Pediatrician, neonatologist Anna Volik told how to ease the period of adaptation to kindergarten for both the child and the parents.⠀
Going to kindergarten is stressful for many families. Moreover, it is hard for both the child and adults. Is it possible to live this period with minimal losses?
⠀
“It is possible! Follow the regime of the day. Put the child to bed and wake up at the same time on weekdays and weekends. The mode gives the baby stability, calmness and a sense of security, allows you to quickly get used to the routine in kindergarten, ”the expert notes.⠀
Teach your child self-care skills even before going to kindergarten. Teach him to wash his hands, go to the toilet, change clothes, eat with a spoon. Believe me, it will be much easier for him in kindergarten!
Try not to miss a visit to kindergarten, of course, unless there is a good reason for it. Even if you have the opportunity to stay at home with the child, it is better not to do this during the adaptation period. Otherwise, you yourself will harm discipline.
Do not be afraid that the child will often get colds. When a child is just adapting to the team, it is normal that he will often catch SARS. Up to 10 colds a year is the norm for children who visit the garden. This contributes to the formation of strong immunity.
Temper the child: dousing, air and sun baths, walking, temperature in the room – all this will help strengthen the immune system.
