According to the development of constitution
and intelligence in each period of baby’s development, things that parents do
are different.
Pay attention to baby’s reaction timely
Age
to apply: newborn babies
When children are born, they hope that
their parents can recognize them. Therefore, babies cry because they feel
hungry or urinate. In addition, the important reason is to attract parents’
notice.
Hence when babies begin to cry, the first
thing that parents should do is paying attention to them. After eliminating
reasons that can make uncomfortable such as being hungry, thirsty, hot, cold,
wet…, you should look their eyes gracefully, comfort and smile with them.

Set up suitable schedule for children

The second thing that parents should do is
setting up a schedule for children when they are 3-6 months old. Washing face,
lulling, changing diaper, making hygiene are hard works and they take place
every day to take care of babies. If these things are created into habit in
particular time, they will become simpler. Babies will feel safe if there is
particular schedule for every day.
The
second thing that parents should do is setting up a schedule for children when

Consequently due to characteristic, hobby
of babies as well as parents’ work and daily habit, you should set up daily
schedule for babies to assign work like: time for breakfast, going to bed, time
for playing… You should pay attention that you yourselves must do given
schedule, not babies.
Change the direction for children’s attention
Age
to apply: 6-24 months old
When babies know how to crawl and hold
things, parents often say: “Impossible” or “Stop”. Baby’s behavior in this
period can make parents worry and tired. However, this thing shows baby’s
curiosity to the world around.
If babies reach or hold some unpermitted
object, you can call their names, after than you can put your tongue out and
make smiling face or cause noise that cause smiling so that babies can pay
attention and they will forget object that they want to hold. This is a
suitable manner when you don’t want babies to do something instead of storming
at or criticizing their behaviors.
Explain for babies regularly
Age
to apply: 1-3 years old
In this period, children begin to
distinguish between correct and incorrect things. So, when you direct babies to
do something, you need to explain reason to help babies understand why doing
like that is better.
When
babies are 1-3 years old, children can distinguish between correct and
incorrect things.
You shouldn’t tell babies not to do this
thing, that thing; you should tell babies that how they should do. For example,
when babies use pen to draw on wall, the first thing is that you should keep
calm and don’t scream with them: “Impossible”, “Stop immediately”. After that,
you can say that babies draw well, but they shouldn’t draw on wall because this
thing can make wall dirty and advise them to draw on paper. And finally you
give babies white paper to help them practice to become a tiny painter.
