When raising a child, every parent must pay attention to the labor education of a preschool child. Many couples, trying to protect their favorite child from homework at a younger age, subsequently faced with an unwillingness to help parents at an older age and then redoing the child is almost impossible.
Stages of labor education
Labor education of a small child can be divided into several points.
1. Household work. This concept includes helping parents in cleaning the premises, cooking, self -service and care for their things.
2. Labor in nature. This name means caring for indoor plants, helping parents when working in the garden and in the garden.
3. Manual labor. This is the manufacture of all kinds of crafts from paper, cardboard and natural materials.
The labor education of the child should begin from a very early age, for example, from a year, you need to teach a child to collect toys and put them in places. Of course, at the initial stage of labor education, this should happen in a playful way with parents and even if you are deeply sure that the baby can and should do some kind of business on his own, but for some reason he does not want to do this, you need without tears and punishment fun to do it with him.
The responsibilities of children
To accustom a child to everyday duties, it is necessary to gradually and consistently. For example, you should not tell the child that from tomorrow the dishes after dinner will be washed only by him. This will only cause a lot of contradictions and the unwillingness of the child to help around the house. Initially, household work should be in the form of help to parents and with the time when the child is ready to give him independent tasks.
Also, starting from an early age, it is necessary to accustom a child to work in nature. These skills will later help the child in the understanding of what needs to be protected and protected by nature. Of course, you should not force the child to plow the beds on the scorching sun, but to help dad with watering, taking a small watering can, will only benefit your baby.
Developing manual labor skills, parents will have to show maximum imagination. The main task when teaching a child to manual work is to reveal in a child all kinds of talents and abilities. As well as the development of imagination and non -standard thinking. At the same time, you need to try to ensure that all the crafts that you make with the baby find use in the house. In this case, the child will understand that the fruits of his work are beneficial, which means that he will not lose interest in manual work.
When accustoming preschool children, 2 factors are important to work.
1. An example of parents.
The child, as a sponge, absorbs everything that surrounds him and if he sees that parents work daily, take care of the house and the personal plot, the child will be easier and easier to teach to do the same.
2. Motivation.
When raising children, the moment of motivation is very important, but many parents begin to mistakenly motivate children with sweets, money or other things valuable for the child. With this approach, you can encounter a situation where, without remuneration, the child will not want to do anything at all. Correct motivation is praise. Praise your child, tell him what a good assistant he is and that you would never have done it without him. And most importantly, never scold the baby if he didn’t succeed, help him and be sure to praise.
