Many parents will ask, why is it difficult for my baby to calm down and play what when he is always touching and gathering together?
In fact, this really can’t blame the baby, but also depends on whether parents have provided such an environment for the baby. For the baby, everything in the family is a monster, and there is no place that belongs to him, which inevitably makes the baby feel uneasy.
Today, we invited Mr. Tang Wei to share her experience with you and tell you how she made her baby more willing to put into his own small world by creating a small space for him.
My best friend’s son is 2 years old this year. After a few days of fun, he lost interest in playing with toys. He usually felt around and around, and soon began to look for people to accompany him all over the world.
Once my best friend brought her son to my house to play. We were chatting beside her. Her child actually played quietly for an hour. Although he was sometimes disturbed by us and occasionally came to ask for help, he was able to play by himself soon.
[Today is amazing], when leaving, my best friend touched the child’s head and said, “Baby, you are too good! ]
So, I reminded her: [Have you noticed that he has been playing in the children’s tent today? ]
[Yes, yes! At home, he always scampered around, on the sofa in the living room, on the floor in the living room, on the floating window, and on the bed in his shoes! ]
[He runs around precisely because he does not have a space of his own.]
Building exclusive space is very important for the growth of babies.
The small tent mentioned above was built by me for my family Xiao Bao. It was full of his favorite picture books and toys. Xiao Bao felt relaxed there and did not want to leave even when he went to bed.
But returning to my hometown is a completely different scene. Without exclusive space, Xiao Bao became clingy and asked me to accompany him everywhere. As soon as he could not see me, he began to cry and it was difficult to stay quietly for a while.
Exclusive space is a safe place for Xiao Bao. There, whether he orders everything one by one or sits in it and lets his thoughts gallop, he can feel relaxed and comfortable.
When children realize that there is a place that belongs to them completely, they will become willing to spend more time on their own territory and more willing to devote themselves to their own world. While improving their concentration, they will also gradually learn to be alone with themselves.
Every child should have an exclusive space of his own. It is not difficult for parents to create an exclusive space for their children.
Building exclusive space is easier than you think.
Take advantage of the ready-made corners of the home.
The exclusive space does not need to be too large, it is enough to find a corner of one square meter at home.
Mothers can make use of the ready-made layout of corners, floating windows, aisles, sofas, etc. to make a slight transformation to create the exclusive space for their children.
The wall surface can be arranged as a drawing board for children to daub at will, so that children can record it at any time when they have inspiration.
Floating windows can focus on children’s favorite toys or books, plus a small cushion, so that the baby can sit down and start the reading mode.
This kind of small bookshelf against the wall is also a very good choice, and there are many [children’s bookshelves] in a treasure search.
The height is adapted to the height of the child and can be fixed on the wall to ensure convenient reading and the safety of the child.
Delineate the territory with furniture suitable for children’s size.
If conditions permit, you can also circle a special place in the room to create a special space for children.
Using carpets, foam floor mats with different colors or safe fences to divide the children into an area of their own, and matching them with small tables, chairs, sofas and cushions suitable for the children’s height, will make them feel cordial and have a sense of belonging.
Children’s tents will make children feel mysterious and full of security at the same time. Children will be more willing to read, sleep and explore in them.
When children explore and build their own small territory, they can also learn to abide by the rules and cherish their own objects imperceptibly, and their self-control ability will gradually improve in the process.
Enrich Children’s Exclusive Space with Gadgets
Lazy sofas, small tables, tatami, storage boxes, etc., which only belong to children, are themselves a kind of miniature exclusive space and can also give children personal privacy.
Choosing light, angular and safe cartons and rattan baskets and placing them in the children’s exclusive space can give the children more choices, enrich the children’s sense of hierarchy in space consciousness and stimulate their creativity.
This small space made of waste materials is not difficult for parents to operate, but it is far from a place for children to have fun.
Creative small objects give children more imagination while playing.
Only one square meter is needed to enable children to find their own comfortable space in the huge adult world and learn to be alone with themselves while having better concentration.
Have mothers learned? For the sake of the baby’s better growth, let’s act now!
