1. Let the child feel the time
Time is an abstract concept, and children often cannot grasp it concretely when it comes to cognition, and sometimes they get confused. Therefore, parents should be good at concretizing time, so that children can feel time.
Parents can communicate with their children about time in their daily lives, and teach their children to recognize time and order through some activities and events in daily life, such as "getting up in the morning and getting dressed", "going to bed at night and telling stories", etc.
Parents can also use clocks, watches and other tools to teach their children to recognize time and reading, so that children can perceive time concretely.
2. Establish a timetable
Creating a schedule is one of the effective ways to develop a child's sense of time. Parents can work with their children to create a daily schedule of activities, including waking up, eating, studying, playing, sleeping, etc.
Develop a sense of time by creating a schedule that allows children to understand the arrangement and order of time, and lets them know when to do things. At the same time, parents should also be careful not to overarrange their time, so that their children have enough free time and space.
3. Cultivate punctuality
Punctuality is a necessary habit for children to form a sense of time. Parents should cultivate their children's punctuality habits from an early age so that they can complete things on time.
For example, parents can stipulate that their children complete tasks such as homework and reading books within a certain period of time, and if their children can complete them on time, they can give appropriate rewards or encouragement. At the same time, parents should also pay attention to their punctuality habits and become role models for their children.
Fourth, use a variety of ways to teach children to recognize time.
Teaching children to know time is an important part of cultivating the concept of time. Parents can teach their children about time in a variety of ways, such as telling stories, watching cartoons, playing games, and so on. These methods can help children better understand the concept of time and improve their concept of time.
At the same time, parents can also make handmade clocks and draw clocks with their children to let their children understand the concept of time more deeply.
5. Let your child manage his or her own time.
Allowing children to manage their own time is one of the important ways to develop a sense of time. Parents can give their children a certain amount of autonomy and choice, allowing them to organize their own time, such as deciding when to do homework, when to play, and so on.
This can help children better manage their time and improve their self-management skills. At the same time, parents should also pay attention to supervising their children's self-management and give guidance and correction in a timely manner.
6. Pay attention to communication with children.
Communication is one of the important means to cultivate children's sense of time. Parents should often communicate with their children about their views and ideas about time, and understand their children's time concepts and needs.
Through communication, parents can better guide their children on how to manage their time, and at the same time, it can also strengthen the parent-child relationship. In communication, parents should respect their children's opinions and ideas and give them ample opportunities to express themselves.
In short, cultivating children's sense of time requires patience and careful guidance from parents. By allowing children to feel time, making schedules, developing punctuality habits, using a variety of ways to teach children to recognize time, and allowing children to manage their own time, etc., it can help children better control time and improve their self-management skills.
At the same time, parents should also pay attention to communication with their children to enhance the parent-child relationship. In the process of cultivating children's concept of time, parents should give their children enough free time and space, so that they can develop their abilities and interests in an all-round way.
