Your child needs you. Only in very simple ways has science proven:
Interact with your kids
1. You can play music suitable for children and sing along, dance. Listening to songs such as Old macdonald had a farm is not only fun but it also helps children develop motor skills, emotions, creativity, and intelligence in general. Playing music is even better: activating many different areas in both hemispheres of the brain.
2. Your child needs you to interact, talk to him. Besides feeling loved, this is a very simple way for children to develop language.
3. Reading books for children is a good way to spend time with your child: teach your children interesting things, and rely on it to talk, help children learn new words, encourage thinking, help children increase their ability to exercise Medium, and make reading habit so that children can learn by themselves.
4. You can move with your children. Just going out for a walk, encouraging kids to run is enough. Mobility is the way children develop their brains.
5. I need you to spend time with me, listening, caring, sensitive, showing love to my children. Feeling safe is the first factor for intelligence to develop. Hold your baby very much. Science shows that a simple but effective hug has many effects: reducing stress, boosting the immune system, increasing the sense of well-being, feeling safe and developing self-esteem.
Instead of teaching reading and focusing on school-based skills such as at age four and coming to age five, I teach the following:
Love animals and nature
I give her out when possible. Walk around the lake to show some animals, lotuses, plants, birds ... My house cat, so I let him play with cats, take care of cats.
I read and explained to her what the Earth was, how the plants grew, how the animals lived, why endangered species, plastic bags and how much harm the environment had. Only see the seals that are about to be eaten by the polar bears, as the baby has protested, wanting to protect the seals.
Be courteous and respect the people around you
Instead of just teaching me hello, I teach my children to respect everyone, whether they are babies or old people. I teach my children to thank them, excuse everyone, talk small when they are out, throw the waste in the right place, do not take the wrong things, queue when charging or wait to the toilet. I teach my child if he wants to ask for help, he must speak softly, full sentences.
When talking to others, do not use the phone or the electronic equipment. My family is also limited to using iPad for about an hour a day, and will not allow the use of a smart phone until he is older.
Learning self-reliance and responsibility
I encourage my child to do things he or she can do on his or her own, from simple things: walking on shoes, taking shoes, putting toys on, picking books, watering plants, picking up chopsticks, removing dirty clothes into the laundry basket
Love, share and accept
I encourage and explain to him why he should share with you or you. I do not always follow, but I do not blame it, but wait until she is calm to talk to her to help her analyze the situation.
Having children is also very beneficial for your baby. She has the opportunity to learn how to share everyday and help me when I ask. I help her understand if she is not perfect, I still love her, but that does not mean that I agree with him when she behaved unreasonable.
