What a 2-year-old should know

If you have scoured the internet asking, “What a 2-year-old should know” or “What should my 2-year old be doing,” we are so glad you have found us!

Let’s chat about the fantastic mind of a 2-year-old and learn about how you can support your toddler in the absolute best ways.

Are you following my toddler Pinterest board?

SPOILER ALERT – we are going to talk a lot about the value of reading books with your 2-year-old. We have a great guide on books for children that you can have sent straight to your inbox!

What a 2-Year-Old Should Know

When my son was born, I remember reading everything I could to make sure I was infusing enough language into our daily routines, ensuring that he was engaged and challenged, and always on top of the “checklists.”

Meanwhile, I read soooo many books to him, and later looked back and realized that my love of books has now become his love of books. At age three, he sits for hours in my lap and reads book after book, never tiring of our storytime together. It has made me realize that perhaps, those developmental checklists aren’t as vital as I once deemed them.

While you want to make sure your toddler is on track, even checklists are going to be missing some of the most important aspects in your child’s life.

So give yourself permission to put down the checklist, remind yourself that they are little for such a short time, and focus on these important skills of love with your sweet and precious toddler.

The Most Important Things to Treasure with your 2-Year-Old

If I could give my child 3 things, it would be the confidence to always know their self-worth, the strength to chase their dreams, and the ability to know how deeply loved they are.

-Anonymous

This beautiful stage of life is all about celebrating the little moments, the first full sentence, or that first solo climb up the playground ladder. The academics will certainly take precedence later in life but in these sweet and fleeting years, it’s time to focus on love, family, and safety.

So here is the most important list (in my book) of what a 2-year-old should know:

A two-year-old should know that they have a family that loves them to the ends of the earth, no matter the silly mistakes they make or angry tantrums they might have (even in the middle of the grocery store, I might add).

They should know that to be messy is to enjoy life fully.

A two-year-old should know that when they fall and land hard, that there will always be someone to snuggle them up and whisper words of love and care.

A two-year-old should be free to be creative and eccentric. “You want to give that elephant six trunks? Great idea!” There is no limit to the imagination.

A two-year-old should know that they are unique and strange and wild and free and silly and brilliant all at the same time, in every way, every day. And they should be told regularly how wonderful all of those things are.

A two-year-old should explore their interests freely. Love tools? Let’s build! Love flowers? Let’s garden. No interest in learning the alphabet song? No problem, little one… there is plenty of time for that one day. For now, let’s dress up and have that tea party with all your stuffed animal friends.

What Parents of a 2-Year-Old Should Remember

Parenting in this day and age is not for the faint of heart — the competition, the fast-paced lifestyle, and the MANY hats that parents have to wear each day make this job of parenting… well, heavy.

It’s time that you take this moment to celebrate everything that you do for your little one and what is most important to your silly and loving little two-year-old.

Remind yourself that your two-year-old wants YOU. They don’t need fancy, light-up talking toys, or academic games. The best thing you can offer your little one is undivided attention.

Remind yourself that stepping into a child’s ego is such a delight for your two-year-old. Letting go of your adulting worries, for just a little while, and playing with your child, like a child, is simply magical.

Remind yourself that reading to your two-year-old is the BEST predictor of academic success. Your little sponge soaks up all those magical stories and adventures and learns a multitude of things during each and every storytime. So crack open a book and dive in!

Remind yourself that less is more. Help your two-year-old enjoy simplicity. Nature walks, moments of mindfulness, and messy art projects designed to be fun and exciting.

Of course, don’t forget singing and dancing. Song and dance always chase away the blues and help our kiddos feel secure and loved. Check out our amazing list of the best toddler songs!

“It is a happy talent to know how to play.”

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Lastly, remind yourself that play is THE work of childhood. Free play, dramatic play, focused play, nature play, you name it. Let your 2-year-old make choices, change their mind, and do it all over again. Because they are learning SO much from it.

One of the best ways to help your child meet the milestones for a 2-year-old is through play, art, stories, and hands-on activities. These are so beneficial to build curious little learners.

