Teaching your child to plan is an integral part of their development. It is important to teach your child in time to properly allocate time even in preschool age. This contributes to the development of his cognitive abilities, the ability to set a goal, analyze and generalize knowledge about the object.
Instructions
Step 1
Teach your child to classify their activities into different categories: homework, sleep, social life. Explain to him what to do at home and outside, every day, and what can be rescheduled for the next day.
Step 2
Plan your day with your child. It must include such items as bedtime, breakfast, lunch, dinner, time for play, for walking in the fresh air, doing homework (if attending school). If you accustom your child to the daily routine from the first days of life, then in the future it will be easier for you: just the regime will gradually expand, and the child will take it as necessary. In addition, he will already have developed such habits as going to bed, eating, walking at the same time.
Step 3
Be sure to emphasize the importance of adherence to the regimen. For example, a child did not have time to eat breakfast. This means deprive him of watching his favorite cartoon (in the event that after breakfast he watches cartoons). Explain that this delay meant that there was no time left to watch TV. The next time the child will do everything on time. He will understand that he must do everything in due time, otherwise he can be late and lose his favorite pastime.
Step 4
Support what is said by personal example. The child should see how you plan your day, how it makes life easier for you. Since children first of all copy the behavior of their parents. For example, it is impossible to introduce a child to a healthy lifestyle if you yourself do not adhere to it.
Step 5
Place your child in a kindergarten or a hobby group. It will only help you teach your child how to plan their day. He will understand that if you do not get up on time in the morning, you can be late for your favorite pastime. And in order to wake up on time, you need to go to bed on time and so on, along the chain.
