often watch some English cartoons to exercise children's English thinking. For parents who are busy at work and elderly people who do not understand English, cartoons are a very effective way to learn English. How does
choose the right animation? How to properly use animation for English enlightenment?
1. Use the entry-level cartoons for foreigners to learn English
In the early days, you can choose the kind of entry-level cartoons for foreigners to learn English. Don't just watch the original foreign cartoons for children.
Because generally speaking, foreign children learn English cartoons are very simple, the speaking speed is very slow, there is a transition from scratch, even if it is mixed with Chinese, it does not matter. Let the children become interested and have a certain amount of vocabulary accumulation, and then give them some animations with simple plots. Of course, children with a certain foundation in English can cross this stage.
I made this mistake when I first chose cartoons for my children. I followed the trend at first and chose the famous blue koala and Peppa Pig. But the accumulation of vocabulary of our baby is still very small, and many of them are incomprehensible. Just watch the excitement, and then read the book or expand after watching the video.
2. Have a certain understanding of cartoons, so how to learn?
is three thousand weak, and I only take suitable
. I also suffered in this regard. I chose cartoons of inappropriate age for the child, which has a certain impact on the progress of the child. Moreover, for children in preschool and lower grades, watching cartoons can deepen their language and understanding skills.
So they are not very demanding on the plot, and they tend to like to repeat it. At this time, it is not a good thing to fill her with a lot of cartoons.
Therefore, there are many resources, please choose the one that suits your child and your child likes it. As for how many episodes are played every day, and how long, this also needs to be determined according to the child's situation.
Maintaining interest is the most important thing.
We can discuss the content of cartoons with our children . At this time, you can discuss in English or Chinese to help children understand the picture.
For another example, playing role-playing with children is very helpful to cultivate children's interest. For example, when we are watching the little blue koala, we can role-play with her. For example, in the episode of playing with color, you can ask a child to ask, "what color do you like?" Tell her, "red", let her find it, our baby can play and love it when he is less than two years old .
In addition to the above mentioned, we can also play with our children to expand . For example, after watching Peppa Pig, we can use the toys of Peppa Pig to play house, and we can also cut paper and make plasticine. Our children like to play coloring games.
Here are the favorite cartoons of children of all ages:
entry level (enlightenment stage)
garden baby in the night garden
Suitable for: 1-3 years old
has a section, when we are over 1 year old, my children love the garden The baby is so addictive that he will cry when it is turned off. This cartoon is an emotional intelligence enlightenment animation with few vocabulary, but is very in line with the psychology of little babies, especially suitable for young babies, and babies over 1 year old also love it. Similar to is the British Teletubbies.

Dora the Explorer
Suitable for: 3-6 years old
This is an American-made cartoon that teaches Hispanic children to learn English. Each episode is about 24 minutes.
Dora and her friendsIt is a risk to teach children English phrases of colors, shapes, and numbers, and let them think in the form of riddles and questions, and understand the usefulness of maps, the importance of friendship, and the use of tools.
I think the most rare thing is that although troublemakers are villains, they are not absolutely opposite, and they will not allow children to develop black and white values.
Children who like Dora can continue to watch Dora’s cousin's story "Little Jungle Hero Diego", and Dora's sequel "Dora Grew Up: The City Adventure of Dora and Friends".
Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
Suitable for: 3-8 years old
is about the same difficulty as Dora, and it is also a teaching animation. The biggest feature is that it is extremely interactive. Each episode has a question and answer session that allows children to participate. I have to rush to answer every time, haha. The protagonists of
are Mickey, Minnie, Donald Duck, Goofy, Pluto, etc. Children tend to feel intimacy. Exercise children's logical analysis ability and mathematical thinking (such as recognizing graphics, numbers, etc.).

, an American cartoon starring Disney princesses. This show is very suitable for little girls with princess control, parents can accompany their daughters to watch together. Compared with other children's programs, speaks faster. If you watch it directly, it is difficult to understand, you can watch it several times.
Teletubbies Teletubbies
Suitable: 1-2 years old
The first time I saw Teletubbies, I thought how mentally retarded this is! Particularly low-age lines, repeated language, nothing in the plot...... but it is the ace cartoon of the British BBC, it is produced after investigating the interest patterns of thousands of children, and it is fully in line with the young babies Thinking characteristics.
blue little koala Penelope
is suitable for: 2-6 years old

In the process of trying everything she doesn't understand, she finds mistakes on her own and corrects them independently. This is also a way for children to gain wisdom. has a pure pronunciation, repetitive sentence structure (it is easier for children to remember), rich in daily language, moderate speaking speed, 5 minutes per episode.
Peppa Pig
Suitable for: 3-8 years old
The famous Peppa Pig needless to say! The favorite of kids all over the world. The speaking rate is moderate, each episode is 5 minutes, and the content involves daily life at home. The dialogue is relatively simple and repetitive. It is suitable for children who are just beginning to learn English. Mom and Dad can take their children to imitate the games or actions in the program to cultivate their children's interest in English.
Many mothers rely on Peppa Pig to trigger their children's interest in English! children like to learn from their family's "humming" voice when they finish talking, and they are silly when they hear it, haha. There are many imported picture books, sticker books, cardboard books, dolls... you can use them together.
Thomas & Friends

recommends to men who like machinery: "Bob the Builder" (Architectural), English sound; "Handy Manny" (hands-on ability), American sound; "Fireman Sam Fireman Sam" (fire safety), English sound.
Learning English through cartoons is only one aspect. What's more important is that cartoons contain many excellent qualities, principles and principles, but these rich connotations will not be presented in a special way. At this time, we need to be adults. Make calls, so don’t think that if you have a good cartoon, you can take the place of our parents.
cartoons, no matter how good and lively they are, they will not answer questions and cannot replace the explanations and explanations of their parents. When children are seeking knowledge, if they lack communication, questions, answers and expansion, they will become a single The inculcation of Xiang, this lack of thinking and discernment experience is not conducive to growth.
