Children photography boy kuku

This article was submitted to Martin, which won me the first payment in my life. It was originally published on Ma Dan's children's book WeChat official account. There are many pictures, so it is recommended to watch the big picture.

An excellent picture book can sow a seed in a child's heart, bringing not only knowledge but also strength to the child.

First, the tenderness flowing in the blood

Some classic picture books are really warm to read, maybe pictures, maybe words, maybe situations. I always remember that there are several picture books. When I read with my son, we will smile at each other tacitly after reading. Under the dim light, silent warmth is ironed in the heart and flows into the blood.

All children are gentle at heart. They like animals, love them and treat everything like angels.

Say good night to the comb ...

All classic picture books know how to arouse children's inner softness and let them treat the world gently.

But they are all gentle and sensitive, just like the little boy in the picture book Dear Little Fish. They are reluctant to let go of the little fish and feel uneasy about love. There is not a child who does not love his mother. If the mother doesn't give proper feedback, it will make them feel at a loss and anxious.

At this point, many classic picture books are very good. Olivia and David, for example, can't. No matter how naughty the children are, mom always says:

No matter how mom and dad are, we should say "I love you too" at last.

I have always believed that love can give children the most primitive strength. However, love must be expressed.

In this regard, some mothers may feel at a loss, because in daily environment, you don't know how to express it, so picture books will help you a lot.

Hugs, magic kisses, runaway rabbits, good night, moon, guess how much I love you and so on. They are all very gentle and loving picture books, which can establish a very reliable and warm parent-child relationship. Such picture books are an indispensable part of the parent-child reading list.

There are also many warm picture books, among which Amo's sick leave is the favorite. It is a rare bidding work in Cadillac Award. It tells the story of Amo visiting his old friends in the zoo every day, playing chess with elephants, racing with turtles, sitting with penguins and telling stories to owls. One day, Amo fell ill. These old friends in the zoo missed him very much and came to his house. The elephant played chess with him, the tortoise sat with him, the penguin prepared water for him, the owl told him stories, and finally everyone hugged each other and slept together.

This is a story of giving and returning, and it is also a story of warmth and love. The grandfather's name in the picture book is Amo, which makes people feel very kind. Instead of promoting the most important view of the elderly, I chose other angles, that is, it embodies the view that the elderly are lonely and need love, and interprets the meaning of love and feedback. In addition, this is a picture book with role exchange. Through proper reading guidance, children's empathy ability can be effectively cultivated.

I have always believed that only writers and translators who know children's psychology best can achieve a classic. Amo's sick leave is one of the best.

Second, the aesthetic rooted in the heart.

What is aesthetics? Very abstract.

Actually, I have no aesthetic foundation myself. On the road of picture books, while learning and groping, children are growing and I am growing. Among them, the growth of children is hard to perceive, but the improvement of self is real. Especially in aesthetics, it is a great progress to be able to tolerate, accept and like many different works from the beginning.

At first, I liked to buy watercolor picture books. I felt good-looking, fresh and niche. This may be influenced by some online celebrity illustrations, and it is hard to gamble in retrospect. The mother's vision determines the child's vision. If all I see is a sky, do you think children can jump out of this field? It's hard. What should I do?

Learn to tolerate. When you see a picture book, especially a picture book with a big prize, don't try to deny it first. Read its information, comments and even recommendations carefully. The more you learn, the more you know.

Let's enjoy the master's paintings together.

Everyone here is a world-class master. It can be seen that every master has his own painting style and style. For children, style is neither good nor bad. Good illustration is the soul of a picture book, which can effectively improve the quality of a picture book. In the case of little price difference, my mother strongly recommends that you buy a master picture book.

I don't know if you have this experience. Many best-selling works, you will produce many versions when you search on the platform. For example, Niels' trip to ride a goose. This is also a typical case of my purchase mistake. I entered a set of "Niels' Goose Riding Journey" very early. I made two mistakes when I bought it at that time: First, I bought it at the wrong time and was a little over-aged. This story is suitable for children above 5+, and even the pupils behind can read it independently. Second, I bought the wrong version. Looking at it now, the painting style of this picture book is too "gambling".

This is a version I recently discovered. You can compare the difference between the two. The latter is much better than the former in proportion, color and lines. This is like the difference between an animated cartoon and an animated film.

