导语:送人玫瑰,手有余香。帮助别人就是帮助自己。如果孩子从小就开始做志愿者工作,那么他会从中受益良多!
If volunteering begins at an early age,it can become part of a child’s life—something he or she may just expect and want to do.It can teach them:
A sense of responsibility1.By volunteering,children learn how to be on time for a job,do their best,and be proud of the results.And they also learn that,in the end,they are responsible for the well-being2 of their whole community.
The knowledge that one person can make a difference.A wonderful message for a child is that he or she is important enough to have an effect on someone or something else.
The benefit of sacrifice3.By giving up a toy to a less fortunate child,a child learns that it is good to sacrifice sometimes.Cutting back on playing time to help clean up a street tells kids that there are important things other than ourselves and our needs.
Tolerance.Working in community service can bring kids and teens in touch with people of different backgrounds,abilities,ages,and education.They will likely find that even the most diverse4 people can be united by common values.
Job munity service can help young people decide on their future careers.Learning to work as a team member,taking on leadership roles,setting project goals—these are all skills that can be learned by volunteering and will serve a child well in the future career.
How to fill free time wisely.If a child is not interested in traditional after-school activities,community service can be a wonderful choice.
译文:
如果在很小的时候就开始做志愿者工作,那么它能成为孩子生活的一部分——他/她期待和想做的事情。志愿者工作能教会他们:
责任感。通过做志愿者工作,孩子们学会怎样按时工作、竭尽全力并且为结果自豪。他们也能学到:最终他们对整个社区的幸福负有责任。
知道一个人能有所作为。对孩子来说很好的信息是:他(她)非常重要,足以对其他人或事情有影响。
奉献的好处。通过把玩具送给一个不幸的孩子,孩子能学到:有时候奉献是好的。减少玩的时间来帮助打扫街道能告诉孩子:除了我们自己和我们的需要以外,还有重要的事情。
容忍。在社区服务处工作可以让孩子和青少年与不同背景、能力、年龄和教育程度的人接触。他们很可能发现即使差异非常大的人们也可以被共同的价值观团结到一起。
工作技能。社区服务能帮助年轻人决定他们未来的职业。学习作为一个团队成员去工作,承担领导角色,设立项目目标——这些都是能从志愿者工作中学到的所有技能,并很好地服务于孩子未来的职业。
科学规划空闲时间。如果孩子对传统的课外活动不感兴趣,那么社区服务可能是一个不错的选择。
