Often young parents have no idea how to properly educate their child, whose age has reached 1 year. All children at the age of 11-12 months are at a turning point - the "crisis of the first year of life". The child during this period manifests its independence, often arranges hysterics, begins to cry, ceases to obey parents when the latter give advice or ask for something.
Behavior of the child throughout the second year of life requires constant monitoring of the adult, because it is not yet stable and needs to be normalized. Therefore, the parent at this time should give the child as much time as possible in order to keep the child in a good mood.
Education of children at this age is divided into the following sections:
Education of cultural and hygienic habits
This includes washing, dressing, sleeping, eating, and looking.
Education of the culture of activity
This includes observance of order, playing skills with different toys, a mode, careful attitude to things and toys, learning to understand the requirements of an adult, acquiring initial skills of work.
Educating a culture of communication
This includes not only communication with children, peers, but also with adults.
The child has learned to walk, that's why he feels himself independent. This fact should be understood by all parents. A child walks around the house wherever he likes, pulls out attractive and bright objects that interest him, often tries them not only for gentleness, but also for taste. By forbidding the child to go somewhere, take some fragile items and / or things, you make him nervous and angry. If you do not want a crystal vase, fragile figurines, perfumes, shadows, detergents, cosmetics (and other things) to fall into the hands of the child, take them away from him. Remove from the curious child on the upper shelves or in another safe place all the beating and dangerous objects. Let the child quietly walk through the rooms without the mother's shouting: "this can not be touched."
Walking on the street should also not take place under constant pulling, bans on children's pranks. All children like to mess around and play in the sandbox; moreover, they like to shower, they need to touch everything with their hands, so why should a child be forbidden to do what is interesting to him?
There is nothing wrong with the child hugging and / or touching another child. Intervention of the mother (well, or dad) is required when the child is trying to hurt and / or hit another child. In this case, immediate action must be taken to suppress the child's actions. Constantly explain to the child what you can do, and what not, how you should behave at home, in the street, in the sandbox. In this case, the tone of the mother should be soft and loving, and not ordering and imperative.
If the information is presented in the form of a game and with love, then the child will perceive it. For example, a child can easily be put into bed, if doing it in a playful way: let the child be a chanterelle (rabbit), and the crib will be a fox-hole (rabbits). Playing a child not only can be laid to sleep, but also to feed, to bathe.
You can not shout at the child, but you can not go on hysterics or shouting. You have to be demanding and consistent, but not cruel. Everything should be in moderation.
The child cries, does not want to go to bed, does not want to dress? Then get on your knees to catch up with the growth of the child and calmly explain to the child that it needs to be done. It is not worth it in this case to shout at the child and punish him. If you succumb to hysterics and cry your child, then he will understand this, and will seek his tears and hysterics always.
Often, parents demand from their child what they do not observe themselves. For example, they teach the child to wash their hands every time after the street, but do not wash themselves. How, in this case, will the child gladly wash his hands if parents do not? In everything, show the child an example, and then demand from him: fold neatly along with the child's clothes, collect scattered toys in the box.
Children at one-year age in all imitate their parents, try to imitate their style of behavior, conversation. That's why parents for their child should be a good example.