Excellent works can moisten people's hearts. You may not see it now, but it will show up later. Why do I particularly want to recommend picture books? It is because I always feel that due to the influence of time and energy, treasure moms often miss many excellent picture books.

Excellent works can bring you beautiful feelings and enlightenment. Picture books are not good or bad, but have different aesthetic levels; Just like a circle, if you don't jump out, the child can't jump out. Some time ago, an article was particularly popular-"Aesthetic power will be the core competitiveness of future children". At this point, I firmly believe. At least aesthetics is a basic project. Engineers in the fields of architecture, clothing, film and television, director, photography, animation, games and even interface design all need aesthetics, covering almost all fields. It is good to show children "masterpieces" from an early age.

Third, philosophy buried deep in thought.

When I was young, one of the six best movies in the League Central Committee was Sophie's World. This is inspired by philosophy. To tell the truth, I have forgotten the content of this movie, but I still remember the inspiration of this movie, as if there is a force that deeply draws me … and makes me learn to think about everything.

Thinking is philosophy.

Think about life, happiness, growth and pain.

Do you want to enlighten your children in philosophy? My suggestion is necessary. Enlightenment here is not obscure theory and boring preaching, but the meaning of thinking. There is such a master in the picture book industry. I think his works are full of Zen. This master is Leo.

I think it is necessary to introduce the experience of this master.

Leo Lionni won the Cadic Prize four times. 1910 was born in Amsterdam, the Netherlands on May 5, 2000. His father is a Belgian Jewish businessman and his mother is a soprano. Because his home is near the art museum and his uncles are architects, painters and art collectors, he has been immersed in a rich artistic atmosphere since he was a child. Leonie is a brilliant and unconstrained artistic genius, proficient in painting, sculpture, graphic design, printing, ceramics, photography ... and once served as the design director of Fortune magazine 10 years. 1955 won the best advertisement production designer award of the American Graphic Arts Association, and 1956 won the gold medal of the Architectural Alliance.

Leonie's first half life has nothing to do with children's picture books. He really started to create picture books in 1959, when he was 49 years old. At that time, he was already a grandfather and got on the train with his two granddaughters. When I was bored, I tore two color blocks in the magazine and began to tell stories. This is the famous little blue yellow. What is the story that a man who is over half a year old wants to draw when he picks up a brush? You can have a look if you are interested.

The vole Buddha tells the story of a group of voles preparing food for winter. One vole was very different. Other voles asked him, What are you doing? It said, "I'm collecting sunlight", followed by "I'm collecting colors" and finally "collecting sounds". When the earth was white and all the food was eaten up, everyone asked Ah Fu, "Where is your sunshine?" "What color are you?" "Where's your voice?" What happened? Bao Ma's extraordinary talents can be found in picture books. In the end, everyone said that "Ah Fu is a poet". This story is so light that it is difficult for you to explain clearly what it wants to express, but it really touches you. This is Leo's work.

During the summer vacation, Dabao went back to his hometown and once had a video chat with Dabao. I asked him what he was doing. He said he was looking at the sky, so beautiful, and then pointed his mobile phone at the sky for me to see. I don't know why, at that moment, I felt a little moved.

Leoni's work is a picture book highly recommended by translation master A Jia. But because of its Zen flavor, it may be more suitable for older babies. But every book is worth reading. Another book that impressed me deeply was Fish is Fish. What are humans like in the world of fish? This is a question worth thinking about. I don't know if you have seen Stephen Chow's Mermaid, the most hilarious police alarm clip in it. Maybe you can find some clues about this picture book.

Read more picture books and find that many movies have the habit of looking for inspiration in children's picture books. In Spirited Away's movies, the most puzzling thing is why mom and dad turned into a pig. Perhaps children who have read the picture book "The Story of Zhujiajian Island" can answer you. It is precisely because of this that my mother wants to promote picture books more and more. All the picture books you have read will be the source of your future career inspiration, which is also my belief in parent-child reading.

Fourth, the self that melts in the bones.

All children need to be recognized. Whether naughty, quiet, naive or delicate, every child has his own temperament. You must recognize his behavior and temperament before he can put away his fangs and sharp tools.

