幼儿的创造教育是依据创造学的原理,通过一定的教育途径,进行创造思维训练,开发幼儿创造力的教育,是当代教育思潮之一。 在幼儿期,幼儿的脑发育日趋完善,已具有与幼儿发展水平相适应的创造潜力。心理学研究表明,4岁半的幼儿已萌发了创造的要求与行动。 创造性思维是创造力的核心和灵魂。美国心理学家马斯洛认为,创造力分为两种:特殊才能的创造力和自我实现的创造力。幼儿的创造力属于后者。在一定条件下,自我实现的创造力会向特殊才能的创造力方向发展。发展幼儿自我实现的创造力与发展幼儿创造思维是密切相关的。 The creation education of young children is based on the principle of creation science and through some education ways, it is one of the current educational thoughts to create thinking training and develop children’s creative education. In early childhood, children’s brain development is becoming more and more perfect, and has the potential to adapt to the level of child development. Psychological studies show that 4 and a half years old children have germinated the requirements and actions created. Creative thinking is the core and soul of creativity. Maslow, American psychologist believes that there are two types of creativity: the creativity of special talents and the creativity of self-realization. Young children’s creativity belongs to the latter. Under certain conditions, the self-actualizing creativity will develop toward the creativity of special talents. The development of children’s self-realization of creativity and development of children to create thinking are closely related.
