The child knows the meaning of the words "I" and "we" at the age of 3. "We" initially - he and parents, later - he and peers. The kid becomes inquisitive, tries to get to know everyone around him, he can describe all his feelings and experiences with words and gestures. Now he can play completely independently without the constant supervision of adults.
Many people notice that even in a loving and friendly family, a child prefers one of the parents. If one of the parents does not have enough time during the day to communicate with the child, devote it in the evening before going to bed: read a fairy tale, ask what happened today. If this is not done, children become restless and moody to attract the attention of adults. Parents should be willing and able to find half an hour to communicate with their children.
The most common fears between the ages of 3-5 are confined spaces, loneliness and darkness. The main task for parents during this period is to prevent the emergence of fears. It is worth spending more time with the child, reassuring him in time and explaining that there is nothing to be afraid of.
Sometimes a child begins to do everything the way he wants to, stubborn, does not listen to adults. By his behavior, he shows that he is no longer a little helpless kid, but a person who has a certain opinion. Of course, parents do not need to prove their innocence by shouting, but on the contrary, it is enough to tell (not always the truth) what can happen after this or that action. The main thing is not to overdo it, so that "babayka" is not added to the child's fears. You can allow in practice to check the "correctness" of the child, for example, let him touch a hot kettle or iron (within reasonable limits, of course). The child, after making sure that you are telling the truth, will be more willing to listen to your words and opinions.
Sometimes a kid who behaves well, loves to play with his mother and listen to fairy tales, turns into an uncontrollable bully: he beats his mother, throws toys and categorically refuses to obey. It is necessary to immediately suppress such behavior, because in a few years it will be too late.
If a child utters swear words, curses, think about where he got them from. You may need to monitor the speech yourself. Explain that it is not customary in your family to say that.
Remember! The main point in upbringing is that children do not notice that they are being brought up.