There are many picture books about self-cognition, and Olivia is my favorite one here. Olivia, a cool pig, is not only my favorite, but also Dabao's favorite. I read Olivia's book once with Dabao, and the second time he could read the picture and say it. Besides, he often studies.

With Olivia, there is also a Madeleine.

Madeleine of Lotte is also my favorite. Seeing these excellent picture books, I have always felt that the author is really powerful, and the image can be shaped so three-dimensionally in a few simple words. Madeleine and Olivia are completely different little girls. Madeleine is an optimist, carefree and heartless, but kind, brave, smart and witty. The author Beemelmans is very talented. Madeleine has written six books, two of which won Cadillac prizes. This is very rare in the history of Cadillac. Generally, the second Cadillac will not be given the same series. Obviously, the judges gave Madeleine an exception.

In addition, there are many similar picture books about self-cognition. For example, Bigfoot Ballet, Naughty Princess, Yiyi among sheep, giraffe can't dance, little red bird, striped body and so on. Through these picture books, I want to tell my children that it is best to be myself. Everyone has his own bright spot. Giraffes can dance and little red birds can sing. There is no absolute thing. Don't sell yourself short, you can try whatever you like.

Five, sealed in the subconscious imagination

Children are the most imaginative.

Why does Cadic especially admire surrealism?

Cadic Prize winners david wiesner, Allen Becker, maurice sendak and anthony browne are all masters of imagination. Their works are often unrestrained and unrestrained. The transition from one picture to another can only be handled by the word surprise.

The little boy lying in bed in Animal Country found that his room had changed and turned into a forest.

The boy in the fantasy flight found that his quilt was opened and turned into a field.

"Crazy Tuesday" The frog sat on the flying carpet and started a magical journey.

The Incredible Journey The little girl drew a door on the wall with a brush, which turned out to be a forest.

Are these four scenes familiar? I think they are just like dreams. Surrealist painters are good at putting subconscious scenes on canvas. The above four works are all Kadik Gold Award works, and almost all of them have no words. The paintings that the author wants to talk about are basically conveyed through pictures, and my mother likes such picture books very much.

Among them, Mother Cai wants to recommend a master: David wisner, winner of the 6th Kadik Prize, who is good at picture books without words. He created a total of 1 1 picture books, six of which won Cadillac prizes. You can see his talent from it. Every time I read his works, it is an inspirational journey about imagination. "1June 29th, 999" is the latest bibliography read by my parents and children. It is rare to see anyone recommend this picture book, but it is really great! It's about a little girl who did an experiment to launch vegetable seedlings into space with balloons. After a period of time, a large number of giant vegetables (giant radish, giant pumpkin, giant broccoli, etc. ) floating down from the sky.

The little girl thought her experiment was successful, but slowly she found that many vegetables that she didn't launch fell from the sky, and she began to wonder if these vegetables were tested by herself. Want to know the result? David wiesner is good at burying surprises at the end of articles. You can read it if you like.

As for imagination, I often think of our great poet Li Bai, who is an imaginative poet. The poems Sleepwalking in the Sky and Song of Farewell are masterpieces here. I often think of this poem when I look at some works. Although poetry and painting are two fields, sometimes I think there are some similarities between them. After studying for such a long time, I found that the top poets, writers, painters and artists in the world all have one thing in common, that is, imagination. Therefore, we must protect children's imagination, and picture books are one way.

Six, calmly distributed throughout the body.

The unknown is frightening, but knowing how to calm people down. Reading various picture books can bring more peace to children. Learn to understand, learn to fear, learn to be brave, know and manage emotions, know love, disease and death. In the picture book, children can be more calm and calm in the face of various scenes.

(1) Learn to understand.

The story of Zhu family, written by anthony browne. Zhu's mother did all the housework of Zhu's family. Then one day, Zhu's mother disappeared, and his father and children became pigs without housework. Then his mother came back, and they changed back. From then on, they were all happy to do housework together. Through this book, children can understand their mother's difficulties and learn to share them.

(2) learn to fear.

