With the continuous adjustment and evolution of international situation,countries around the world have issued some policies to promote the development of innovative society,so creativity has become a hot topic in education research field.Education is the main way to deliver talents to the society.At present,we should deepen the education reform comprehensively,promote the creative education and improve the quality of education.The goal is to train creative talents.The core of cultivating creative talents is developing creative education.Early childhood is the Enlightenment period of creative education.In this period,children’s thinking has not been restricted,and protecting and stimulating children’s imagination,curiosity and exploration desire is of great significance to the development of children’s creative thinking and the formation of creative personality.The guide for study and development of 3-6-year-old children issued by China points out that the goal of art education is to feel and appreciate,express and create.As one of the main forms of art education in early childhood,it still needs to be studied whether rhythmic activity has a positive impact on the development of children’s creative thinking.Educational experiment,observation method and interview method were used in this study,and 63 5-6-year-old children from a kindergarten in Xi’an as the experimental objects whom were divided into experimental class(32 children)and control class(31 children).The experimental class was conducted a semester of rhythmic activity intervention and the control class carried out normal teaching activities.Moreover,scientific measuring tools were used before and after the experiment for measuring that the changes of children’s creative thinking in experimental class and control class before and after rhythm activities.The study results are as follows:(1)There was no significant difference in the children’s creative thinking dimensions between the experimental class and the control class in the pre-test.Through experimental intervention,the whole level and every dimension of experimental class children’s creative thinking had been improved,and it differed from the control class.(2)Through experimental intervention,the pre-test results and post-test results in the experimental class children showed that the children creative thinking the in this class has been significantly improved.In the graph test,the flexibility of children’s thinking did not reach the statistical significance,but it was improved compared with the previous experiment,and it was significantly improved the other two dimensions.In the speech test,the children’s creative thinking in three dimensions were significantly improved.(3)Comparing the results of the pre-test of the control class children,it was found that although the average score of the children in the control class has increased,there is no significant difference compared with that before the experiment.(4)Comparing the results of the pre-test and post-test of boys and girls in the experimental class,there was no gender difference in children’s creative thinking.According to the research results,the following teaching suggestions were put forward to teachers:(1)To cultivate children’s creative thinking,teachers should first understand the connotation of children’s creative thinking,encourage children’s creative expression,respect individual differences,and do not evaluate children’s creative performance with same standards.(2)To create a good rhythm activity atmosphere,teachers should stimulate children’s interest and motivation in learning with new and different items in physical environment,and create a safe,happy and creative atmosphere in emotional atmosphere.This will be applied to stimulate children’s creative thinking and creative performance in rhythm activities.(3)Teachers should scientifically develop rhythmic activities,enrich teaching styles and teaching strategies.Based on this,they should explore ways to cultivate children’s creative thinking in rhythmic activities.(4)Teachers should strengthen learning through themselves,understand the idea of education dance,and improve teaching skills.At the same time,they should systematically study the theory of learning thinking teaching for improving their own teaching methods,which is a better way to training children’s creative thinking.
