“Cultural and creative stationery” should not blindly pursue creativity

No matter how far you go, you should never forget where you start from. The same is true of cultural and creative stationery. We should not only pursue creativity but neglect the function of stationery. Cultural and creative stationery is questioned because it excessively highlights the function of “play”. Whether it is the “shake pen” and “twist egg eraser” in various stationery stores around the school, or the “Wisdom and fun puzzle pencil box” and “stationery blind box” which are very popular on the Internet platform, the attribute of “play” has been continuously enlarged, while the function of “use” has been weakened.

With a strong curiosity, students will inevitably be indulged in the complex, colorful and flashy stationery, which will also lead to a series of problems. For example, it will distract students’ attention, they can’t concentrate on their study; Some brightly colored stationery often become more chemical, long-term use, will cause certain harm to students’ body; Cultural and creative stationery is more expensive than ordinary stationery, which easily causes the psychology of keeping up with the joneses.

Both the education department and parents should make the standard of stationery simple and simple. On the one hand, parents should guide their children to view stationery correctly and form a basic judgment that stationery should be based on its use value. On the other hand, education departments and schools should also strengthen guidance and advocate the use of simple stationery to eliminate the psychology of comparing with others.
