About intimate and not only


About intimate and not onlyBathing and hygiene, massage, tickling, cuddling and hugs - lots of touches that help the baby to feel and be aware of your body. But the child also needs to know that his body belongs only to him, and to get an idea about intimacy. With your help.


Swimming




Bathing baby, be delicate, especially in regard to intimate parts of his body. At the age of two years child can begin to wash themselves. He is ready to show independence - give him that opportunity. When a child picks up a washcloth and soap, it means that he can and wants to wash himself. Treat with respect to his desire: sooner or later he will learn self-wash - take a moment when a child shows a maximum of initiatives.




Don't worry about what he will do is not enough "high quality", - warm water and soap will not fail. It is very important to understand that as children get older, parental authority and control with respect to its physicality should go down. Ask yourself these questions: at what point, you can stop to check how clean the child? When he would feel uncomfortable without clothes in the presence of adults?




If the child is not clean, it's not the end of the world. He quickly learn how to wash the private parts of the body. You can help him by the Board, but only words, not touching it.





Tickling


When she laughs, he's fantastic! You love his laugh. You tickle his heel, armpits, neck. He loves it and laughs. But after a few minutes, the laughter of a baby can turn into a scream and a cry. And this is not surprising. Tickling overly excites the nervous system, and pleasant sensations become annoying.




Be attentive to the child's behavior, do not cross the limit. This is a game for two, and it should bring joy to both participants. A small child is not a "pouch with a laugh", not awake for the sake of his own pleasure.




Cuddling




You rocked the baby, when he was very young? It seems that it already and go to sleep... But have yet to learn. Shake it a little, but not too strive. He is asleep? Well, that's enough.




During pregnancy the mother rocks her baby in the belly in the process of walking and different movements. It is natural for a child. So when we continue to rock the baby in a smooth rhythm, appropriate tranquil step, he quietly falls asleep. Cuddling beneficial when it meets the needs of a small child, when the movement corresponds to its internal rhythm. While small, it is important to keep such a deep connection with her mother and drifted off to sleep, to feel in the womb.




But it is not necessary to prolong this state: the child needs to find a more Mature ways of transition from wakefulness to sleep. And cuddling successfully replace reading at night.





Massage


Massage is beneficial to most children. But some kids just don't like him, others love it. As responds to massage your baby?




First of all we need to understand that you do massage the baby, not for his own pleasure and for his benefit. To learn sensitivity, will need some time. Pay attention to the child's reactions: it can be cold or hot, and he may feel bad because I had recently eaten, or just don't want him doing massage right now. In any case, if the baby starts crying, then something is wrong. Tears mean that he is upset, angry, annoyed, nervous, and therefore, need to finish the procedure.




Need to get rid of stereotypes that massage pleasant for all. Some children do not like massage, and do not need to insist the child may perceive this as coercion, suppression of his will, and disregard for the feelings. Give the child time, perhaps, as adults, it is no longer such a negative response.




Massage is an invasion of personal space, it is necessary to obtain the consent. If the kid likes massage before you begin, explain that you are going to do. The child should not feel passive body with which to do something. This is an active two-way process.




The game is in "airplane"




Most children delight from playing "airplane". He hovering low above the ground and shoots up dramatically. Often the kid asks to repeat the game again and again... until the moment when his laughter suddenly turns into screams of protest or cry.




Here, as well as the tickling, the child moves quickly from laughter, expressing pleasure, anxious, hysterical laughter, and then to tears. A small child may not always say no, stop, stop! In a panic he may fall into a stupor" and be unable to Express their feelings - no screaming, no tears. If you see that the child is anxious, it's time to finish. It is parents need to know when to stop!




Learning and development




One of the most important rules concerning small children - no excessive stimulation. Baby doesn't need to be entertained, awake, to laugh. The child does not have to constantly be cheerful, cheerful, laughing. He needed the quiet moments of solitude, contemplation and concentration. Don't constantly need to find for him lessons, at home and while walking he is able to occupy themselves for a while myself. He can very interesting to see, for example, the movement of leaves in the wind or the reflection in the puddle. He has the right to this "idleness", because even when he does, in your opinion, is not busy, the process of learning continues! He perceives, feels, thinks. And our adult views on the usefulness and appropriateness here are undone! At some time...
