Research on the Development and Cultivation Path of Children’s Aesthetic Ability from the Perspective of Family and School Co-education
Home-based co-education is an important means to promote the overall development of children’s aesthetic abilities. It plays a crucial role in shaping children’s early aesthetic perception, stimulating their imagination and releasing their creativity. This article, from the perspective of home-based co-education, systematically elaborates on the development stages and characteristics of children’s aesthetic abilities; deeply analyzes the current cooperation status and prominent problems in aesthetic education between families and kindergartens; and constructs a collaborative cultivation path centered on concept transformation, rich activities, and an optimized environment. However, in the current context of home-based co-education, the cultivation of children’s aesthetic abilities still faces practical challenges such as weak cooperation awareness, monotonous educational methods, and insufficient environmental support. Based on this, this article proposes that parents should be transformed from “cooperators” to “co-builders,” and teachers should be transformed from “leaders” to “guiding collaborators.” Through life-oriented and game-based comprehensive activities and open, supportive material and psychological environments, the aesthetic awareness and creative ability of children should be jointly enhanced.
