Preschool age is a bright and unique page in the life of a little person. It was during this period that the process of socialization begins, the formation of a child's connection with the leading spheres of life: the world of people, nature, the objective world. There is an introduction to culture, morality and human values.

Step 1
Communication with parents is the very first and most important stage of socialization, where the baby for the first time learns the skills of communicating with his own kind. His further personal well-being largely depends on how the first years of his life pass. Being in an atmosphere of family love and care, the baby can carry through his whole life the desire to create his own family, starting from his childhood impressions, experiences and memories. With the help of parents, the baby for the first time acquires communication skills, which will certainly be useful to him in the future. However, this is just a preparatory stage for the beginning of a long journey.
Step 2
After the child turns three years old, it is recommended to send him to kindergarten. There, educators playfully teach children the correct behavior in society. Teachers help children understand what social distance, social space is.
Step 3
Communication with peers has a huge impact on the socialization of a preschooler. After three years, the child's need for joint pastime with peers increases. Role-playing games help to form an idea about the social classification of society, about the accepted conventions, about the distribution of social functions. In kindergarten, many children form friendships for the first time. Babies who have friends have more positive self-esteem and are self-confident. If you don't like your child's best friend, never criticize him. Otherwise, in the eyes of the baby, he will look even more attractive.
Step 4
A child in preschool age tries to find an idol among adults, that is, to choose an example to follow. Usually this is someone from the family. Try to become your child's friend / companion / idol yourself. The kid will share his thoughts and ideas with you. Perhaps it is your model of behavior that will become a role model and influence the behavior of the child in the future.
Step 5
For socialization, games where the baby plays the role of an adult are no less important. The child chooses a situation that is already familiar to him and tries to repeat it. Such games develop the imagination well and shape the future model of behavior. Play with your child, for example, "doctor". Treat with the baby his favorite toy - measure the temperature, give an injection, give medicine. You can use external attributes. For the game of "doctor" it can be a white cap and a robe.
Step 6
As a separate stage of socialization, one can also note the option of attending school before starting school. Walk with your child along the corridors, show the kid future teachers, look into classrooms, go to the dining room, to the gym. Show your child everything that awaits him in the future. This will help prepare the baby for the next social step - school. Thanks to such an excursion, the socialization process will be much easier, the baby will not have fear of the future. After all, the unknown is frightening. The kid will be sure that the school does not bear anything bad. The new social role will no longer be frightening as it used to be.
