Young mothers often make two diametrically opposed complaints: that the child does not speak, and that the baby chatters incessantly.
Today we propose to discuss the second situation: what to do if you are constantly followed by a little chatterbox who does not have “mute” and “volume down” buttons?
Accept it
Humility is the key to success for parents of children aged 2.5 to 4 years who talk non-stop. If the little ones do not have enough words, they can make different sounds, but they cannot remain silent.
In such cases, it helps to realize that this is a temporary stage of development that will pass with time. With age, children will learn to express their thoughts silently, to themselves.
Use your child's energy to good use
You can redirect your child's energy, for example, with the help of active games. Even if you are at home, play active games for 10 minutes, for example, run around the room after each other. This will lift your mood and the child will be silent for a while.
Of course, you can keep the dialogue going by asking your child questions. Children think outside the box, and their stories can be interesting.
Introduce your child to the rules
Think about and tell your child the rules in advance - when he is allowed to make noise and distract you with conversations, and when he needs to be silent.
