Children in kindergartens are slow to warm up and are not good at actively communicating with others. How can children learn to make friends?

Childhood is a critical period for the development of children's personality and social skills. Some children may be slow to socialize and not very good at active communication. In this case, we can take some concrete actions to help children develop the ability to make friends.

First of all, we can let children find their favorite friends among many children. In kindergarten, children will meet many children with different personalities. How to "identify" and "approach" potential friends has become a concern of children and parents. In kindergarten, we can participate in various activities with our children, such as singing, dancing, toys and so on. Let children participate in these activities, let them contact and communicate with different children, and find friends who have the same hobbies as themselves. At the same time, you can also participate in parent-child interaction activities in kindergartens, communicate with other parents, let children contact their peers and cultivate their communication skills.

Second, we can simulate some social situations at home to help children learn to communicate. You can use some games or props suitable for children to create some role-playing scenes, such as "shopping", "treating guests" and "birthday parties". In these games, children are encouraged to actively communicate with others, express their thoughts and feelings with words and expressions, and teach children how to listen to others' thoughts and feelings and learn to respect others.

Thirdly, we can help children build their personal image and hobbies, and make them more confident when communicating with others. Children's appearance, clothes and interests are all very important factors for other children to make friends. In order to help children better integrate into the social circle, we can encourage children to explore their own personality and characteristics, let children gradually establish their own brand image, and guide children to explore their hobbies. For example, children may like painting, singing and performing, so they can relax and take part in some painting competitions, poetry readings or dance performances, so that their talents can be seen by more people and provide them with more opportunities to make new friends.

Finally, we need to create an open, safe and trusting environment for our children so that they can feel appreciated and respected. Every child is unique, and they should be supported and recognized by their parents and families. Parents can listen attentively to their children's stories and make them feel that their words are worthy of attention. In addition, let children know that the process of socialization takes time and effort, not overnight. Children need to learn in the process of interacting with other children, and gradually master and develop the skills of making friends, so as to establish better interpersonal relationships.

In short, the improvement of children's communicative competence requires the joint efforts of families and kindergartens. Parents should actively participate in their children's lives, help their children develop self-confidence, expand their interests and give them more opportunities to make friends. Kindergarten teachers should also create an open and safe learning environment, guide children to establish friendship, and educate children to learn how to deal with complex interpersonal relationships. Through these efforts, we believe that children's communicative competence will be effectively improved.