Need somewhere to start with engaging activities that will teach the skills they need at the same time? We have planned out a fantastic set of lesson plans for toddlers.

From colors to farm, space to transportation, we have made it easy and exciting to play and learn! You will be amazed at how the simple materials in these activities offer endless fun and excitement. Grab these toddler lesson plans in our store!

2-Year-Old Milestones

We talked about how those developmental checklists often get too much attention, but they can also be valuable as an overview of what your 2-year-old should know. So let’s look into some things you can do to help your 2-year-old blossom and grow in all areas!

Language Skills for a 2-Year-Old

• Help your toddler build language by encouraging them to carry on a conversation with you or answer simple questions. Encourage them to answer questions too!
• Build vocabulary by talking about parts of the body, naming animals, foods, vehicles, colors, and encourage them to ask questions if they don’t know something. Warning – this may lead to the never-ending “why” phase, but know that your child is just soaking everything in and it’s temporary, ha!
• Practice giving two-step directions to your toddler, such as, “Put your plate in the sink and get a book from your bookshelf for storytime”. Praise your toddler for a job well done or give a gentle reminder to complete that second step.

Social-Emotional Skills for a 2-Year-Old

• Help your child name their feelings. Share that we all have big feelings and that’s perfectly ok. Give them some ways to settle their big feelings and practice this routine together.
• Go on playdates and invite your two-year-old to play with others. It’s totally normal if your toddler is still engaging in parallel play (the children are playing around each other but not playing together).
• Begins taking turns with guidance and showing more independence with things like brushing teeth, dressing/undressing, or being a helper around the house.

Motor Skills for a 2-Year-Old

• Catches or begins to kick a ball a large ball. This is an easy way to get outside together and build those gross motor skills!
• Jumps up with both feet off the floor and can walk up and down stairs slowly with help.
• Can build towers with blocks or toys of about 4-7 blocks tall.
• Is able to squeeze a spray bottle.
• Can place stickers on a piece of paper.

Potty Training

Potty training is a very common milestone for two-year-olds. We have developed a potty training course, Peaceful Potty Training, to guide you along the way. Keep in mind that there is no rule that all children should be potty trained while two. Every child is ready for underwear at different ages! Don’t miss our tips on how to know when to start potty training.

There are many skills you can work on that are life skills too:

Encourage your child to learn to dress and undress (even if it takes longer).

Help them become familiar and comfortable with the bathroom.

And learn about potty training in a fun way with potty training books and potty training songs.

These 2-year-old milestone checklists will come in due time as your child is ready.

Young toddlers are the sweetest, albeit most indecisive little humans that absolutely steal our hearts with their tiny voices and big demands. Learning alongside them is a wild ride – exhausting but also so very special.

At what age children are sent to kindergartens – when is it better to let a child go and at what age can one go to school

When is it better to send a child to kindergarten

development, nurseries and other institutions where you have to leave the baby for a few hours or a full day. On the other hand, not everyone is spoiled by grandmothers who are burning with the desire to devote themselves to their grandchildren, but the need to earn money and provide for the family remains. The dilemma is solved in different ways.

The peculiarity of joining a team is a too abrupt change in schedule and social circle. It’s good if mom or dad can not work or take a vacation for 1-2 months to spend more time with the baby and follow the principle of gradualness, when the child is first left in the group for 1 hour. Then for 2 and so bring to a full day. At this point, colds may become more frequent and not all of them will be caused by an infection or a virus. Psychosomatic reasons are also possible.

At what age do children enter kindergarten

The optimal interval is from 1.5 to 3 years. Previously, many have not yet formed a set of simple self-service skills. Later, the habit of being in the center of attention of the family already appears, which makes it difficult to adapt.

It is also important to look at psychological readiness. It occurs in babies at different times. There are those who are already at 1.3 closely at home and in some cases even this option is considered. If a three-year crisis has begun, then it is wiser to wait six months until the ability to negotiate and concede returns, and then plan the date when to go to kindergarten for the first time.

