How to educate a baby who is almost two years old

For children who are almost two years old, at this stage, not only their bodies are growing rapidly, but their intelligence is also growing rapidly. Babies at this age have particularly strong learning abilities and they will learn and imitate their parents' behaviors. In addition, the baby, who is almost two years old, has developed a little "rebellious" mentality at this moment. Parents need to pay great attention to their baby's education, and never ignore it just because the baby is too young.

The first thing is to learn to guide your children.

Parents should understand that children at the age of 2 especially need their parents' emotional support. Therefore, parents should not force their children to "not do something" or "must do something", but should give them some opportunities to choose. “For example, when giving children vitamin supplements, don’t simply order them to eat apples. Instead, put bananas, apples, oranges, kiwis and other fruits rich in vitamins in front of the children and let them choose for themselves.” If they choose apples and then change their minds, parents don’t have to worry, because this is the child learning how to make decisions.

The second is to give children respect.

You can exchange "conditions" with your children on an equal basis. Yan Qi gave an example, if a child insists on going out on a windy day but doesn’t want to wear a hat. At this time, parents can say to their children: "Mom and Dad have agreed to take you out, so shouldn't you also agree to wear a hat for us?" Giving children respect also teaches them to respect others, killing two birds with one stone.

The third is that parents must learn to compromise.

Parents are advised that if a child’s behavior is inconsistent with their wishes, but the child will not encounter danger or illness as a result, it is best to let the child make his or her own decisions, and there is no need for parents to interfere.

The fourth is to adopt story-telling education.

Many parents feel that communicating with such young children is completely useless because they simply cannot listen and do not understand what adults are saying. But have mom and dad ever thought about it? Maybe your idea is wrong. It’s not that the children don’t understand, but that we didn’t choose the right language. As parents, we can try to communicate with children in the same way they communicate, which may produce unexpected results. For example, we can guide children through storytelling, communicate with them, and we may get pleasant surprises in the end. At the same time, the development of the baby's brain is conducive to faster understanding and communication.
