Problem: gnawing fingernails, sucking a finger
Learning games
"Kill the microbe - earn a prize." It will never be possible to fight against the peculiarities of one's behavior in preschool children. But with harmful monsters - with great pleasure! Make a funny bright poster - a kind of map of your hero's battles. For example, for one day, spent without bitten nails, a child can paint over with black paint a couple of terrible monster-germs. If you live at the dacha, posters can be attached to a tree and washed off "horror" with a water pistol. You can draw gold medals - for every day, in which none of the fingers are hurt.
To the "battle" is not boring, agree with the baby, how many virtual medals can he exchange for a real prize, for example a new toy or a trip to an amusement park.
"Make friends with your finger." After all, friends do not gnaw! Think of each finger a name, character, favorite activities. Build for the "brothers" house, "give" each a typewriter. For those of you who are most often in your mouth, it is worth sewing a bright panamka and skirt (shirt). For older children, you can beat the story of a fairy tale about the Boy-with-finger or the dwarfs. For babies any finger-type nursery rhymes will do.
"Day of beautiful hands." Play in the beauty salon, and even better - go to the real salon. Let the baby do a manicure (girls can cover their nails with baby lacquer). The child will feel sorry for spoiling such beauty.
"Deceive the habit." "Observe in what situation the child most often puts his hands in his mouth. Maybe this happens at the peak of the experiences for the fate of the hero cartoon? In such moments, we quickly put something on the offspring that can be safely crushed, twisted, rolled (Rubik's cube, a small bright ball, etc.). Hands will be occupied, and the habit will gradually be replaced. Thus, you will learn how to wean your child from bad habits.
Problem: throwing toys
Learning games
"Useful spreading". "Do not try to make the child clean up after himself. Better place bright colored boxes (baskets) for bears, balls and other unbreakable toys. Every evening, together, clean the nursery, arranging a family match in the marking of the throwing of toys. The one who "plans" most of the items in his place, is rewarded with the title of a well-aimed shooter and a small prize.
"The night Watch". Little adore sorting everything in the world according to color, size, etc. Draw together bright tags - reminders and paste them on boxes and boxes with baby toys. A sign with a typewriter - on a toy garage, a portrait of a beloved hare - on a basket. In the evening hand the box "for the lost" and ask them to "arrest" all the animals that are out of place at such a late hour. The task will be performed with delight!
"Neat" fairy tales. Games from the "two in one" series: they allow you to combine cleaning and evening fairy-tale. It's terribly boring to put things in order at the end of the day, when the games are over and it's time to go to bed. But, as interesting to listen to, and together with my mother play a story about three brave dolls, who went to walk to the Great Cupboard; about the cars that arranged a high-speed rally to the "garage" - boxes; and about the multi-colored details of the designer who argued which one of them will quickly form into the highest tower ... After some time cleaning will become for the kid a usual ritual that you want to repeat every night.
"Toys are offended." Do not threaten: "I'll throw out your designer!" "In response, the child will develop an aversion to cleaning or he will get used to skipping your remarks. A small person should know about the negative consequences of their actions. When a son or daughter with tears asks to find a doll or soldier, "buried" under a pile of toys not disassembled, calmly explain that the doll was offended and left. For a day or two. Usually this time is enough for the child to bring his treasures in order and the doll "returned."
Problem: can not be torn from the TV
Learning games
"The TV is moving." Devoted to psychological research, children are more drawn to the TV if it occupies an "honorable" place, for example, in the center of the room. Together with the baby, organize the "move" of the TV to a new place of residence, less honorable. But the books, on the contrary, should move from the bookcase to the low open shelves.
"Your ticket?" Ask the pediatrician how much time a day your child can spend at the TV (the doctor will take into account the age and health condition of the baby), and how to wean the child from bad habits. Together with the baby make beautiful tickets to the home theater. For example, if the allowable time is half an hour, you can make three tickets for a 10-minute session. Let the viewer himself choose how he wants to spend his tickets: for example, to watch a cartoon in the morning, a cartoon for lunch and "Good night, kids" in the evening. You should do the same for yourself - so that the child does not feel hurt. Pedanticism will come to your aid, to which the children are inclined. After some time, the child will begin to meticulously watch, so that neither mother nor he himself goes "to the cinema" without a ticket.
"TV on the diet." Do not try to shove a little extra teaspoon "under the TV." "The habit of getting to the blue screen receives a positive reinforcement in the form of taste sensations and mother's attention. After this, it is practically impossible to sit the child at the table without a cartoon. " Call the "doctor" to the TV. Together with the child, "inspect" the TV, listen to it with a toy stethoscope and prescribe "treatment": a week of a strict diet. This time is usually enough for the child to get used to the network without a "background".
"Make your cartoon." Buy coloring pages with sketches from cartoons and glue from them your own "movie" with a new storyline. Make a large screen of cardboard and use it as a sienna for puppet shows. Invite your child to act as a TV presenter. Just do not try to "openly" compete with the TV. Reducing the time of watching TV at the expense of other activities should go unnoticed, otherwise wait for the reverse reaction.
