Goal, objectives
The goal of this direction in education is the formation of an aesthetic culture in a person, which consists of the following aspects:
- Perception. This is the ability to notice various forms of manifestation of beauty, including in nature, work, and everyday life.
- Feelings. The ability to emotionally evaluate harmony and perfection.
- Needs. The desire to receive aesthetic pleasure, to contemplate works of art, the beauty of nature.
- Tastes. Ability to conduct assessments. Analysis of real world objects from an aesthetic position.
- Ideals. Individual ideas about what is perfect and harmonious in nature, people, and art.
The goal of aesthetic education is specified in a number of tasks:
- Developing in a child the ability to see beauty and appreciate it.
- Formation of a harmonious personality.
- Development of artistic taste.
- Formation of an aesthetic ideal, the desire to become beautiful not only externally, but also internally, in actions, thoughts, and deeds.
- Stimulating creative abilities and the desire for their development.
As a result of upbringing, a child must understand what harmony and perfection are, be able to empathize, be distinguished by emotional responsiveness, and imagination.
Tips and tricks for parents
It is important to carry out aesthetic education of the child by all available means, creating a harmonious environment for him, giving him the opportunity to independently engage in artistic creativity in the chosen direction. Parents need to talk with the baby and give answers to all the questions he has. And classes with a teacher will help develop taste.
When choosing forms of work, you should focus on the age of the baby:
- Visiting the theater is permissible from 1.5 years of age; the repertoire of puppet theaters includes short-lasting productions that will not have time to tire the baby.
- You can talk about paintings, musical works, and talk about their authors from the age of 3–4; children already understand a lot and will definitely listen with interest and ask questions.
- At 4–5 years old you can visit an exhibition, including a library one.
- At 5-6 years old - go to the Philharmonic or ballet.
Giving a child the opportunity to create is another method of aesthetic education, and he can choose the type of activity to his liking. Some people like to draw pictures in the sand, while others like to write short congratulatory poems for mom or dad. Parents should not limit creative impulses, but give their child the freedom to choose and realize their own ideas.
Do not underestimate the importance of aesthetic education for preschoolers; it will help to spiritually enrich the child’s personality, make him developed, rich, able to feel subtly and receive aesthetic pleasure.