If circumstances permit, it is better to start visiting from the last month of summer and smoothly enter the autumn off-season. So there will be fewer diseases, and more positive emotions from the new place and the company of peers.

Age characteristics of children

Most preschool institutions have the right to accept a pupil from the age of 1. But most often, beginners come to the second younger group, from 3-4 years old, and there is a logical explanation for this.

Babies do not strive for communication, they need only knowledge of the world around them and reliable hugs from their parents. They do not yet have a desire to expand this safe circle, kids do not feel the need to share and generally perceive their peers as fun toys.

By the age of 3, self-awareness as a person comes, conscious desires appear, the concept of compromise, curiosity gradually arises in relation to peers, attempts to establish a dialogue. Speech is developing, there is a good vocabulary, a craving for story games is visible.

The older the child, the wider his interests and these natural impulses cannot be restrained. It is necessary to provide him with a field of activity, a developing environment, and usually this happens by 3-4 years. This interval is considered the most successful for adaptation to new conditions.

How to understand that a child is ready for kindergarten

There are a number of signs indicating that the time has come:

• basic self-care skills have been formed;
• there is a clear concept of “one’s own – someone else’s” in relation to things;
• there is a need to engage in independent activities;
• calmly tolerates the absence of parents nearby;
• have an interest in classes.

The moral aspect must be taken into account. With all the difficulty with places in groups, you need to listen to the opinion of the baby. If he categorically does not want to stay, does not allow the teacher to come to him, then he will have to postpone the first visit or find another institution. Children feel a lot on an intuitive level, and in order to avoid future problems, it is better to listen to your child.

How to prepare for kindergarten, if it’s still too early

The work is to be systematic and at once on 2 levels: domestic and psychological. In the first case, everything is quite simple – you need to learn how to dress, ask for a potty, recognize your things, and eat carefully. In the second, if a small homebody grows up, then visit the playground more often, go to visit, gradually forming the skill of communicating with unfamiliar people. When hyperactivity and incontinence is observed, it is necessary to show that others experience the same emotions as he does, have their own desires and needs, and this will have to be taken into account.

It is useful to establish a clear daily routine at home, introduce them to story games, periodically do simple crafts together, and collect constructors. And also create a positive impression by talking about interesting holidays, friends who will certainly appear, joint and fun walks.

Which kindergarden to choose: private or public

Against the backdrop of a total shortage of places around, a large selection of non-state educational institutions, including pre-school ones, has appeared. They offer a lot of interesting programs, individual development and other bonuses, but require the financial solvency of the parents. The municipal option is much more economical, but it has its advantages and disadvantages. This aspect must be thought out in advance, weighing your desires and possibilities. It is also important to look at possible options and find out how the groups are equipped, what qualifications the educators have, whether there is a psychologist and physical education instructor on staff, whether the quality of food meets accepted standards.

State kindergarten

Its main advantage is accessibility. You can stand in line literally in the first days after the birth of a child. The system of work of the institution has been worked out for decades. Benefits:

• Full compliance of conditions with the requirements of the SES, Rospotrebnadzor and other regulatory authorities;
• low pay;
• developmental programs are developed taking into account the subsequent transition to school, guarantee training at a general level;
• balanced nutrition;
• the regime of the day is observed strictly;
• the staff must have a nurse and a psychologist;
• offers additional classes for the disclosure of creative data.

Having found out at what age children go to kindergarten and specifying how pupils are admitted in accordance with the charter, you can slowly prepare the child, walk several times to the walking area, watch how others play, accustom him to the idea that there good and he will be happy.

Disadvantages are a large number of groups, sometimes up to 30 people, an average system of development with a focus on mass character, problems with staffing.

Private kindergarten

Children are accepted here from a very early age, their number is small, so an individual approach to each is implemented. The undoubted advantage is modern equipment, bright design of the playing area, developing programs using author’s methods. You can choose several types of activities, forming a personal vector with an emphasis on the area of ​​interest to the child at the moment. The food is more varied, but within the limits recommended by nutritionists by age.

