With the rapid rise of mobile applications, many parents show their children all kinds of children's songs animated videos through mobile phone tablets, which is undoubtedly the progress of the times, but is this really good? Is it really helpful for children's education? In this regard, many doctors and parents have called for electronic early education not to replace traditional parent-child games!

Yesterday, such a trendy mom tasted the bitter fruit-1year-old' daughter was not only nearsighted, but also became unwilling to communicate with others. Doctors said that the phenomenon of "electronic early education" is worrying, which may easily lead to social obstacles and vision problems for children.

"Game fans" mothers use computers to teach their babies.

Peeling fruit, playing the piano, beating mice ... Ms. Zhang has installed more than 20 games on her computer. She not only plays by herself, but also is particularly keen to let her daughter, who has just turned one year old, play the piano on a computer with game software. My daughter had a good time, and gradually developed the habit of letting her parents hold her for a while every day, sometimes sitting in front of the computer for more than an hour.

Ms. Zhang found that her daughter was very focused when playing games. She didn't cry or make trouble. She was very clever. "This not only makes children have fun in the process of playing, but also learns knowledge. Why not? " With this in mind, Ms. Zhang regards the computer as a tool to educate her baby. In addition to letting her daughter play games, she also downloaded early childhood education software such as learning to draw and reading pictures, and taught her daughter to learn by computer.

Recently, Ms. Zhang found that her lively daughter became too quiet. She doesn't like playing with her family. She just likes to stay in front of the computer. Moreover, my daughter often rubs her eyes and looks at the computer screen very close. Yesterday, Ms. Zhang took her daughter to Wuhan Children's Hospital for examination. As a result, she found that the child had pseudomyopia, and her communication ability was worse than that of half a year ago.

The doctor advised parents to set an example.

Reporters can find hundreds of download links by searching for "early education software" on the Internet. In the pre-sales 12 list of APP Store educational software, early childhood education software accounted for nearly half.

The reporter found that most of these softwares include all kinds of pinyin learning, idiom stories and classic children's songs. , and use images, text, animation and other forms to guide the baby to learn. Even some popular video games among adults have launched "early education version" and "early childhood version" to attract parents to educate their babies.

This kind of "electronic early education" has aroused the concern of doctors. Li Shilian, director of the Department of Ophthalmology of Wuhan Children's Hospital, said that children facing electronic screens for a long time can easily cause myopia. In addition, many babies are addicted to playing games, which affects their normal communication ability and may lead to social obstacles in the future.

Li Shilian suggested that electronic products can be used as an auxiliary tool for early childhood education, but they can never replace the words and deeds of parents. Parents communicate with their babies more and take them to play traditional parent-child games, which is better than "electronic early education" and is conducive to their healthy physical and mental development.
