What should I do if my child has a bad temper?

Babies have poor self-control and bad moods come easily, especially those who have always been spoiled by their parents or grandparents. They will have an outburst when things don’t go their way. Bad emotions are like "time bombs" lurking in babies' lives. Once detonated, some children will cry and make a fuss, and parents and friends will be unable to persuade them; some children will even throw things, leaving parents and friends helpless. So, what should we do if our child has a bad temper?

In fact, what ignites a child's bad mood are often the most insignificant things in the eyes of their parents, such as the mother forgets to buy toys for the baby, the father sends him to kindergarten late, etc. As long as the parents give a little guidance, the child's bad mood will slowly disappear.

How to detect the "time bomb" of bad emotions requires some tricks.

Trick 1: Music

Soft music can soothe your baby's emotions

Music has magical effects. It can soothe the baby's excited emotions and calm him down. When a child shows bad emotions, parents can turn on soft music at the right time and let the baby listen, and the child will slowly calm down. Of course, the choice of music by parents is very important at this time. They should choose classical pure music by composers such as Mozart and Schubert, and should not choose music with a strong sense of rhythm, otherwise it will cause the opposite effect.

If your child is accustomed to listening to soft and light music since childhood, he will have fewer bad emotions, and when he has bad emotions, soft music will have a better effect.

Rhythmic nursery rhymes can make babies happy

If parents listen to some rhythmic nursery rhymes with their children and dance along with them, the children will be in a good mood. Because these rhythmic nursery rhymes are generally written according to the rhythm and tempo that babies like, they are deeply loved by babies. While listening to music and dancing, parent-child communication is also taking place, and the babies will definitely be filled with joy. When a child is in a good mood, the chance of bad emotions "sneak attack" will certainly be smaller.

Trick 2: Animal toys

Talk to baby animals

In the eyes of children, all animal toys are alive and they are their good friends. Many children like to hug their favorite baby animals and whisper to them. When the baby is in a bad mood, parents can take advantage of this characteristic of the child, take one of the child’s favorite baby animals, and tell it about their unhappiness. After expressing their unhappiness, children's bad mood will gradually ease. If possible, parents should try to listen to their children's reasons to help them eliminate bad emotions from the root.

Using baby animals to transfer emotions

When children lose their temper, yell or throw toys around, parents can bring in baby animals as a "rescuer" and say to the children: "You are yelling, and the baby animals are very scared. They will not dare to be friends with this bad-tempered child in the future." The children will believe it, and in order not to lose these good friends, they will restrain their emotions. Using animal toys to transfer children's emotions like this is also the cuteness of young children.

Parents should not think about controlling their children, but should be more equal. They can also tell their children in advance that they are not allowed to shout loudly, use violence, or use dirty words, etc. If they violate these rules, they will be punished, such as reducing their pocket money, not being allowed to go to the park, etc. This can help children learn to control their emotions. Parents and friends should be patient and understand that this is not an easy matter.
