Parenting Tip #4 - Positive Recognition
Recognize the small good things that your child does. A positive remark can help foster good behavior. Say “very good”, “great job”, “job well done” and other positive lines if your child …
- puts his toys away after playing
- finishes the food on his plate
- brushes his teeth after a meal
- shares his toys with others
- takes a nap in the afternoon
- finishes his homework
- bring home nice artwork or project from school
- and so on
Let us appreciate many other little things that our children do everyday. Positive recognition can inspire our children to continue doing good things.
