How to read fairy tales to the children

Children’s fairy tale is essential to the growth of the spirit of nutrition. Some scholars have even said that as a child does not read fairy tales, there will be mentally defective. It sounds good, “terrorist” Yes! - As a child because I did not read the how.

You might say it does not believe it, “Fairy Tale” is still a fuzzy concept. Please China, Japan, the United States to sit together researchers, even if the discussion and a half days, they will not achieve reunification. To be an ordinary readers are quite happy, we know only in general terms, is a fairy tale for children belonging to the literary form is enough.

Reading fairy tales to children, not all adults are comfortable. The lack of experienced adults read fairy tales, fairy tales, most often not used to not say “if” problems. They also openly “thinking” is basically unrealistic, so people are suspected of “lack of knowledge.” What a headache adults, many with a “classic” children’s label, not only have good relations with the United States, there are bad and the ugly things - for the children reading such things would not be bad to teach the children, scare The bad kids?

On the fairy tale, a very important point, we are often ignored - it is a form of literature. Children to read fairy tales, the most in need of a literary reading of the mood. What is literature for? It is the knowledge to stimulate the imagination, is a social experience. While this experience is fictional, it is essential that our lives can be extended, and an extension of sublimation.

As a literary fairy tale is remarkable, it allows children in the cradle of comfort, warmth of the embrace, a warm room to experience various forms of the human world, at any time in any restrictions. Fairy Tale in the conflict can be very mild, it can be quite fierce, but no matter how the development of the final peace are better - “They are happy to live in a beautiful castle.” Peaceful reunification, never, is an adult fairy tale with the general literature in dealing with the conflicting attitudes of the most significant difference. Whether a child in the world to imagine how arbitrary travel, they always last in the cradle, arms, the room “safe landing.” Excellent, classic fairy tale, this is always great!

In a mood to read literature to children read fairy tales, I feel the need to pay attention to the following basic elements:

(A) the story is the story
Many people read in the literature used in the “pigeon-holing”, in reading stories to children, this trend more evident. For example, adults often heard advice for children, the story of how a person, children do it. This is an interpretation of the story, but as a literary reading, the total may not do so good, or even a little worse. Almost everyone knows the “Cinderella” story, but to change themselves into “Cinderella waiting for Prince to save the” women should be a very small number of right. Today, although the story of the heroine’s character and life orientation, we may not agree, but “Cinderella” story is still beautiful. “The story is the story,” read the story know how to master from the story “come out” and will know how to guide children to jump out.

Institute of arm’s length in order to better appreciate the story. There are good stories and the United States, there will be evil and the ugly, they are valuable life experience. I do not know ugly and will not know how good. The appreciation of literature from the point of view, the story of the ugly and evil (inevitable if any) the more realistic image, the story would be more perfect. In the fairy tale, children will eventually land safely.

In the full account of children’s intellectual and emotional capacity to accept the premise, I would like to not have any intention to evade a fairy tale that seems dark side. At the same time, the story would not have to become truth, there is no need to use reason is the story. The story is the story of a real good story in itself a powerful moral force.

(B) the importance of language:

Children’s literature, language and literature through to the performance. We read fairy tales to children, but also in helping children to enjoy and learn the language of literature. Truly outstanding master of fairy tales are often also master the language. Collection of “Grimm’s Fairy Tales” Two Brothers Grimm, linguists in itself. Have been created for the children of Chinese and foreign classic fairy tale writer Hans Christian Andersen, such as, Charles, Carroll, Oscar Wilde, Graham Porter, Lindgren, White, Dr. Su Si, Ende, Yang Song, Darfur, Ba Jin, Bing Heart, Zhang Tianyi, Ye Shengtao, blowing Chen, Sun Youjun, and so on, have a deep linguistic ability, and children know very psychological. I have always been very stubborn people to proposals in time for the children’s fairy tale, as far as possible, the original choice (including the original version of the good), peeled and use of a variety of disposal of the rewrite of the bone, this acronym.

(C) the importance of the picture
In addition to directly cultivate children’s ability to think outside the image, pictures of children in reading pleasure is the biggest function that allows children to be very easy to accept, knowing it was in literature, art and nurturing. Children to read fairy tales, illustrated the extent possible, choose a good read, it is best to choose the real picture book. The real picture book, not the kind of descriptive text with illustrations of books, pictures of the picture book itself is able to speak the story, the text describes the picture and description of their respective advantages, can not be replaced, Xiangyingchengqu.

(D) the importance of merit:

Reading to children, including children’s books, designed to allow access to children’s reading habits, maintain the enthusiasm to read. Generally speaking, reading, the children should be given sufficient freedom of choice. However, childhood is very short time, the child is not born of reading experts, so adults should as far as possible for children to choose outstanding works, the children gradually merit-based culture.

Due to the deficiency of childhood, many adults read fairy tales is the lack of experience, know that in addition to Grimm’s Fairy Tales, Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, Chinese and foreign children’s literature of the world’s best works almost know nothing about. In fact, this is a very vast and beautiful world of contemporary Chinese and foreign are a number of classic fairy tales abound, and in the form of picture books to the excellent performance of the fairy tale in the world today has created a very large trend. Today’s children, is very happy! As long as we, the adults can pause to reflect, to learn with an open mind, we can from this beautiful world was Amoy countless baby. So that our children will not regret it.
