How to give good values to children
Swami Atma Anand says that the easiest way to give good values to children is to tell them stories. he/she says that when you give direct knowledge to children like do this, don’t do that, then they don’t understand it or they don’t remember it. But when you tell them the same thing in the form of a story, then the child remembers it.
What to do after telling the story
Motivational speaker says that after telling the story of great men like Buddha or Maharana Pratap, you should discuss it with the child. Ask him/her what he/she learned from the story. When you do this even for 10 minutes, you will be able to give him/her a very good sanskar. he/she will not even realize that it is a story and his/her life will become a complete life.
This was Swami Atma Anand’s advice for giving good values to children. Now let us know what other benefits there are of telling stories to children.
development of imagination
Listening to stories enhances the imagination of children. They associate themselves with the characters in the story and create their own world.
Apart from this, new words and sentences are used in the stories, which increases the child’s vocabulary and he/she learns to speak properly.
Development of cultural values
Stories in Indian culture reflect our values and traditions. By listening to these stories children learn about our society and culture. Through stories children understand various emotions and learn to deal with them. They start recognizing emotions like happiness, sadness, anger, love etc.
Development of social skills
Children learn good manners and social skills by observing the relationships between characters in stories. They understand values such as cooperation, friendship, and respect. Listening to stories before bedtime calms children and helps them fall asleep.
Storytelling is a fun and great way for children to learn. It plays a vital role in their overall development. So, make it a habit to tell stories to children regularly.
