The most important factor affecting the child's health is the correct organization of the regime. For a baby, the regime is the basis of education. The regime of the day in a child should be organized, based on its individual characteristics and depends, in part, on the age of the baby. Let's see what the child needs for the regime and how to teach the child to the regime.
Why does the child need a mode
First of all, it should be noted that information for the organization of the regime is only advisory in nature and certain strict standards and norms do not exist. The regime is considered optimal if the time of feeding, holding a toilet, sleeping with the needs of the baby at the moment coincide. After all, children are growing and the daily regime is changing.
Proceeding from this, the abrupt changes in the regime are quite hard to bear by the kids. To transfer a child to another age regime, you need to act gradually so as not to cause negative emotions. A good mood of the baby will testify to the correctness of such a translation. In addition to age, it is necessary to take into account the individuality of the baby, the state of his health.
Observance of the baby by a certain regime accustoms him to organization. He will later be more easily adapted to the kindergarten. In addition, the regime greatly facilitates the life of the child and parents.
If it is not observed, the child may have health problems. The child becomes capricious, whiny, irritable. With frequent worsening of mood, which is associated with lack of sleep, overfatigue, the development of neuropsychic activity is disrupted. There are difficulties in the formation of neatness, hygienic skills.
How to teach a baby to a certain regime
Consider the regime of children from one year to one and a half. At this age the child should sleep in the afternoon two times. The first daytime sleep is up to 2.5 hours, the second - up to 1.5 hours. Prepare the baby to sleep should be in advance (washing, stopping active and noisy games). It is necessary to teach the baby to a certain regime, to put the child at the same time. Over time, the child develops a reflex for the time and "in speed", the baby himself falls asleep and wakes up at the right time. It is necessary to know that it is impossible to awaken a child when the sleep mode is already established, since this affects his mood. During the summer, a child's nighttime sleep can be shortened to prolong daytime sleep. In summer, lay the baby for the night after the usual.
To accustom a child to a diet at this age, you need to know that the food should be four meals a day. It's breakfast, lunch, after lunch and dinner. The regime is constructed in such a way that the crumb is awake after feeding, and then sleeps. It is necessary to ensure that feeding is at one time of day. The baby should also gradually develop a reflex and the children's body will itself require food at a certain time. Do not arrange when feeding the game (spoon-airplane, etc.). This enters into the habit of the child, which in kindergarten will become a hindrance later, because other people will not so feed your child.
The waking period of a child at this age should not exceed five hours per day. The shortening of sleep and the duration of the waking period are undesirable. This can lead to overwork of the nervous system and impaired behavior of the baby. Time of wakefulness includes games, walks, water procedures. Important for the child is the organization of walks twice a day in the fresh air. It is good to walk in the street before lunch and after a snack. The duration of walks should be at least 1.5 hours. It's good to do the water procedures with the baby (general wiping) before lunch. The child will gradually ask for walks and at the same time his mood will be fine.
At this age, it is very important to educate the child's cultural and hygienic skills. Before eating, wash your hands, learn to eat with a spoon. After all for him, independence is very important. To accustom your child to the regime of the day, the most important thing is to observe gradualness. It is not necessary to deviate from the time regime. A certain action must be taken at a certain time. In the child's body, certain reflexes (one wants to sleep, walk, eat, etc.) are already being developed by this or that time. If the parents do everything correctly, then it will not be difficult to accustom the kid to the regime.
