In the blink of an eye, Beibei has drawn more than 150 paintings. As a mother, I'm so proud of him!
No extracurricular classes, no teaching by hand, what we can do is, insist! The way to persevere is to use all your strength to say the words of "encouragement, edification, patience, and love"! To tell the truth, I often fail, irritable to get angry! However, I don't need to be perfect, I just need to keep going!
Beginning in 2020, due to the epidemic, the school began to take classes online, which gave me the opportunity to get in touch with his learning mode in various aspects. It turned out that my son had a lot of joy, challenges, setbacks and satisfaction in school.
My mother would stare at the "frustrated" part and worry about it. At that time, what was more annoying was that Beibei would end up crying when she drew a picture! In the end, my sister "helped" him and handed in his homework. In fact, he is full of enthusiasm every time he starts to paint. I think he has high expectations for himself, but he lacks skill training halfway, so he is frustrated and gives up. From his crying state, I feel that he is also very fond of himself. disappointment.
The last sentence is: "I can't draw!" I want to end my painting career! I think life is very long, full stamina is very important, and the most important thing to be a parent in the early stage is "don't provoke the child's anger, lest he lose his ambition." Let's think about whether it is one of the reasons why we respect our favorite seniors, teachers or elders in our lives. One is that they once "recognized and encouraged" us. I remember watching "Slam Dunk" when I was a child. Coach Anzai said to Hisashi Mitsui: "If you lose heart, the game will end early!" Emma, poke your heart! Keep looking for direction...
One day in a history class, the teacher shared a video link. It was a father teaching his son to draw children's paintings, one stroke at a time. The father had a word of encouragement for his son, "The most important thing is to draw? Keep practicing and have fun painting!" Beibei and I followed them stroke by stroke, and he was very happy to complete a piece of work! It is #001 George Washington George Washington, the first president of the United States. Dad saw it and thought it was very interesting! I was also relieved to be able to hand in my homework!
Later we decided to follow this video and draw a picture every day. The theme is chosen by Beibei. The goal is to let him not be afraid to draw! Getting started... But it's all about persistence! I think persistence is not equal to perfection, but to continue to persist without shame or self-blame after failing to persist! I like a sentence very much: Never quit, you win!
Obviously, I didn't draw 365 pictures in a year, and I played every day during the holidays! However, we are not going to give up, just keep going!
It's been more than a year, and now Beibei feels that he can draw anything, but he doesn't think he can't draw anymore! Never quit! You win!
These paintings are an encouragement, we have dated and numbered them, like a diary with many stories in the paintings!
