Ask child to teach you something she learned in school today. People remember 10% of what they read, 20% of what they hear, 30% of what they see. Music created especially for babies helps develop their sense of hearing, concentration and even speech Offer a nibble tray. Toddlers like to graze their way through a variety of foods, so why not offer them a customized smorgasbord! Do not heat breast milk in a microwave; it will destroy the immunizing properties. The single most important thing your child can do to prevent illness is to wash his or her hands thoroughly and frequently. Children aren’t the only ones who must behave properly during play dates. Parents need to respect each other as well. A cold washcloth or chilled teething ring can be soothing for tots who are teething. Don’t give baby a frozen teething ring, extreme cold may hurt. Although hectic schedules can present challenges, discourage eating on the run and random snacking. Instead, establish routines meals When do motor skills emerge? Running: as early as 13mos, kicking as early as 15mos, jumping as early as 21 mos Oatmeal, raisin bran, fat-free granola & Cheerios are good choices. If child is used to sugary cereals, gradually mix in healthier cereals while reducing sweeter stuff Don’t expect your toddler to sit still for a book. They may be moving, but they are listening. The easiest way to encourage your toddler to develop motor skills is to have them help with everyday activities like feeding and grooming themselves Your house may be toddler proof, but neighbors and relatives may not have the need. That means parents must be on particular guard when visiting others’ homes for safety. Using profanity, hitting, or other disrespectful behavior may be a direct result of ‘monkey-see, monkey-do’. Kids are looking and listening to everything we do. To measure your baby’s length all you need to do is lay her down on a flat surface and stretch a measuring tape from head to toes. By 12 months parents can start checking with the child’s physician to see if they have the neck development to safely go for a bike ride. Though they tend to have rounder more developed cheek muscles developed from sucking, breast fed infants gain weight at a slower rate than bottle fed infants especially after 6 months of age. Although timing varies widely, most babies begin teething by about age 6 months. The two bottom front teeth are usually the first to appear, followed by the two top front teeth. Don’t check your stroller unless you plan to carry your child in a sling. Most airlines will allow you to push your stroller all the way to the gate and then check it. Talk and sing to your baby. It is soothing to hear your voice. |