When visiting, you can choose the hourly option or the full day with daytime naps. In short-stay groups, they are guided by a busy work schedule, with obligatory game minutes and free creativity time.

Many consider the high cost of services and the lack of regular control by inspection bodies to be the main disadvantage.

The positive aspects of the kindergarten

A person cannot exist outside of society, therefore, it is necessary to form the skills of a good neighborhood with peers from an early age, so that a boy or girl can easily find a compromise, learn to act in a team, be responsible for their actions without discounting age and privileged position in the family. It is these tasks, along with systematic development, that are considered the main ones in a preschool institution, regardless of its form of ownership.

Rules and boundaries

When discussing with relatives at what age to send a child to kindergarten, it is necessary to take into account that there are rules of behavior for pupils. For those who have formed the habit of getting their way with screaming and tantrums, adaptation will be difficult. It is worth acquainting the baby in advance with the fact that not everything will be according to his desire, you need to focus on others. It is also important to tell that in the garden there is a daily routine and an algorithm for conducting classes in which it is required to fulfill the requests of the teacher.

A sense of collectivism

A very useful skill that allows you to calmly enter any circle in the future without experiencing much stress from changing conditions. Toddlers gradually master the art of negotiating, playing together, giving in to another. Parents should pay attention to the fact that the desire to “be with everyone” does not develop into dependence on someone else’s opinion. And this is already the task of the family – to teach, without violating the general order and not to the detriment of others, to defend their point of view, giving arguments.

Motor activity

A modern child begins to understand gadgets much earlier, ignoring the need for walks and communication. There is a clear daily routine and a considerable place is given to sports games, musical and rhythmic entertainment, and recreational activities. Hypodynamia does not threaten. For those who have energy in full swing, you can choose a sports or dance circle. They work in most kindergartens of any type.

Daily routine

It can be argued that it is not needed and considered as a restriction of freedom. But a clear routine is necessary for babies and older children to maintain health, as periods of activity alternate with rest and quiet games. Food is taken on time, walks and activities are distributed taking into account age characteristics. Daily adherence to the schedule keeps the child’s physiological, psychological and emotional state normal, especially if he is hyperactive and constantly aroused. Gradually, his tension is removed, and his behavior stabilizes.

Preparing for school

Continuity in learning is necessary for a smooth transition to the next stage of development. Ensuring family adherence to this principle is difficult. In kindergarten, it is the foundation. That is why kids, moving from one group to another, master more and more complex skills, based on the experience gained earlier.

They broaden their horizons, learn to communicate on various topics, master new skills. The work is carried out on the basis of the approved educational program.

Order and manners

A well-mannered person greets guests, thanks for their help, uses the whole arsenal of polite words, knows how to behave at the table and put his things away. Educators teach this from the first days, and the child will feel confident in any society.

Negative aspects

Some parents are categorically against the pre-school institution, arguing that:

• children get sick more often;
• have a hard time being separated from loved ones;
• do not eat the dishes offered for breakfast;
• unreasonable whims begin and behavior worsens;
• not quite decent words slip through the speech.

At the same time, providing a baby with greenhouse conditions at home means dooming him to severe stress when faced with the realities of life. Knowing what disadvantages can be when visiting a kindergarten, you can try to minimize the consequences.

Separation from family

The absence of a mother or father nearby is hard for some children. The educator, with a group size of 25-30 pupils, is not able to give everyone as much attention as he had previously received at home. If this state of affairs is too hard to bear, it is worth postponing visits to the preschool.

Also, the baby will inevitably demand independence. So that he does not receive negative emotions again, it is advisable not to limit his communication only to his inner circle. You need to accustom to the kindergarten gradually, adding the time spent by 1-2 hours as you adapt in the team.

Lack of development of the child’s individuality

With a large number of children, it is really difficult to ensure the full disclosure of talents and abilities. Programs are compiled with a focus on average age data. The main task is to create a stock of basic knowledge and skills.

