Sometimes a person has an irresistible desire to be alone with himself. Quietly have a cup of tea, sit at the computer for at least half an hour, watch your favorite show. But if you are a mother of a 2-3-year-old child, then you can only imagine this in your dreams. The child is constantly following you. How can you manage and allocate at least 15-20 minutes a day for yourself?
Instructions
Step 1
Ask your child to bring a yellow hare, a red truck, or a train from another room. The search for these toys will take some time, and it is possible that the child will stay longer, becoming interested in toys. If he fulfills your request, give him a new task - let him carry five objects of a round shape, or starting with the letter "R". The older the child gets, the more difficult the tasks should be. In addition to being distracted from you, the child also trains attentiveness, memory, repeats counting, letters, shapes, colors.
Step 2
Arrange task games with your child. Have him feed all the toys, put the dolls to bed, or drive all the cars to the garage. Offer tools for completing assignments. For example, a clean empty food jar, from which he will feed the animals, or a book that needs to be read to dolls.
Step 3
Get a "magic bag". Put small toys, empty vials, ribbons, plastic bottle caps, clean pebbles, beads into this bag. Everything that is unnecessary trifle for adults, and amazing treasures for children. In addition, you will probably have bags with old clothes, boxes with unnecessary jewelry or hairpins in your home. The kid who received such a bag will definitely leave you alone for 20 minutes. Update the content periodically, add something new, and don't give it to your child too often. In no case, do not forget about the safety of these items for the child. Giving this treasure into his hands, you must be absolutely calm about his life and health.
Step 4
Watching TV in the evening, make it a habit to cut beautiful pictures from old magazines, packaging, etc. This will calm you down, and a child 4-5 years old can be very interested in such pictures.
Step 5
If the child is confident in using a tool such as scissors, give him unnecessary newspapers or magazines. Let him cut pictures, tear, do whatever he wants.
Step 6
The most common and effective way to achieve loneliness is to play cartoons on your child. You can use audiobooks, slideshows, etc. But this method is not the most beneficial for the health of a developing organism. Try to use it less often.
Step 7
You can try to ask the child to help you - wipe the dust, sort out the cereals, put some things in their places.
Step 8
Ask your toddler to go to the kitchen and see if the kettle is boiling or which light is on on the washing machine. You can ask to look at something in the window - there are a lot of options, there is one condition - do not forget about the safety of the child.
Step 9
You can give your child the opportunity to do the same things that you do. You are reading - even if he looks at the pictures in his book. You are sitting at the computer - give it an old keyboard, let it press the keys too.
Step 10
You can also use the purchased toy to help yourself. Do not wait for the child to play enough with it, and he will get bored with it, remove it for a while. Let them rest from each other. Later, it can be useful to you again, as a distraction from you.
