Follow your one-year-old's interests! [YOU are the best MOM] vol.3

Children start walking when they are one year old, and their range of activities is greatly expanded. The scenery has changed from when I was crawling, and I am curious about various things. Even if you give a new toy, you can't take your eyes off it by putting it in your mouth or throwing it. Mom can't take her eyes off her energy and get tired in the evening. If she can, she wants to stop her behavior, but through many experiments during this period, she will develop the "motivation" and "learning power" she needs in the future.No good! What I want you to do to avoid saying that is "creating an environment"Think of one year as an experiment. We are cultivating the foundation of life to live a strong life from now on. You will be able to stand and gain the freedom to act by walking on your own. What is this? What is it used for? If you wonder, I try to touch it and lick it myself to verify it as a child.There are things you want your child to do so that they don't have to say "no!" To what they are interested in. It is to create an environment where you can do what you want to do from the beginning. Keep things that are in trouble if they are broken out of reach or invisible. If you get injured by touching it, take measures in advance, such as putting it in a place where children cannot open it. It takes time, but if you let them experience it as much as possible, you will grow up to be a curious and highly motivated child.Create an environment where your child could freely do it instead of using it! Value the experienceOne-year-olds enjoy climbing on small steps and try to climb anywhere. You might even tell a child who is trying to climb on the table that he shouldn't. When you say no, children mistakenly think that the act of climbing is not good. Instead, move your child to a place where you can climb, such as stairs. When you can climb, you can feel the sense of accomplishment by saying "I was able to do it" and "I was able to climb".Experience of a one-year-old child leads to motivation if you experience a lot of basics of life and a sense of accomplishmentThe process of human growth is meaningful for each age. There is no useless learning. One-year-olds are doing a lot of experiments. We are ascertaining what the things around us are for and what they are doing. And through my own experience, the sense of accomplishment that I was able to do leads to motivation. At the same time, I am learning to think and act in my own way, and develop my ability to adapt and apply in the future. A chance to learn when you are interested. If you do it to your heart's content, you will grow into a motivated child.
