Many parents take it for granted that children are throwing toys, and they are just making chaos in the apartment. However, the parents themselves are often to blame for this behavior of the child. If the baby does not want to get used to order, try changing tactics using some simple advice.
1. Do household chores together
The common phrase: "Run, play, I'm busy right now" is a very serious mistake that parents often make. Do business together. Place the child next to him in the kitchen, the path will take part in sculpting dumplings, wiping the table or washing dishes.
You should not distinguish between chores and communication with the child, try to combine these processes. During cleaning, you can tell the kid a fairy tale about things that have been looking for their place for a long time, and with the help of a little wizard, they have found it.
2. Celebrate successes
Do not forget to praise and encourage the child, because realizing their importance and uniqueness in matters of collecting toys from the floor and wiping off the dust, the baby will be happy to do the things in which he is the best of the best.
3. Consider character
Try to notice the baby's tendencies for a certain type of activity and trust him to perform exactly those tasks that he likes.
4. Play!
Even boring routine tasks can, if desired, be turned into exciting games. Washing magic dishes and searching for treasures in bags with purchases brought from the store - such fun adventures in the life of a baby have never been.
5. Let the child's help be real
Involve the kid for help where this help is really needed, and not just to distract the child from pranks.
6. Don't expect flawless results.
You should not immediately expect great success from the child in helping with the housework. However, you should not scold the baby, even if after the cleaning he carried out, the condition of the room only worsened. Mistakes are an important step on the road to progress.
8. Give an opportunity to show independence
If the child does the assigned job for too long, do not interfere with the process and push the baby. Let him remember that any business must be completed.
9. Work should not be a punishment
Housework should in no case be a punishment for misconduct and bad behavior, otherwise the baby will develop the confidence that helping around the house is something difficult and incredibly boring.
