Many parents face numerous difficulties when getting their child ready for kindergarten.

The child sometimes whines, sometimes is capricious, sometimes dresses slowly, sometimes refuses to leave the apartment at all.

As a result, getting ready takes too much time. Mom and Dad get irritated. In addition, they develop a fear of being late for work.

How to make a child faster and less capricious?

Saving phrase

To speed up the preparation of your child for kindergarten, you need to offer the child to play one “game”.

Tell your child the following: “Whoever gets dressed first wins!”

If possible, promise some kind of reward for winning the "competition."

A motivated and enthusiastic child will most likely immediately forget about his whims. He will immediately start putting on pants, a sweater, boots and a jacket.

Be sure to give the child the "victory". If you get dressed faster, you will upset the baby.

And if he becomes a "champion", then two positive results will be achieved at once. Firstly, the preparations will be very fast. Secondly, the child will go to kindergarten in a great mood.
