Are fairy tales good for children?

Answer 1

Tales teach the main principal: what is the difference between good and evil, good deed deserves its good end etc. they teach to identify the good things to children and of course the bad as well.

Not only this but at a young age, children will learn speech skills when you read them books that are easy enough to understand.

Answer 2

Yes, Fairy Tales can be beneficial for children as they often teach important morals and values, stimulate imagination, and can help children develop critical thinking skills. However, it's also important for parents to discuss the stories with their children to clarify any confusing or problematic themes.

Answer 3

When I was a kid I hated them, but loved Science Fiction. There are a number of problems with Fairy tales, problems are handled a little too neatly and patted-down. at times Black Magic and other supernatural material is seen in a favorable light- look at the Mermaid. in the original story the Sea Witch was not really an evil character but more a mentor and advisor- female who wanted to help the Mermaid reach the outside world- there are implied angles of Parental defiance ( in the movie it is full-fledged family argument) Others deal with running away from home ( Oz), a good many have violence where it could have been avoided, and so on. can"t say yes or know.

Answer 4

It would depend on the child, but some think hard on the stories behind fables and learn from the mistakes the characters had made. Fables generally end with a moral, and that moral summarizes the lesson behind the story; that is what most children look for when understanding the story. Whether or not they learn from the lesson is up to the children.