On the other hand, nothing prevents parents from simultaneously enrolling a child in an art, sports or music school, attending theaters and exhibitions with him, Sunday creative studios for preschoolers.

A bad example of other pupils

It is unlikely that parents will be pleased with the replenishment of the heir’s vocabulary with obscene words or an attempt to clean his nose with his finger. Bad habits are formed instantly, but there is reason to talk about it, to discuss whether it is worth imitating a playmate in everything or having your own opinion, adhering to it.

Frequent morbidity

Questions about when you can go and at what age to send your child to kindergarten, it is better for parents to decide, based on the condition of the baby. But at any age, when conditions change, his immunity inevitably decreases, and the reason here is not only in the cool air in the bedroom or not wearing a scarf for a walk. The diet, daily regimen is changing, there is also an emotional component. You can help by hardening, increasing the share of vegetables and fruits in the menu, and, of course, parental love.

Food problems

Every family has its own taste preferences and favorite dishes. But the diet in kindergarten is compiled taking into account the recommendations of nutritionists, and the pupil does not always like it. There are also personal whims. They gradually cease when the spirit of collectivism kicks in. Seeing that the others dine with appetite, the child also decides to try what was offered.

If you have an allergy to certain foods, you must inform the nurse in advance. Other side dishes or drinks are prepared for such children.

Personnel problems

Unfortunately, the prestige and salary of an educator are not as great as we would like. Most of the graduates of the departments of preschool education prefer to change their direction of activity immediately after the final exams. And often this is the most talented category. When choosing a kindergarten and a group, pay attention to the personality of the teacher, or rather, introduce the child to him and look at his reaction. If he stretched, then everything is in order. In case of a sharp refusal to communicate, it is better to look for another option.

Recommendations about when and at what age children most want to go to kindergarten can vary. The main thing is that the baby is mentally prepared for the event, has the necessary household skills and strives for new experiences.

SN_Education, Social navigator

Choosing a kindergarten is a complex, important and time-consuming process . If you plan that your child should start going to kindergarten from September 1 of the current year, you must select a suitable preschool institution in advance and submit documents between February 1 and May 31.

“Social Navigator” has prepared a number of general tips that can make it easier for parents to choose an organization for preschool education.

At the moment, in large cities, the situation has developed in such a way that the choice of preschool education directly affects the school where the child will be and continue his education. This is primarily due to the fact that many kindergartens are assigned to schools. It’s worth thinking about it now, because the closer to the age when a child should go to first grade, the more difficult it is to find a suitable option.

Kindergartens of Russia – 2017

Of course, all parents start looking for a place for their child from what is within walking distance. This aspect is one of the most relevant when choosing a kindergarten, which is confirmed by the results of the ONF survey. A large distance between the house and the garden will create additional difficulties. This may affect the attendance of children. At the same time, the territorial accessibility of our kindergartens is assessed as high, more than half of the parents get to preschool institutions on foot. Some families who pay special attention to this issue even change their place of residence in connection with the birth of children.

Kindergarten staff

A well-located kindergarten is an important but not a key issue. The most important thing is the staffing. Here you need to pay attention to teachers: do they have a higher pedagogical education, an appropriate (preschool) education. Of course, the human factor cannot be ruled out, you need to try to get to know each other personally, to get to know the future teacher better.

Kindergartens: strengths and weaknesses of early childhood education

It is worth choosing a kindergarten where there is a full-time psychologist. The importance of the constant work of a specialized teacher with your child cannot be underestimated.

You also need to pay attention to the presence of a nurse: in general, the situation here is positive. In approximately 75% of cases, there are people who are ready to provide first aid to children.

There is a staffing problem in the regions: local authorities are fighting queues for kindergartens not at the expense of new buildings, but by increasing the density of groups. Therefore, the number of children in one group can sometimes reach up to 45 people, with an average of 25. Therefore, it is worth choosing the kindergarten where the ratio of teaching staff and support staff (cooks, cleaners) is better in relation to children.

