Sometimes children become so engrossed in something that they stop noticing everything around them.

The child may not react to the parents' attempts to talk to them. If the child does listen to mom and dad, it will be inattentive.

However, there is one little trick that allows you to attract the baby’s attention or distract him from performing a dangerous action.

It is enough to say one simple phrase - and the child will immediately begin to listen to the parent.

What phrase are we talking about?

Do you need to get your child to start listening to you attentively? Then say this phrase: "Have I already told you about...?"

Hearing such a beginning, the child will immediately be distracted from doing some task.

Curiosity will take over: the child will want to know what exactly is being discussed. As a result, the boy or girl will enter into a dialogue with the parent.

Just don't forget to think about what story you'll tell your son or daughter in advance. You shouldn't make it up "on the fly."

By the way, the trick "works" not only when communicating with children. You can also use the psychological trick when talking to an adult: he will most likely also be interested in the story.
