinesthetic, we tell him a lot, which may not be acceptable to him. If you use words with a hearing child to urge him to sit up straight, he may be willing to listen. When you are faced with a kinesthetic child, if you repeatedly say "Don't sit still, don't sit still, stand still and say you many times", the child will be upset. In this case, our parents or teachers have to change a method: it is best to walk up to him, pat him on the back, give him a hint, and then he sits up straight. This is a kinesthetic child. Because patting is an action and the child is a kinesthetic learner, he likes to be patted. We found that we used language to emphasize that he sat up straight and stood up straight, which is one of many methods (suitable for listening learners). We can also use another way, the teacher can write a line on the blackboard: "Please sit up straight" (in line with visual learners). Parents can write a card at home and put it on their children's desk. In this way, we emphasize from three aspects: vision, kinesthesia and hearing that these three methods should treat different children differently: if the child is auditory, tell him: You see that you are sitting well in this class, and the teacher hopes that you can sit up straight in the next class; If the child has vision, you may write a line on the blackboard to work for him. Kinesthesia, as I said just now, you have to go all the way behind him and pat him, so that he knows to sit up straight and don't talk. Take a pat this morning to make the child sit up straight, take a pat this afternoon to make the child sit up straight, and take a pat tomorrow. After a long time, children will develop the habit of sitting up straight. In this way, in the whole process of cultivating children to form a good habit of sitting up straight, he didn't get pain, didn't dislike teachers, didn't dislike parents, and developed habits. This is the scientific principle of the connection between good habits and happiness. In cultivating children to form good habits, don't force children, beat and scold them and make them angry. Because, if children often suffer when they form good habits, this habit is not easy to form, especially our only child.