Education

Next, you should pay attention to the program used by the preschool educational organization. Among the comprehensive programs (covering all five educational areas and aimed at the versatile development of the child’s personality) are:

• “From birth to school” edited by N.E. Veraksa, T.S. Komarova, M.A. Vasilyeva.
• “Childhood” edited by T.I. Babaeva, A.G. Gogoberidze, O.V. Sunny
• “Origin” edited by L.A. Paramonova

Of the partial programs (covering one of the educational areas and aimed at the local development of any ability or skill), the most common are: Avdeeva, O.L. Knyazeva, R.B. Sterkin

“Colored hands” I. A. Lykova

The above programs are the most popular and most often used in kindergartens, however, each parent should choose the appropriate education plan for their child individually, based on the child’s preferences, strengths and weaknesses.

Kindergarten through the eyes of parents: fees, meals, additional services Almost every Russian child attends a kindergarten. This is an important stage in the life of the baby and his parents. What expenses the family bears, how they get to the kindergarten, whether they are satisfied with the nutrition of the preschool child – on the eve of the Child Protection Day, see the infographic of the “Social Navigator” of the MIA “Russia Today”.

Also study the kindergarten itself and the organization of child safety. For example, the presence of a fenced area for walking, as well as specially equipped playgrounds. Is there a day guard? Are computers and electronic means used for classes? Such additional services for children as a swimming pool, of course, will be a huge plus.

In conclusion, it should be noted that 71% of parents highly appreciate the condition of the kindergarten where their child studies. The results of the study “Kindergartens of Russia – 2017”, made with the support of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, as well as the Institute for the Study of Childhood, Family and Education of the Russian Academy of Education with the support of the “Social Navigator” MIA “Russia Today”, can also help you with the search.

New “preschool” standard

From 2022, new educational standards come into force in Moscow preschool institutions — a set of rules for preschool institutions, according to which the educational process is built, methods are applied, and results are also evaluated.

Preschool education in the capital is the first step in lifelong general education: preschool teachers and primary school teachers cooperate, share experiences, and jointly develop programs for children. This approach helps the children to prepare more easily for the transition to the first grade. What does the standard govern? What classes are held with children, how many times a week, in what areas do children gain knowledge and skills? The answers are in our material.

Taking care of your baby’s health

In kindergarten, the baby finds himself in a new environment, surrounded by children and adults. Chief freelance specialist in primary health care for the children’s population, chief physician of the Children’s City Polyclinic No. 110, Ph.D. Elmira Kashirina told how to protect a child from infectious diseases and answered the most common questions parents have about their children’s health.

Short stay group

Short stay group ensures the all-round development of the child and creates the basis for further successful adaptation to enrolling in a full-time preschool group.

By attending such a group, a child will be able to learn how to play, find new friends, have an interesting and useful time, get used to a new environment, acquire communication skills with peers and new adults. At the same time, the child does not experience a sharp change in living conditions, as happens when the baby moves immediately to attending a full-day group. When visiting a short-stay group, the process of adaptation to a full-day group is the most calm and comfortable for the child and family.

Tasty and healthy:

what is fed in kindergarten

One of the most common questions of parents is what they will feed their baby in kindergarten, who prepares food, controls the quality and safety of dishes. The quality of dishes from the menu for kids is under the strictest multi-stage control of a number of organizations: state supervisory authorities, control authorities of the subject of Moscow, food quality control by representatives of the parent community, internal audit of specialists from the Association of Social Catering Enterprises and others. 9Olga Antonova why he does not want to eat porridge, how to calm him down if he cries in the morning and does not want to go to the garden, what to tell the teacher about the family and the child

A child’s readiness for kindergarten is determined by several parameters. The first thing a child should be able to do is to be socialized, not to be afraid to make contact with unfamiliar adults – of course, with the permission of the parents. It is important. It is very difficult for children who have a painful attachment to their mother. It is the mother who should calmly let him go for 5-6 hours, and the child should endure this separation without unnecessary worries.