Teacher Nelson is missing. The students in Class 307 are very noisy and don't listen to the gentle teacher Nelson. One day, Mr. Nelson disappeared and a teacher like a witch came. The gloomy teacher Swan took out a ruler and punished her with a sharp voice. The children were scared and listened to her quietly. Everyone began to miss Mr. Nelson, so they went to see him spontaneously. Finally, teacher Nelson came back, and the children sat and listened to the teacher's story honestly. Of course, at the end of the story, Mr. Swan disappeared! Maybe the swamp teacher here painted it so horribly. Since reading this book, sometimes Dabao is disobedient, and I will remind him: "The mother of the swamp is coming out!" " "I immediately changed my tone and expression after hearing it. This is the power of awe.

(3) learn to be brave.

Willy the Coward tells the story of a thin little boy who became strong and brave through exercise. The quality of anthony browne's works has always been guaranteed.

(4) understand emotions. Feifei is angry, angry with Arthur, angry soup, animal country, I become a fire-breathing dragon, Jerry's quiet space, etc. They are all excellent picture books for understanding and relieving emotions.

(5) Understand dreams and pursuits. The sky is at your feet, tightrope walkers and grandma Hua.

(6) Know how to live and die. A gift from a cat and a badger who has lived 6.5438 million times.

There are many classic and excellent picture books, which cannot be described clearly in a few words. The above-mentioned mother-in-law basically introduces inspirational picture books, but there are actually many excellent encyclopedia picture books. For example, Lele's secret series, Matsuoka Camp's biological encyclopedia picture book and so on. Some mothers may find it difficult to tell a picture book about encyclopedic knowledge, but it is not. The key is not to really think of reading as reading. Reading is a process, and books are just a way. You should spread some knowledge you have through parent-child reading, even if you think he may not understand it.

When Dabao and I were reading the book Revealing the Body, we carefully looked at it and briefly introduced the principle. Then I told him that the eyes are the windows of the soul, so people should look at their eyes. I don't know why I told him this. He is only four years old. But once he went to paint, in that class, the teacher guided them to draw an old man. He did well in that class. After class, the teacher praised him with me and said he was great. Do you know why? Because the teacher said "eyes are the windows of the soul" when talking about eyes in class.

Picture books provide a way to convey thinking and a bridge for parent-child interaction. If you feel helpless in maintaining parent-child relationship, then read it together!

Ending:

On this road of education, what makes me most helpless and helpless is the word "circle". An old proverb, "The donkey gives birth to the donkey, the phoenix gives birth to the phoenix, and the mouse makes holes", is alarming. Dad Bao and I are both working-class, and both have relatively stable jobs. However, in a big city like Beishangguangshen and Shenzhen, it still belongs to the middle and lower classes; Learning can be seen as a brick to open the door. Poor families can give birth to your son through learning, but more and more signs show that it is difficult for poor families to give birth to your son, while it is easy for your son's family to give birth to your son.

A while ago, Ma Yili's daughter won the national Latin dance championship; Crystal's daughter model contest won the prize; Li's daughter comes from the gas field; Li Xiang's 9-year-old daughter won the painting award.

These are not born, not experience or environment. Looking at the world, there is a big pattern, which is never empty talk.

Want to ask a famous teacher to teach painting, the cost of a single class will surprise you; If you want to take your children to the ballet, you must never sit in the middle. These are all realities and helplessness, but some of them are for everyone and everyone is equal. For example, books are the cheapest educational products.

Obama took the children to read "The Country of Beasts" and "The Incredible Journey", which have been put on my bookshelf; Deng Chao recommended The Little Zebra Who Belches, and I can start with one at any time. Therefore, if I only spend 50 yuan a month on children's education, I will definitely choose books. Because it can bring the greatest uncertainty, it may also produce the highest value income.

With the rapid development of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data, what abilities should we cultivate children? A while ago, after Alpha Dog beat the world's strongest chess player, I began to reflect on whether to sign up for Go for my children. Although the child is only 6 years old, I have begun to worry about which direction and career he should pursue so as not to be eliminated by society. To be sure, you need a career similar to creativity, aesthetics and imagination. Simple knowledge memory and repeated calculation are bound to become the territory of artificial intelligence. Therefore, I pay special attention to the cultivation and guidance of children's aesthetics, imagination and creativity. This is also the original intention of my writing this article. What can picture books bring to our children? There is no absolute answer, a thousand readers have a thousand Hamlets, but the key is action.
