Many parents are sensitive to the skills of their baby. But the lack of some skill that a peer of the child possesses is not a reason for frustration. Every child is unique, do not take the description of age skills as a “standard of quality”.
Instructions
Step 1
By the age of two, boys reach a height of 83-93 cm, and girls - 80-90 cm. The muscles and bones of the child are already strong enough. He walks quickly, runs, jumps and even knows how to go down, climb stairs. At this age, the kid loves active ball games, dancing to music and cycling. Provide your beloved child with more space. If this is not possible in a small apartment, try to walk more often.
Step 2
Performing some actions, the child is happy if adults praise him. In case of an unsuccessful attempt, he frowns, shows displeasure. At this age, stubbornness in character is manifested: the baby insists on his own, demands to fulfill his desire. In case of refusal, he may start to act up, hysterical. A two-year-old child experiences joy when communicating with familiar people, looks into the eyes, trying to catch a glance. The appearance of a stranger is perceived with caution, many children hide behind their parents.
Step 3
A toddler at the age of two knows how to hold a pencil, draws the first pictures. He begins to understand the volume and shape of figures, can, after an example, reassemble the matryoshka and the pyramid. Many children distinguish colors, can show the correct option after saying it out loud. Also, the child understands the meaning of the words "heavy", "light", "hard", "soft", "warm", "cold".
Step 4
Child development allows you to perform three consecutive actions on request, for example, take, bring, put. The kid understands short stories and willingly answers questions: how he spent the time, how he feels, etc. Children's vocabulary consists of 100-200 words. However, in a conversation, the child operates with short sentences consisting of two or three words. A two-year-old baby understands what is good and bad, shows compassion and pity for people, tries to calm down a loved one if he is in pain.
Step 5
Two years is the age when children begin to learn how to dress independently. They pull on their socks, try to tie their shoelaces. Many children are already confidently using the potty, controlling their needs. A two-year-old baby confidently holds a spoon and eats carefully, knows how to wash and wash his hands. At this age, the baby tries to help parents clean up order, wash dishes, etc.
Step 6
Standard skills for a two-year-old include cause and effect (the kettle is hot because it was on the stove), analogies (since the kettle is hot, the pot is on the stove too). The kid begins to more carefully explore new objects, he realizes that it may be unsafe.