The second point: it’s good if the child already has basic household skills. Be able to go to the toilet on a potty (according to age, if we are talking about 2.2 years old), hold cutlery in your hands, be able to undress yourself (remove simple clothes without unnecessary fasteners and details), and for about three years – and dress.

The third point: it is important that the baby knows how to express his requests (not afraid and not embarrassed to ask) if he wants something. For example, if he does not know how to go to the toilet on his own, he could ask an adult for help. Or make it clear that he wants to drink, show that he is hot. Even if the baby still does not speak well, he can show it in other, non-verbal ways.

The fourth is food. The child must be able to eat food that needs to be chewed.

And the last thing: the baby should be ready for the daily routine of the preschool institution: walks, one-time naps, meals according to the schedule.

If you can put a “plus” next to all these items, your child is ready to attend kindergarten. If some points caused difficulties, it is necessary to work in this direction. If the child is not ready for all of the above points, then it may be worthwhile to postpone visiting the kindergarten, give yourself and the baby time to prepare.

One of the indicators of readiness for kindergarten is the ability to express one’s desires in an acceptable way. Often, children get used to behaving like this, because at home, through these actions, they manage to achieve what they want. It is necessary to wean from this child in a timely manner, because biting and scratching is unacceptable in kindergarten. Show your child other forms of interaction. Suppose a child wants something, but does not get what he wants and begins to bite and fight. The most competent strategy – the parent pretends that he does not understand what the child wants. Only when the baby expresses his request in a different way, the adult will do what he wants. Biting, scratching are quite common phenomena, such “primitive” ways of a child communicating with others. But in order to avoid problems in kindergarten, we recommend that parents bring their child to children’s groups in advance. Walk together, spend holidays, go on excursions with children of the same age. There he will gain the first experience and learn the right interaction, so that he knows that you can’t take someone else’s: you can share, you can go for an exchange.

There is such a pattern: an anxious mother is an anxious baby. When a family decides to send a child to a kindergarten, it is necessary to prepare him psychologically. First of all, it is necessary for the parents themselves. Get to know the teacher. As a rule, this is a professional who has all the communication skills, loves children and takes care of the child. Educators in baby groups are affectionate, kind, sometimes they even guess what the children want by their gestures and looks. They do everything to make them feel good there. If mom sees that this is a caring and professional person, she will calm down and trust. The willingness of a mother to send her child to kindergarten is a matter of trust. You need to let go of this situation, and the baby will independently master the new space. Some mothers make the mistake of coming to the kindergarten and picking up the child, asking questions: “Did you feel bad here?”, “Did someone offend you?”. On the contrary, it is better to ask positive questions: “Who did you play with?”, “What did you find interesting?”, “What did you eat tasty?”, so that in response the child reports positive information and focuses on it. Remember that parents can always be in touch with caregivers to clarify how the baby feels.

Develop your child’s adaptive abilities as early as possible, right from birth. Let him do what he can do on his own. The kid went, and the mother all the time says: “Don’t go there”, “Don’t do that”, constantly builds boundaries in front of him. Is the situation familiar? With this behavior of the mother, the child does not receive the necessary experience of mistakes, it will be difficult for him to learn anything. Train your child to be without a mother: take a nanny to help, ask a grandmother or a friend to sit with him. Take your child to different places outside the home. Mom herself gets used to doing without a child and not thinking about him every minute. This is an important workout for mom and baby.

It is important to teach the child to communicate with adults and find a common language with other children, as well as to express their needs in forms that are acceptable to the child. For example, if he does not speak, then teach him to use gestures. Will your baby be able to come up, take a familiar adult by the hand and lead him where he needs to go? Develop this skill.

It also happens that a child cries and whims achieves what he wants. This is unacceptable in a group of children. In such a situation, stop him and try to agree: “I don’t understand you. Calm down, please, show me what you want.” The contract element is important and should always be present.

In children, the inhibition of emotions is delayed, and the excitation mechanism prevails. Therefore, if the baby cannot calm down and cries, then it is best for an adult to hug him, pronouncing his emotions: “it’s difficult for you now,” “you’re offended.” This will help him calm down. When the child is already calm, you can say: “If you want something, don’t cry, but ask, please.” Give the child what he requires after he calms down.

