When I was a student, I always thought that history was something to be memorized. What is there to learn? At that time, I studied history just to prepare for the exam.
It was not until I had children now that I became interested in history. I watch history with my children every day, and I will find it my pleasure to read history with my children every day.
For example, when reading History of Qin State, Zhao Gao was autocratic. From the allusions referring to a deer as a horse, the child saw that the facts were distorted and black and white were reversed. He would say, Mom, it's all Zhao Gao's fault. The state of Qin perished so soon. How could Qin Shihuang use such a person?
I understand what Gao said: the best training is to let children read history.
In an interview with Lu Yu, Wang Jianlin once said that he likes history, and the management of enterprises cannot be separated from ancient wisdom. It can be seen that history is very important for people and careers.
Faye Wong and Li's daughter, Li Yan, visited the Forbidden City many times, and specially invited a history teacher from China to study the history for seven years.
………
So, what are the benefits of letting children read history?
Some people rely on talent to counterattack, while others rely on identity to counterattack. If you have nothing, it depends on the pattern.
A person's pattern is the height of values.
If we don't have the conditions to take our children to see the world's famous mountains, rivers and human history often, then we will let our children read history, because there will always be people who give them a higher level of material things than we do, but if we read through history, others can't compare with us.
Because history records many things, such as the experiences of the ancients, their thoughts and the experiences of China people, reading history can help children see the world from a higher place.
Just like the success of the famous physicist Newton, he stood on the shoulders of giants, and the experience provided by predecessors can better improve our vision and pattern.
Historian Qian Mu once said: A knowledgeable person can only be a knowledgeable person if he doesn't know the history of his own country, not a knowledgeable China person.
History can heal people's hearts, help people change from the heart, thus improving people's self-cultivation and making people feel more national.
History is the root of China people. If a person doesn't even know the history of his own country, how can he talk about anything else?
Self-cultivation is not innate, but gradually formed through long accumulation. It emanates from your bones and is hidden in the roads you have traveled and books you have read, regardless of your appearance.
In the process of children's education, the most important influence is parents, followed by the education of school teachers, as well as friends and classmates around them.
Those who are close to Mexico are also close to Zhu Zhechi, but when children have their own opinions, it is difficult for us to convince them.
Therefore, from reading history books, we can learn a lot about the ability to distinguish right from wrong, so that children can understand black and white, just like the example of Zhao Gao, the State of Qin mentioned earlier.
Look! In fact, children's ability to distinguish is still very strong.
Children like Guan Yu, Cao Cao and Zhuge Liang when they see the Three Kingdoms. He said Guan Yu was brave. Speaking of Cao Cao's generosity; Say Zhuge Liang is clever; In fact, these are the labels he put on those people. He knows that he likes their courage and responsibility.
We are not great. We just need to tell our children that we must protect ourselves at all times, and then we should help others and be responsible for our family and our work.
Finally, the ancients said that taking copper as a mirror can be a good way to dress; Take people as a mirror, you can know the gains and losses; Taking history as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall.
You don't have to be a historian to read history, but it is also a blessing for children to have a new understanding of the world and more possibilities for life because they have read a certain period of history.
