How many times is your child hearing the word NO?

 

When children get to the next phase, the one after the “everything you do is cute” phase, they are told, “No.” I call it the NO phase. They went from doing everything right and now they are willing to try new things and all they hear is: No, don’t get too close to the baby, No! Don’t push your sister. No! Don’t throw your food. No! Don’t chase the dog. No! Don’t stand up in the bath. No!

Kids are moving on to the next phase and we can up our game. We need to remember that we use to get so happy for every new thing they did. We need to remember they are willing to try new things and kids need reminders. They know, but their brains are growing so fast. We are here to remind them.

Predict. You are smarter than them. If you don’t predict then you’re not watching. You will see them start to get closer and closer to the baby. You just happened to look when they were kissing her face. They were frustrated with their sister before they decided to hit. Yes, we have told them not to. But they forgot.

Maybe, it’s not the NO! phase, it is the “I have more freedom phase and I am willing to try new things.”

Remember: Predict and Watch. They aren’t ready yet to be left in the room with a baby. They aren’t done hitting.
