Many mothers have faced a problem when the child begins to fall asleep at the wrong time. You have five minutes left before you enter the apartment, and the baby begins to fall asleep right in the stroller. If you let your baby fall asleep now, you can interrupt a full day's rest, so you need to make sure that the baby does not sleep.
Instructions
Step 1
The vast majority of children have their own regime. They want to sleep, eat, and play around the same time. Observe your baby and plan your walks so that you can get home by the time your baby is drawn to sleep.
Step 2
Saw that the child is going to fall asleep - start distracting him with conversations. Draw his attention to interesting things happening around you ("Look, the dog ran," "Listen to the bird singing to us").
Step 3
Take a toy with you for a walk that you can give your child if he starts to fall asleep. It should not be a doll or a car with which the baby is constantly playing. The more new the toy is for him, the more interest it will cause. If you have not grabbed anything from home that could attract the child's attention and make him forget about sleep, you can give the child your thing that will arouse his interest - a mirror, a hairpin, a keychain from keys.
Step 4
Give your child a treat - an apple or a cookie. Of course, while the baby is eating, he will not fall asleep.
Step 5
If your child is very small, in order to wake him up, you can tug his hands or cheeks, wipe his face with a damp cloth, unbutton his jacket (of course, if the baby is not in danger of catching a cold).
Step 6
It is believed that classical music and pleasant jazz tunes soothe a child and help him fall asleep faster. In turn, dynamic music interferes with normal sleep. Turn on a popular song on your mobile phone, invite your child to sing with you.
Step 7
Promise a one and a half to two-year-old child that something interesting will be waiting for him at home - a treat, a cartoon, a dad returning from work. Tell us how entertaining the cartoon is and how dad will be happy to see his baby. Then the baby himself will try not to fall asleep, so as not to miss a significant event for him.
