The ability to dress independently will come in handy for a baby in kindergarten and can greatly facilitate mom's life.
Instructions
Step 1
You need to teach your baby how to dress step by step. First of all, provide your child with access to their clothing. Let him get acquainted with wardrobe items, try to put them on. Some mothers do not allow the baby to take clothes out of the closet, and in vain. Let then you have to clean up after the child, but he will take the first steps towards the ability to dress independently.
Step 2
Be patient and don't interfere when your child tries to put on something. Of course, the first attempts may be unsuccessful. But you don't need to help the baby right away. The main thing for him is independent practice. Do not take away the clothes of other family members from the child. Trying on Dad's shorts or Mom's T-shirt can be so much fun. And through the game and a good mood, study goes much faster.
Step 3
Try to choose the most comfortable things for your baby. The many intricate fasteners on the clothes will make it difficult for a child to dress on their own.
Step 4
If your toddler is not yet showing interest in the dressing and dressing process, create a game that will inspire your child. For example, you can greet your child by the handle that emerged from the sleeve of the sweater.
Step 5
Improve your child's fine motor skills to help them cope with the dressing process. Lacing, tactile boards, dolls will help you with this. When you dress your baby yourself, talk over your every action and praise if he takes the initiative and helps you.
Step 6
Some moms complain that their kids don't like to get dressed. Perhaps babies just want to do it on their own. Give your son or daughter freedom and see what the result will be. Remember, the period when a child seeks to do everything on his own begins at about 2 years old.
