The importance of play in a child's development.

There are many important things, which can make children interested in learning content, and can also make children more relaxed when learning, and secondly, it can also make children know how to think, know how to combine learning and entertainment, so that children can lay a good foundation.

The first can improve the interest in learning, the second can improve the learning effect, the third can improve the learning ability, the fourth can cultivate children's good qualities, and the fifth can cultivate children's ability to think independently.

The role of play in early childhood education.

Play is a combination of freedom, fun, imagination and creativity, and is a favorite activity for young children. Educator Chen Heqin said: "Play is a child's life.

Young children are active by nature and should not remain in one posture for a long time, otherwise they will feel tired and bored. The game allows children to take the initiative to master the teaching routine in a pleasant atmosphere, be willing to interact with others, learn to help each other and cooperate with each other, so that children's moral, intellectual, physical and aesthetic aspects can be comprehensively developed in the game.

The role of play in children's developmentPlay is a happy and autonomous practical activity that meets the needs of children's physical and mental development. It is a combination of education and entertainment, and it is a favorite activity for children. The reason why children are particularly fond of games is mainly determined by the characteristics of children's physical and mental development.

In the teaching of young children, games with rich content and various forms occupy an important position. The "Kindergarten Work Regulations" has clearly pointed out that kindergartens "take play as the basic activity. "Play is an important form of holistic education for young children.

Play is not only the need for children's physical and psychological development, but also the requirement for children's all-round physical, intellectual, moral and aesthetic development. There are actions, plots, toys and game materials in the game, which are in line with the characteristics of children's cognition, can arouse children's interest and attention, stimulate children's positive perception, observation, attention, memory, thinking, imagination, etc., and promote children's development in a relaxed and happy atmosphere. It can be seen that children's love of play is not only a reflection of physical and mental characteristics, but also a need for physical and mental development.

The significance of play for children's development:

1. Play promotes children's physical development. Early childhood is the embryonic period of a person's life, the growth and development is very rapid and vigorous, and the development is full of vitality and possible activities when playing.

2. Play promotes children's cognitive development. There are stages of human development, and preschool is an important period for children's cognitive development, and games are of great significance to Yo Eru's cognitive development.

3. Play is an indispensable nutritional element in the process of children's physical and mental health growth. It not only has an entertaining effect, but also affects the development of children's language, cognition, emotion, personality, etc.

4. Play promotes children's sensory development. Perceptual perception is the beginning of children's cognitive activities, and it is the channel for children to understand external things, increase knowledge, and develop intelligence. All kinds of games, such as manipulative games, provide a lot of opportunities for young children to practice their senses.

5. Play promotes children's social development. Social development, also known as children's socialization, is one of the important contents of children's psychological development, and it is the process of children from natural persons to gradually mastering social moral behavior norms and social behavior skills, and growing into a social person.

The Nature of Games: Different game theories have made their own classic interpretations of the nature of games. However, due to the complexity of the game itself, the diversity of people's understanding angles and cultural backgrounds, it is difficult or even impossible to give a feasible and fair definition of the game, but we can use some interrelated factors to explain the characteristics of the game.

To sum up, games have five basic characteristics: spontaneity, autonomy, illusoryness, experience, and non-utilitarianism.

The importance of play for kindergarten children:1. Games can play a good role in the regulation and control of children's emotions. For example, when several children are playing with the same toy, the child needs to wait for his turn, which is a kind of self-regulation.

When children feel depressed and in a bad mood, they need to have a kind of self-control, rather than venting this bad emotion immediately.

2. An important role of the game is that the game can exercise the child's gross and fine movements, so as to promote the development of the child's muscles. For example, actions such as drawing with a pen and buttoning small buttons are mainly composed of fine movements.

Children's running and jumping games and games of passing objects are the training of children's physical movements.

3. Children can learn to solve a variety of problems in the process of playing. When they encounter obstacles in the process of playing, they will take the initiative to think about how to solve them. For example, how to build blocks higher and build more complex shapes; When multiple children play group games together, they will also establish some rules in order to play fairly, and they will also constantly think of new ways to keep the game going without interrupting it in the middle of the game.

All these will lay a good foundation for thinking about problems and finding solutions in adulthood.

Play plays an important role in children's development, which can cultivate children's imagination, creativity, language expression and initiative, as well as peer relationships and problem-solving skills. Play is a way for children to express their emotions, and it has important value for children's emotional satisfaction and stability. Play is in line with the law of children's physical and mental development, is a relatively easy way for children to accept learning, and plays a very important role in promoting children's knowledge accumulation, intellectual development, language development, etc.

Play activities are the basic activities of children in the kindergarten, and they are also children's favorite activities, which can help teachers understand the basic development of children, and design scientific and reasonable activities to better promote children's development. As a special activity, play provides children with space for free imagination, which is conducive to the development of children's creativity.

Play develops children's social skills.

Nowadays, only children play games alone at home, and when they go to kindergarten to play with their peers, they must first understand humility, cooperation, sharing, and solving problems in the process of playing and conflicts between peers. This contradiction comes from the child's family environment, children's imagination, creativity and individual differences, then play can help children get rid of the tendency of self-centeredness and develop towards social cooperation.

Play is beneficial to improve children's thinking development ability.

Young children must choose items related to the game during the game. In this way, these objects are consolidated in the child's experience, which in turn provides the materials and tools for the child's thinking; The game enables children to create many different situations, and various kinds of problems will arise in various situations, which creates opportunities for children to solve problems and improves children's problem-solving ability.

Chen Heqin's Game Teaching Method:Play as a life, appropriate games, children like to play in groups, be companions with animals, have the best to encourage it, parents as partners in games, and the educational nature of games. In short, children should be given ample opportunities to play flawlessly, so that they can enjoy the perfect play life.

Chen Heqin believes that children's various knowledge and abilities can be acquired by children through games, so there are problems that need to be paid attention to in promoting the implementation of gamification in the blind course of the classroom: educators need to prepare appropriate, rich and supportive game materials and games.

Educational nature of the game

From the educational aspect of games, the most important point is that using games can help children develop good habits.

Mr. Chen Heqin also gave an example: when a child does not want to go back to sleep at night, parents can use the form of games, such as telling him "let's ride back to the room to sleep" and do horseback riding movements, and the child may immediately follow your example and go back. Because, too much speech can irritate young children, while simple play will attract attention and have an effect.

Sometimes they don't want to pay attention to verbal instructions to do things, but when you use the form of play, they will respond immediately, and not only that, but play may be the best way to communicate with some more introverted children. Sometimes, play can also open a window to a child's mind.
