For parents, they all hope that their children can learn more words, so that when they take them out, others will praise how talented their children are. In fact, little do we know that early literacy in children can also have some harm. So, what are the harms of early literacy in children?
Children's imagination is very rich. If children are taught to recognize words too early, they will also be given a book. If they can read, their first concern will be what words are in the book. On the contrary, illiterate children may be attracted by written pictures and various images will appear in their minds, which will limit their imagination.
When children are young, try to let them play more, especially in early childhood. During this period, images are still the main focus. For children, words are just abstract things and they may not even know what these words mean. If we insist on letting children accept these abstract things in advance, we will also lose the joy of their childhood.
When cultivating children, it still depends on how parents guide their children and what kind of mentality they use to start learning to recognize characters. Integrating education with entertainment is very important, as it not only helps children learn how to recognize characters, but also allows them to enjoy the fun and make them love learning more.
