解释了10个幼儿行为问题
1. Biting
他们为什么要这样做?
yeeeuuuch!Have you ever felt the sharp pangs of a toothy toddler sinking those baby teeth into you? You’re definitely not alone. Biting is common amongst babies and toddlers. Babies may bite to alleviate the pain of teething and to explore with their mouth. On the other hand, toddlers and young children may bite for a variety ofreasons:
- They may bite to express feelings they don’t know how to communicate.
- 他们咬实验,看看他们的反应can invoke.
- 如果他们感到被忽视,他们可能会咬人引起注意。
What you can do:
如果您发现孩子上的牙齿痕迹或看到咬人亲自掉下来,请首先安慰受害者。根据其严重程度,您可能需要清洁并打扮咬合。告诉biter,不允许咬人,这会伤害他们的朋友或家人。教他们说“不!”或“停止!”代替biting在将它们重定向到不同的活动之前。
2.投掷发脾气
他们为什么要这样做?
发脾气是幼儿的另一种表达方式。他们可能对有限的词汇感到沮丧,有时无法传达他们想要表达的内容。当挫败感发生时,发脾气就会爆炸。饥饿,精疲力尽和过度刺激也会触发tantrums。
What you can do:
It’s tempting to cave in to a toddler’s demands during a meltdown, but you need to stay calm. Move the toddler to a quiet space for them to get a hold of themselves and explain that to them. Stay with them to make sure they don’t hurt themselves in the process. After the storm has passed, encourage them to explain their feelings.
To prevent tantrums, know what makes the toddler tick — whether it’s getting tired in the afternoon or transitioning between activities. Tell your toddler ahead of time what they can expect to do next, or intervene when you see the tot getting worked up — divert their attention with a toy or give them choices for a sense of control.
3. Throwing items
他们为什么要这样做?
Throwing is a newly acquired skill to a toddler — one that takes fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. Throwing items is both exciting and experimental for toddlers — it allows them to see what happens to objects they release. That’s why you’ll see everything from toys to food goairborne。
What you can do:
通过“混乱控制”的心态处理投掷问题。小孩将继续投掷,但要教他们可以扔哪些物体,例如球和飞盘。如果他们把物品扔掉了,请把物品带走,并要求他们解释他们的feelings。
4. Running away
他们为什么要这样做?
当你设置了他们螺栓,曲折的on unsteady feet in any direction away from you. It can be alarming in public and a safety issue too. Toddlers aren’t running away to avoid you — they’re running because they love the feeling. Their newly acquired running ability and desire for independence make for a marathon of a combination.
What you can do:
Allow your toddler to run in a safe, open space where you can observe. If that’s not an option — like when you’re running errands — you’ll have to distract them. Have a toddler assist you with a task to empower them. A stroller is a good option, but keep them engaged with a toy so they don’t feel toorestricted。
5.尖叫
Why does it happen?
If you feel like your ears are going to shatter from toddler shrieks, squeals and screams, remember that it’s just another way for a toddler to enjoy and experiment with a new skill. Additionally, because of their limited vocabulary, toddlers may feel screaming is the only way to get their point across.
What you can do:
永远不要对你的孩子大喊大叫以停止大喊大叫。以安静的声音说话并拒绝电视或音乐来树立一个很好的榜样。当他们使用安静的声音。Try whispering to them to catch their attention, and remind them about “indoor” and “outdoor” voices. If your toddler is being unruly in a public setting, such as a restaurant, take them outside to get their “outside” voice out of their system.
6. Interrupting
Why does it happen?
你是否跟你的邻居或important phone call, toddlers don’t care. They want your attention now! A toddler’s short-term memory isn’t well developed, and combined with their poor impulse control, the urge to get your attention immediately isirresistible。
What you can do:
Interrupting behaviors plague toddlers, and unfortunately this doesn’t improve until the age of three or four. To combat interruptions in toddlers, approach with a “distract and divert” mindset. When a toddler tries to interrupt, acknowledge them by squeezing their hand and continuing on. Provide them with a toy or activity, such as a video, to divert their attention for the time being. And remember to always set a good example by not interrupting — toddlers learn byobservation。
7.击打和侵略性行为
Why does it happen?
While it may appear out of place for toddlers to exhibit aggression, rest assured that it is a completely normal part of the toddler experience. With a combination of impulsiveness and underdeveloped language skills, toddlers may act out their feelings in hitting or other aggressive behavior.
What you can do:
Declare a minute long timeout for a toddler that hits or is misbehaving. Consistency is key for setting behavior standards. Remove the toddler from the altercation to call down and with time they will understand their behavior and itsconsequences。
8.拉头
Why does it happen?
Similar to hitting, hair pulling can sometimes be an expression of frustration that they can’t put into words. It can also be a curiosity — hair pulling always results in an instant reaction for the toddler.
What you can do:
React to hair-pulling like you would to hitting. Pull the toddler aside and implement a minute-long timeout. Let them know that the hair pulling is not OK and that it hurt their friend or family member. You may want to offer the toddler an alternative, such as a stuffed animal, to take their aggression out. You can also play “hair stylist” to show them how to treat hair the正确的路。
9.挑剔的饮食
Why does it happen?
The world’s best chef couldn’t make a dish your toddler would eat — and you’re definitely not alone. Many toddlers exhibit picky eating, which can make dinnertime a nightly headache. Toddlers may defy dinner as an attempt to exert control and independence. Some may have sensitive taste buds that enjoy only bland foods. Some just don’t like change, including new foods.
What you can do:
Inspire toddlers to eat by eating the dish yourself as well. Have the toddler join the “One Bite Club” to try new foods. Often, picky eaters are also slow eaters, so give them the time they need to mull through the meal. And the meal may be better received if you give them a choice in thefood selection。
10. Bedtime resistance
Why does it happen?
It seems like resisting bedtime is hardwired into a toddler’s DNA. Even through the yawns and eye rubbing, toddlers fight for their right to stay awake. Ever curious toddlers don’t want to miss out on the action while everyone else gets to stay awake. And by resisting bedtime, they also attempt to assert their budding independence. It’s a way for them to gain a sense ofcontrol。
What you can do:
创建一个夜间例行程序,以便您的小孩知道会发生什么。您可以给他们简单的选择,例如在两本书之间选择阅读,以使他们有一种控制感。一旦灯熄灭,就会抵制他们在打电话时立即跑步的冲动。
现在你知道了…
为什么幼儿咬人?No, they’re not vampires … although they can be just as terrifying at times. Toddlers are mystifying, hilarious, frustrating and loveable all at once. But remember — you are the adult and ultimately in charge.
