Recently, the Ministry of Education officially issued the compulsory Education Curriculum Program, which completely independent labor from the original comprehensive practical activity curriculum, and issued the compulsory Education Labor Curriculum Standard (2022 version).

Netizens can't help feeling: the labor class many years ago is back now!

Starting from the beginning of school this autumn, labor class will officially become an independent course in primary and secondary schools, and children's ability to take care of themselves, the ability to share housework and the ability to cook have also been clearly written into the labor curriculum standards.

As the old saying goes, educating people first educates people, and becoming a talented person leads to adulthood.

Allowing children to participate in housework from an early age can not only exercise their sense of independence, but also improve their parent-child relationship and help them grow up healthily.

Once upon a time, Hu Ke praised his son an Jichang meeting as a romantic on Weibo.

It turned out that when the whole family went for an outdoor picnic at the weekend, Hu Ke had intended to be simple, but Angie took the initiative to set up a balloon tent with full personality and silently made fruit yogurt for his family.

Born in July 2011, Anji is not yet 8 years old, but she has been able to make proper arrangements for the family's food, clothing, accommodation and transportation when the whole family goes on a trip.

In fact, as early as 5-year-old to participate in "where is Dad going", Angie's "vitality" is stronger than children of the same age.

In the program, due to flight delays, Sha Yi was unable to participate in group activities. Anji took the initiative to take care of his younger brother Xiaoyuer. He helped his younger brother put on his shoes and took him to dinner.

Angie's "vitality" benefits from his habit of doing housework since childhood.

In "Mom is Superman", six-year-old Angie not only does all the housework, but also leads his brother to go shopping in the vegetable market.

Angie can calmly deal with the challenge of "kid in charge" on the show because he is usually an expert at housework at home.

He not only does the housework by himself, but also teaches his younger brother.

Doing housework, especially do-it-yourself cooking, not only has mastered survival skills, but also has a profound impact on all aspects of children's lives.

Children who can cook are more competitive.

According to the book "the Secret of Finnish Education number one in the World", the first thing Finnish students do when they go to school every day is not to study, but to prepare lunch for themselves.

The teacher first took the students to study the recipes, and then the students went to the "kitchen classroom" one after another to show their skills according to the recipes.

In Finland, academic achievement is not the first criterion for judging students, and children who are good at cooking are more competitive.

Earlier, a junior high school boy in Shanghai was admitted to Hill Middle School, one of the world's top private high schools, for "cooking".

Hill High School is famous for its production elite. Former US Secretary of State James Baker, JPMorgan Chase Chairman Douglas Werner and famous Hollywood director Oliver Stone are all alumni of the high school.

Hill Middle School has an admission rate of less than 10% in China, while the lucky Shanghai student can neither play the piano nor excel in sports.

He was best at cooking, and filmed his cooking process into a video, moved the school with his cooking skills, and was finally successfully admitted.

Cooking is becoming a core competitiveness of children.

The ancients of our country also said, "governing a big country is like cooking something fresh."

Cooking small fresh refers to cooking small dishes, which means that the governance of a large country should be like making a small dish, relax, not too tight, not too demanding, not too hasty, always master the heat in order to cook the expected food.

As a result, children who are good at cooking are more patient in work and life, better at judging the hour and sizing up the situation, more competitive than their peers, and more likely to make achievements.

Children who can cook have more harmonious interpersonal relationships.

After American mother Nicole posted a picture of her 6-year-old son cooking on Facebook, countless netizens left a message saying she wanted to take such a son home.

Six-year-old Lyle is a very warm boy. He cooks, washes clothes and takes care of his one-year-old sister at home every day.

Every month, Lyle also invited his mother to dinner with the candied fruit he had accumulated and talked with his mother about interesting things in each other's lives.

Every time he opened the door for his mother like a little gentleman, pulled up the chair, and carefully tipped the waiter before leaving.

Lyle's thoughtfulness and sensibility are all attributed to his mother's "kitchen education".

The mother firmly believes that a good man must start with housework, and she has taught her son to cook from an early age.

Mother said:

"I teach my son to cook, to let my child enjoy a good childhood, and to teach him skills that can last a lifetime.

Now the school does not teach children how to cook and wash clothes. I teach my son how to do these things, so that he can be a reliable person when he enters the society. "

Lyle already knew how to care about the people around him when he was only 6 years old. when he entered the society, he would naturally make a good impression and have a good relationship with people.

Many parents mistakenly think that their children are wasting their time doing housework now, and they will do it naturally when they grow up, or they think that doing housework is hard work, so they simply do it all for their children, but parents' concern is likely to delay their children. letting children do housework from an early age is of great use to his future development.

A follow-up survey of 84 children by the University of Minnesota shows that children who start doing housework from the age of 3 or 4 are more likely to build good relationships with family and friends than those who do not do housework until puberty.

Children who eat and open their mouths tend to be self-centered, but through their own cooking and experiencing their parents' hard work, children can learn to put themselves in other people's shoes, so they are better at understanding and caring for others, and have higher empathy. Have more harmonious relationships.

Children who can cook are better at thinking.

Steven Chu, Nobel laureate in physics and the first Chinese-American Secretary of Energy of the United States, said in an interview:

"hands-on cooking, like doing experiments, can train a person's concentration and problem-solving ability.

This kind of experience and ability is of great benefit to a person to solve the bottleneck problems in scientific research and to think scientifically.

It is hard to imagine that children who can only study and cannot even fry or boil eggs will know how to do experiments. "

Chu has two brothers, all three of whom have doctorates.

Among them, my brother is a professor at Stanford University School of Medicine, and my younger brother is a practising lawyer in a well-known American law firm.

The Zhu family has trained a total of 12 PhDs.
