It is important to remember that children can not feel overloaded and need time to play freely, rest and perform other activities without prior programming.
Children prefer to have a schedule with fewer activities to achieve them, instead of a very tight schedule, they do not have time to have fun. Do not forget that unforeseen events occur and that everything that involves children must be done with more calmness and patience.
In the home environment, routine can help make people's lives more peaceful and organized, because through this organization of time and activities, they can predict what will happen and also adapt to the next task.
It is essential that, when planning the daily life of children, parents take into account the peculiarities of each one. Some children manage to get out of class and go directly to an additional English or swimming course, for example, while others need intervals between their activities.
See some suggestions below:
- Prepare for school in advance
Look to leave the snack and the backpack always ready the day before. As the child grows, encourage him to participate in that organization so that, later, she can perform that task alone and safely.
It is important to make a checklist, when possible, together with the child, everything that has to be inside the bag / lunch box.
- Schedule the post-school.
- Establish a regulated feeding.
In the diet, reserve a fixed time and place to prepare meals. In this way, the child begins to assimilate that this is the time of the meal.
Seek to organize yourself to sit with her at the table. If the child is small, it is important to have patience and calmness. Mount your plate similar to yours and explain that this is the time to feed it.
- Plan the whole week.
