The slogan of educational concept in Japanese kindergartens

Needless to say, parents attach importance to their children's education.

Parents have been worried since their children went to kindergarten, hoping that their children can get high-quality educational resources and grow up healthily and happily.

However, influenced by the cultural background and traditions of different countries, educational ideas will also show different characteristics, and some advantages are really worth learning and thinking about.

For example, Japanese kindergarten education is very hard-core, but parents in China call it "impossible". What is the difference?

1, "sanitary" and "unhealthy"

As we all know, children's immunity is low, and they are easily infected by bacteria and viruses. Therefore, parents in China attach great importance to children's hygiene.

In addition to repeatedly emphasizing washing hands before and after meals, some parents will regularly disinfect their children's toys with alcohol, which is not bad. Some parents even go too far and don't even let their children sit on the ground.

Children love to play very much, and their cognition is developed through games and exploration.

But now most parents advocate that girls play with dolls quietly and boys play with cars quietly, as long as they are not naughty.

However, in kindergartens in Japan, both boys and girls need to play with mud and sand, and the school will also provide various toys, such as buckets, shovels and small molds. And children will naturally let themselves go.

In our opinion, this is definitely very unsanitary, but in fact, children in Japanese kindergartens always wash their hands after playing these games.

2. "Individualization" and "collectivization"

Although most kindergartens now have garden clothes, there are still many parents who like to dress their children uniquely and want to show their personality.

On the contrary, in Japan, kindergartens require children to wear uniform uniforms and carry the same schoolbags, in order to make children have a sense of collective and always understand that they are part of the collective.

At the same time, Japanese kindergartens will organize a large number of activities to further cultivate children's collective concept and let them keep it in mind.

3. About "Eat and Wear Warm"

In China, it is necessary to eat and wear warm clothes, especially for children.

I'm afraid they don't have enough to eat, so that their parents chase after them to feed; I am afraid that my child will catch cold, so when the weather changes, parents are very nervous and want to put on cotton-padded clothes for their children.

However, in Japanese kindergartens, children are advised to eat only seven points full, which is more conducive to digestion and can reduce the burden on the stomach; Dressing also advocates seven points to keep warm. It is not uncommon for children to play games outdoors in autumn wearing only a single coat.

This makes many parents in China unable to understand. Aren't they afraid that their children will get sick with cold?

In fact, the educational philosophy of Japanese kindergartens is to improve children's immunity through "self-healing from minor illnesses" and let the body gain experience in "actual combat".

4. Do your own thing.

In China, it is very common for parents to pick up their children from kindergartens with their schoolbags on their backs.

However, in kindergartens in Japan, children are required to carry their own schoolbags. In addition to the schoolbags for books, they also have backpacks for other supplies, all of which are brought by themselves.

However, we still have to say a few words for our parents in China. It's not that we don't want our children to go to school independently, but it's impossible in reality! Traffickers are rampant and traffic is crowded on the road. I really can't rest assured.

In addition, some older children have to work as staff in the kindergarten canteen to provide dining services for their younger brothers and sisters.

Objectively speaking, this really helps to cultivate children's independent ability.

5. There is no limit to the meal time.

In kindergartens in China, there is a strict timetable from studying, playing games to taking a nap.

Many kindergartens will set a meal time for children, which makes some children have to eat in a hurry or put down chopsticks before they are full.

In Japanese kindergartens, children's eating time is relatively casual, and chewing slowly is more helpful for digestion.

In a word, different educational ideas lead to great differences in many aspects between Chinese and Japanese kindergartens.

This is caused by national conditions and traditional culture. Of course, we can't copy it, but some aspects are really worth learning from. Let's make continuous progress, right?

In addition, right and wrong should vary from person to person, and what is suitable for children is the best.
