What is the significance and value of regional activities in kindergartens?

Regional activity is a curriculum model that integrates children's learning into games. This model breaks the traditional curriculum view, that is, teachers consciously divide the whole range of activities into several small areas according to educational goals, and then put materials in a planned and purposeful way.

In regional activities, children can choose game partners and activities according to their own wishes, and actively communicate and explore. Therefore, compared with group activities, regional activities can promote children's development.

Regional activities are an important form of children's autonomous activities. It is an autonomous learning activity with the purpose of happiness and satisfaction and the way of operation and fiddling. It is a unique way for children to actively seek to solve problems, and its motivation is dominated by internal motivation rather than external commands, which is manifested as "I want to play" rather than "I want to play". Autonomy is an inherent feature of children's play activities.

Regional activities fully reflect the characteristics of children's physical and mental development, can meet the needs of children's activities and games, better promote children's natural, free, happy and healthy growth, and realize "learning by playing" and "learning by doing".

In regional activities, children's enthusiasm for participation is very high, and they can actively use their brains and create boldly. This is because children have just left infancy, are closest to human nature, have no pressure to survive and study, and are full of curiosity about everything around them. The desire to explore germinates and develops in their hearts, prompting them to play, pursue and explore.

On the other hand, with the help of games, which are similar to social atmosphere, we can solve the contradiction between demand and reality, achieve the experience and understanding of real life, eliminate tension and satisfy curiosity.
