Habit is a common way of behaving and is when a person does things in a regular and repetitive way. What seems difficult to others is not difficult for those who have developed the habit, and it can be done naturally.
Cultivate children's character before the age of 3, cultivate children's behavior habits at the age of 3-6, parents hope that children can develop good living habits and learning habits, so that children can benefit for life, but now children because of the old people's pampering, parents doting and other factors, resulting in many children are very selfish, many things do not go their own way to start playing sex.
If you want to give your child a good character and habits, especially in theEarly childhoodIt is a key stage in the formation of children's habitsHelping children develop good habits at this stage is of great significance to their future growth and development.
So, how can you help your child develop good habits from an early age?Here are a few suggestions for you to learn from.
1. Parents should teach by example.
The most important point for the formation of children's good habits is that parents should teach them by word and deed to help them form internal motivation. Teaching by example is to form an atmosphere for children, because children learn through imitation and absorption, and every behavior and habit of adults, children will naturally imitate, and over time it will become a habit.
Example: I am a preschool mother, and I have rules, plans, and principles for many things at homeI will remind my child of the toys and books she has playedWhen you're done with it, return it to where it belongsAt first, the used things are returned in front of the child, and then reminded and repeated the previous actions each time (you can also use games to involve the child in cleaning up the toys together). It doesn't matter if the child doesn't give feedback right away, and suddenly one day she finds that she has quietly "sent home" the toys she has played.
I usually do chores in front of my children, such as sweeping, mopping, tidying up, etc., and at the same time, I also involve my children, and I never feel that my children are doing me a disservice or causing troubleGive him proper guidance here to know what I am doing and why I am doing it, and to guide him positively.
Key points: Don't be a nagging parent, do more demonstrations, talk less nonsense, and insist on repetition;Every one of your behaviors will be remembered in the child's brain, and the child will play and learn, and naturally form a habit. At this time, parents should respond appropriately to their children's behavior, giving praise and encouragement.
2. Set goals for cultivating good habits in children.
When cultivating good habits in children, parents should set clear, specific, and relatively small goals.
For example, if we want our child to develop the habit of hygiene, we require him to wash his hands, face, teeth, bath, etc., and if he asks too much for his child's habits, the child will find it difficult to get used to it and is unwilling to do it. We might as well go it another way, such as:Tell the story of the picture bookTell your child why you want to do it, and you can also develop your child's reading habits, so that your child is more receptive and easier to develop habits. If you force it, your child will also be disgusted and unmotivated, and will not be willing to do it.
Important: Parents should also lead by exampleTo develop the habit of hygiene, we must let the child accept it naturally and obtain the child's approval, and the child cannot be unilaterally forced to complete it.
3. Strengthen children's motivation to stick to habits.
After setting a good habit goal, parents should also give their children some encouragement or rewards to strengthen their motivation to stick to the habit. In the process of cultivating children's habits, we:Don't criticize, blame, and force too muchInstead, we should give positive guidance and encouragement to the child, or set some reward system to strengthen the child's positive behavior.
For example, we want to ask children to wash their hands before eating. Then, reminding children to wash their hands before meals can be guided by singing hand-washing nursery rhymes and hand-washing games, and after doing it, timely affirmation, praise, encouragement and appreciation can be given to strengthen children's hand-washing behavior, so that children can find a sense of achievement.
4. Cooperation of family members.
If there is a disagreement between family members about attitudes and opinions, it will make the child feel that there is a hole to exploit, and the child will not have the motivation to persevere. For example, parents are trying to cultivate a habit in their children, but grandparents say "he's still a child, don't take it so seriously, it's okay if you don't do it", etc. In this way, the child will naturally not persevere, and the cultivation of good habits will be abandoned halfway.
So,Family members must work togetherAt the same time, families and kindergartens can also form a synergy. For example, parents can tell the teacher, "The child has recently developed a good habit and has made great progress, so he can show it in the class", the teacher should give the child some encouragement and praise after the child shows, so that the child can find a sense of achievement, and at the same time, her behavior is affirmed and praised by everyone, which can also increase the child's self-confidence, and he will be more motivated to persevere.
In short, the cultivation of children's good habits requires parents to create a good atmosphere of teaching by word and deed, and decompose the goals into specific and clear definitions, and at the same time form a joint force within and outside the family, and constantly encourage children to persevere, children will naturally gain a sense of achievement, and his behavioral habits will become stable and lasting, so that a good habit will naturally be cultivated.
