Facing the children of 100, why should you answer them in words that children can understand?

Faced with a hundred thousand reasons for "curious baby", it will be difficult for every parent to find reinforcements. How to handle it better?

The brain hole is so big

What are you asking?

Before that, we might as well take some time to understand what children like to ask.

Children aged 2-3 are more likely to ask such questions:

"Where is the bus going?"

"Where did the little ant climb?"

Children at this stage are concerned about the problem-this one, how this thing develops next, and what changes have taken place. Children often associate their lives with other things.

For example, telling stories, children around 2 years old are more concerned about what kittens eat. Where to sleep? Who are you playing with? This is actually a question that children ask from the association of "eating, sleeping and playing by themselves".

Children over 3 years old, ask more questions like this:

"Why are car wheels round?"

"Why can't you see the stars during the day?"

Children are over 3 years old and begin to pay attention to the logic and causality of things. The difficulty of the problem has increased, which is actually the further development of children's thinking ability and association ability.

When he sees an interesting and incomprehensible phenomenon, he will search for similar phenomena he has seen in his mind, compare, analyze and ask questions. For example, when a child sees the bow tip, he may think of a car that is also a means of transportation. Why is the front of the car not sharp?

Of course, the child's brain hole may be infinite. How to satisfy his curious little universe.

Satisfy sb's curiosity

Find the answer together

Children have many questions to ask every day. When he says a question that he has never asked, you should take it seriously, because he may find something novel and can't wait to explore it.

At this time, no matter how busy you are, give your child some time to tell him the answer, or help him find the answer and let him solve his doubts.

A friend said that once her daughter suddenly came to her and asked her, Mom, why are the ants waiting in line?

It turned out that my daughter saw a protruding pile of ants in the garden, and many ants came in and out, which was very interesting, so this problem arose.

Mom replied: Last time I went for a spring outing, did the tour guide ask everyone to follow, otherwise what would happen?

The daughter said loudly, you won't find the way. If you don't follow the front, you won't find your way. So ants are also afraid of getting lost.

Don't rush to answer directly, guide the children and find the answer step by step.

Repetition problem

Answer in words that children can understand.

Children sometimes ask you the same question over and over again. Don't think that he did it on purpose. It is very likely that he really can't remember the answer.

In this case, the best way is to answer it again, but don't repeat the last answer. To put it another way, tell him in childlike/humorous/life-oriented language, so that he can have a deeper impression on the answer and remember it, and then he won't ask questions next time.

For example, a child asked: Where did the sun go?

Simple answer: the sun went down and went home.

Answer: Because Grandpa Sun is very tired after a day's work, he needs to go home and sleep.

Integrate into the child's world, explain it with situations that he can be more familiar with, and deepen his memory. I believe the effect is better than repeating the scientific statement countless times!

Some questions don't need to be answered

Children just want to pay attention.

Sometimes, children will keep asking questions in order to attract attention.

Mom and dad go to work in the morning, and the children refuse, so the problem comes.

"Why does mom go to work?"

"Why doesn't Dad play with me?"

If you answer seriously, such as making money to buy things, you will find it useless at all. Children will ask:

"Why make money?"

"Is it okay to buy nothing?"

Endless questioning can only explain the child's anxious heart at the moment. How to answer to satisfy the baby? You can help him say what he wants to say, "The baby doesn't want his mother to go to work, does it? When the mother is not at home, the baby will miss her mother, and the mother has been thinking about the baby. "

Curiosity needs to be cared for, and asking questions is a good thing. For children, there are 100 whys a day, and there is no need to think about which question is not answered well. Mother's energy is limited.

When I'm busy, he keeps asking questions, and I'll let him find the answer himself, or just cut it and tell him that mom is busy now and you can play with toys for a while.

The so-called scientific parenting, who can practice it so thoroughly and keep it perfect all the time?
