Play with mother is key to children‘s success (Mother who did badly at school can still boost their young children‘s academic performance with stimulating activities at home). Mother‘s (rather than father‘s) own educational achievements have long been thought to be the key to children‘s progress at school. But government-funded rearch suggests that mothers can compensate for their lack of exam success if they offer their under-fives activities linked to literacy and numeracy.
Rearchers from Oxford, Cardiff and London universities, who measured the attainments of
65316426.doc 2
大学活动创意点子more than 2,000 children at the ages of three and five, found that their mothers‘education is important in accounting for differences between children. But what the mother did with the child was even more important. Tho who talked frequently to their children, who played games with numbers and letters, read to them, took them to the library and taught them songs and nurry rhymes had a
significant effect on their attainment both at the ages of three and five. Professor Pam Sammons of London University‘s Institute of Education, said, ―Children‘s progress is not completely determined by social disadvantages. What parents do with children is critically important. Parents who have no educational qualifications can still do many things to help their children. We need to encourage parents, particularly younger ones, to play with children and to talk to them. Sammons said the findings emphasized the importance of policies for supporting families of under-threes, for example, the government‘s Sure Start program. MPs on the Select Committee for Education are investigating early years education. Ministers have provided a nurry, playgroup or school place for every four-year-old, but critics say that too many children are now in school reception class, which are not equipped for them. There are more staff workers for each child in nurries than in reception class. The rearchers, comparing children‘s achievements in math and literacy, found that playgroups
and private day nurries tended to do much less well than nurry schools, which combined education, day care and reception class.
This rearch is consistent with previous studies that show the benefit of mother play in other areas such as in a child‘s creativity and social development using other devices such as music and toys. M
usic helps children connect the outer world of movement and sound with the inner world of feelings and obrvations. Children learn music the same way they learn language – by listening and imitating. Finger play promotes language development, motor skills and coordination, as well as lf-esteem. Young children are proud when they sing a song and can do the accompanying finger movements. Listening to music also teaches important pre-reading skills. As youngsters u small drums or other percussion instruments (homemade or store-bought), they can play the rhythmic pattern of words.
Babies become social beings through watching their parents, and through interacting with them and the rest of the family and later with others. It is a crucial time to begin teaching by example how people should behave toward one another. Toys that help babies with social development are stuffed animals, animal mobiles and dolls. Even very small babies can socialize with them. The infant will often conver with animal prancing on the crib bumpers or revolving on a mobile. Later, books and opportunities for make-believe and dress-up play also help children to develop social skills.
In the beginning, babies‘ hand movements are totally random. But within a few months tho tiny hands will move with more purpo and control. A mother has a particularly important role in the development of purpoful movement by giving her baby‘s hands plenty freedom; rather than keepin
g them swaddled or tucked under a blanket (except outdoor in cold weather). Rearchers suggest providing a variety of objects that are easy for small hands to pick up and manipulate, and that don‘t require fine dexterity. And since young babies usually won‘t grasp objects that are directly in front of them, a mother should offer the objects from the side.
Rearchers suggest that mother give babies ample opportunity for ―hands-on‖ experience with the following:
Rattles that fit small hands comfortably. Tho with two handles or grasping surfaces allow a baby to pass them from hand to hand, an important skill, and tho that baby can put their mouth on will help bring relief when teething begins. 65316426.doc 3
They also suggest mothers u cradle gyms (they fit across a carriage, playpen or crib) that have a variety of parts for baby to grab hold of, spin, pull and poke. Beware of tho, however, with strings more than six inches long, and take any gym down once your baby is able to sit up.
Another uful play device is an activity board that requires a wide range of hand movements to operate, many of which your baby won‘t be able to intentionally maneuver for a while, but some of which even a young infant can t in motion accidentally with a swipe of a hand or foot. Besides the
spinning, dialing, pushing, and pressing skills the toys encourage, they also teach the concept of cau and effect.
