“Give children toys that are powered by their imagination, not by batteries.”
It is essential for parents to learn about a child’s development, as children develop from a young age to old, they face different situations and feelings during this time period, they sometimes can be really reactive too, parents have to be trained to understand their feelings.
Parents are indeed the first teacher of the kid, but why don’t parents try to be the best teacher too, but understanding the requirements of children in the different time period is important to be the best teacher for own children. There are some main primary domains of a child’s development, which should be read and understood by each parent to be a coach and best trainer.
1) Physical development should be observed by parents, most parents who observe height, etc. Observing the brain is important, as it tells that is the child physically stable or not? The way the child reacts to thinks to tell his development level. Parents must provide a peaceful and healthy environment for children for their better physical development.
2) Avoid limiting children’s knowledge give them exposure to the right things. We call it cognitive development and intellectual development which is really important and it focuses on the way changes in the brain occur related to how children think and learn as they grow.
“Play is the shortest route between children and their creative calling.”
3) One of the most important development is the development of language which comes from home. Now at this early age when kids are learning and trying to speak words incorrectly, so parents should not repeat them incorrectly in front of kids, as they will grasp the wrong pronunciation and will learn words in the wrong way.
“Children are not things to be molded, but are people to be unfolded.” |
Encourage children to discuss their ideas and trust parents.
