Key words: fairy tales, stories, imagination, morals, sayings, false sense of reality, movie
business.
Stories are Useful
Fairy Tales for sure motivate our imagination, but can sometimes give us a false sense of
reality while incorporating realistic scenarios. This is the main reason why some parents choose
not to read them to their children. As an adult, I wanted to go beyond the surface of fairy tales
and find out what their role may be in our children’s education and social development. All fairy
tales talk about relationships and people, and the negative and positive interactions between
them. I decided to do my research on this theme because I think even the worst stories can
be used as tools for teaching.Many believe fairy tales were told by word of mouth from one
generation to the next. The main purpose of the stories was to teach a moral, which is kind of
the focus they should still have today. Fairy tales originally were created for various readers of
all ages. In 2014, fairy tales are mainly famous thanks to Disney’s astonishing movie business.
The movies we have watched in recent years are mainly adaptations from their original versions.
Some stories in their original form may have had a dark side to them which to parents many
may be disturbing. whether you agree or not, fairy tales can motivate a child’s curiosity and
imagination
How can fairy tales help parents and children?
parents are skeptical about fairy tales because the content in many of them is contradicting or
confusing. In recent years we have also seen a shift in the way fairy tales are written; some seem
to have more sad and depressive endings. The message of the authors is probably aimed towards
“reality”. Is “reality” always the best way? Our perception of fairy tales can change as we look
beyond assumptions. we must remember that our interpretation of fairy tales, as adults, is very
different from children. Child psychologist bruno bettelheim suggests: “Adult interpretations,
as correct as they may be, rob the child of the opportunity to feel that he, on his own, through
repeated hearing and ruminating about the story, has coped successfully with a difficult situation.
The parents have the role of using these stories to make their children aware of those things they
may not understand and help them cope with their inner troubles.
How can fairy tales help parents and children? It is important for our children to have a good
foundation early on. Reading to them as early as possible can increase their interests in reading
and other subjects as well. “If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales.
If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales” Albert Einstein once said.
Though today many parents are aware of the importance of reading. but not only can fairy tales
open up a desire for reading, but they can also be a tool to help children cope with emotional and
social issues. In her article 5 Reasons Why Fairy Tales are good for Children, Saoirse Docherty
says: “whether it’s for indirect moral lessons, improving their imaginations or because your
child can’t put that book down reading fairy tales should be encouraged.” Making sure you read
the stories with your child will help deepen their connection with you.
psychological benefits of Fairy Tales
The psychological benefits of fairy tales for children may be many. These benefits vary from
child to child, and we must not only depend on fairy tales as the only tool. To quote bettelheim
once more, he believes that: “while it entertains the child, the fairy tale enlightens him about
himself, and fosters personality development”. A child may have many feelings repressed that he
may not understand and that is where the fairy tales come in to help. The stories have conflicts
the child can identify himself with it, and the solution is also within the story. Also, he believed
fairy tales can help a child cope with those emotions and fears in a healthy way for the time
