22.01.2024 10:15

Many parents say nothing to their child when he or she is getting ready for bed. Or they limit themselves to the phrase "good night."

But this is a mistake. It is desirable that the baby hears warm words from mom and dad every evening.

In this case, the child will sleep better. The boy or girl will wake up in a good mood.

In addition, the relationship between the child and parents will become much more trusting.

Before you turn off the light and leave the nursery, say any of the following phrases to your baby while he or she is in bed.

"We love you"

This phrase will never be superfluous. It is very good if the baby is once again convinced that his parents love him.

"We are proud of you"

Let the child understand that the day was not in vain: tasks were completed, successes were achieved, parents were happy.

"Well done, you behaved very well."

It’s good if the baby hears praise from his parents before going to bed.

"We are sorry that this happened."

And this phrase is ideal if parents have had a fight with their child during the day.

Hearing such words from mom and dad, the baby will understand that they are not angry with him, and will sleep better.
