Like the little boy in the short film, most young children in reality are in a state of hazy understanding of the world and learn from adults. When he was on the boat at the beginning, the little boy learned from his father to touch his nose and his grandfather to pick his ears, but it can also be seen that father and grandfather have educational conflicts. Because everyone is unique, the one who wears the brim down, touches the nose, and sweeps with the wide broom is the father, and the one who puts the brim up, picks out the ears, and sweeps with the short broom is the grandfather. The little boy also belongs to himself. If you can think of breaking the stars with a hammer, it is a little boy. If you can think that the short broom is the same as grandpa's beard, and the wide broom is the same as father's beard, it is also a little boy. From the ignorance of the beginning to the end, the little boy has his own ideas, which is exactly what young children need in reality, independent of parents, independent thinking, and unique self. Most adults constrain young children according to their own wishes and thoughts, just like putting a hat on a little boy and letting the little boy sweep the floor with his own broom in the film, ignoring what the child wants and wants to do. So this short film is not only suitable for young children, but also for parents.
This short film is suitable for kindergarten children for more than this reason. The character style and plot concept of the film are very consistent with the characteristics of Pixar animation, which is novel and philosophical. The music at the beginning is quiet and peaceful, making people feel immersed in the scene. There is no dialogue in the whole film, and children can understand the plot only through animation. Before the age of six, most children were curious about the moon but did not understand it. This film uses the way full of twinkling stars to explain why the moon is bright, and also uses the protagonist sweeping the floor to tell them that the moon is cloudy and full. Although there is no science in the eyes of adults, he retains the gravitational force of the moon and the appearance of the moon's bare craters. For children of this age, they need to be full of imagination and curiosity about the unknown. Present the world beautifully, and guide the children to say: let me come.
As an adult, what else can this short story bring? I think it should be infinite innocence and hope. The environment in the short film is pure, without any superfluous distractions, which makes people feel pure inside. Different from modern society, the expression of the moon is full of imagination and childishness. As an adult, I have gradually lost this childlike interest. In my cognition, the moon is the moon. There are no beautiful myths and legends, no twinkling stars, only sand and craters, and it is difficult to say like a child: let me come. But this short film brought a simple, innocent and beautiful imagination to some adult audiences.
I hope that whether as a child, a parent, or an adult, I can maintain my own unique innocence, like a little boy.
