一些家长常常根据自己的愿望,让孩子从两三岁就开始学习音乐、绘画、舞蹈等,旨在培养孩子的艺术才能,一些幼儿园教师也在盲目提高艺术教育的要求,强调单纯的高、难、多的技巧训练。实践证明,这样做,并没有收到好的效果。究其原因,就在于这些家长和教师并不真正了解幼儿艺术教育的启蒙性、基础性的特点。幼儿心理发展尚未成熟,难以接受复杂的知识结构;幼儿生理发展也不成熟,神经、骨骼、肌肉等都没有发育完善,不可能掌握高难度的技巧动作。这就决定了幼儿艺术教育只能是传授初步的、简单的知识和技能。因此,幼儿艺术教育具有启蒙性和基础性两大特点。 Some parents often let their children learn music, painting, dancing and so on from the age of two or three according to their own wishes, so as to cultivate children’s artistic skills. Some kindergarten teachers are also blindly raising the demand for arts education and emphasizing the simple high and difficult , More skills training. Practice has proved that doing so has not received good results. The reason is that these parents and teachers do not really understand the enlightenment of children’s art education, the basic characteristics. Young children’s mental development is not yet mature, it is difficult to accept complex knowledge structure; young children’s physiological development is immature, nerves, bones, muscles, etc. are not well developed, impossible to master the difficult skills movements. This determines the art education of young children can only be taught initial, simple knowledge and skills. Therefore, children’s art education has two major characteristics of enlightenment and basic.