Short stay groups were created mainly for working parents. Until the age of 2.5–3 years, a child can safely do without attending a kindergarten, especially if the family can afford it. If parents see that their child is already socialized at the age of 1.5–2 years, very contact, everything is interesting to him and he is ready to go beyond his home environment, then you can send him to a short stay group. Difficulties in adaptation can be – this is normal. Easy adaptation lasts 2-3 weeks, average – up to 4 months. If it becomes severe, it can last up to a year. Well socialized children may well go to a short stay group of one and a half years.

If a correct system of upbringing is developed in the family, then he receives everything he needs from birth. And gradually, as a rule, by the age of three, the baby himself matures to daily communication, surrounded by small children. Psychologists advise starting preparations for kindergarten about six months in advance.

You can walk with your child to the kindergarten. And tell them that the kindergarten is a big house where children, together with kind adults, play and have fun while moms and dads work. Parents must come for all children. The kindergarten is good, fun, a lot of toys.

Don’t constantly tell your child that he will be going to kindergarten soon. Just tell and show.

In the first days, when a mother brings a child to a kindergarten, it is important not to run away, leaving him there, but to calmly explain that the mother will definitely return very soon and everything will be fine. Wave your hand to the baby, kiss before leaving. The element of forgiveness should not hurt.

Too fast tempo introduces the child into an anxious state. Better be patient! You need to plan the morning so that the fees go smoothly. Give the child time to wake up, stretch, hug, calmly gather in the garden, do not rush him, do not pull. Most often, the cause of tears is in a banal haste.

I need to say if there are any medical contraindications, allergies. Tell what the child can do on his own, what he likes or dislikes. It is important to talk about some individual reactions of the child to something. Perhaps your family has some rituals or safe words. Tell us what helps the child calm down and fall asleep: maybe strokes or kind words? Tell what actions can help to establish contact with the child.

This largely depends on the anxiety of the parents, the strong attachment of the mother to the child. It happens that a mother, over the years of being with a child nearby, gets so used to him that it seems to her that he cannot cope without her. In fact, everything is possible, all children adapt.

If the mother does not have anxiety, but the child still cannot calmly go to the garden, psychosomatics cannot be ruled out. For example, before the kindergarten, the child spoke a little, and during the period of adaptation he stopped talking. Or he asked for a potty, and in the first weeks of going to the garden he stopped. A small regression for two or three weeks is the norm. Everything will be restored when the baby gets used to kindergarten. If the process is delayed, if the child withdraws into himself, is apathetic, sleeps poorly, eats poorly, is not interested in toys, it is imperative to understand the reasons. It is worth talking with a teacher, consult a pediatrician, a psychologist.

A common mistake is too drastic changes for a child when he is immediately left for the whole day in kindergarten. The child is more comfortable with gradual adaptation over 2-3 weeks. It is better to start from 2-4 hours. Sometimes it’s a good idea to just come and walk around the playground with the guys.

When we bring a child to a kindergarten, this does not mean that he has become an adult and he does not need motherly affection. It can be said that he grew up and learned a lot. The child in the same way needs attention, tenderness, hugs, praise – this is very important.

A common mistake is that parents are too critical of the kindergarten. It happens that they don’t like something and discuss the negative with the child. If something worries you about the teacher, regimen, nutrition, it is better to discuss this with the teacher or the leadership of the preschool institution without the presence of the baby.

It is really hard for a child to get used to unfamiliar food. Check out the Kindergarten menu. Try to change your home diet, bring it closer to the menu of a preschool institution. Limit salt, sugar, spices, make the menu healthier for the whole family. Include cereals, soups, casseroles, fruits (apples, oranges, bananas) in your diet. It is advisable to do this at least six months before the first acquaintance with kindergarten. But if you start when the baby is already in a group, gradually he will get used to such food. A healthier diet will benefit the whole family.
