Is, for the first time stands on his feet or tries to say something in his parrot language? Every small act, every new skill is a magical discovery for him. Montessori Baby Care understands this magic. This is not to teach children, but their natural development
Is made to support. The time from 6 months to 2 years is the most exciting phase for the child’s brain and body, where they learn something new every day but the question is- are we giving them the right environment?
Come, hold their hand in this journey step by step and know how the Montessori method
Can make your little star self -sufficient, curious and confident. This age
Every child grows differently, but there are some special activities that
Can be helpful in development.
At this age, children understand the world by touching, seeing, listening and feeling things. They start trying to move their hands and feet, sit and catch things. Some special activities can be done to increase their sensory development in the right direction.
Allow children to touch and feel things with different textures. Soft cloth, small wood items, soft sponsors and rubber items give them different touch experiences. In addition, their hearing ability can also be developed by giving tingling and light -sounding toys.
At this age, children learn to coordinate hands and eyes, so give them opportunities to catch small things. Place a light ball in front of them, so that they try to catch it.
Let the child play on the floor to increase the movement. Not too much in pillows or swings
Keep, rather give them a safe environment on the floor so that they move forward on the stomach
Learn This will strengthen the muscles of their body and they will move in the direction of sitting quickly and trend.
For dialogue and language development, talk to the child continuously. Whatever you are doing,
Tell him by speaking. Like- ‘Now we are going to bathe you or’ Look, this is a red
Is the ball. It develops an understanding of words in his mind.
This age is very exciting for the child because they now start sitting, standing and understanding small things. They begin to know that even if nothing is in front of their eyes, it is still present, which is called object paramanian. To explain object permanent
Play a game like Peak-e-Bow. Hide a toy under the cloth and let the child find it. From this they understand that things do not disappear, but only hide.
Let the child touch and lift the things around you. Give light wood blocks to them so that they can experience and lift them to connect and drop. This strengthens their motor skills and develops the ability to solve the problem.
Now the children try to stand slowly, so instead of giving a walker, give a chance to stand on the side of a small stool or table. This improves their balance and they move naturally.
Repeat the names of everyday things to encourage language development. As-
‘This is your book,’ Come on, drink water. This help in increasing children’s vocabulary
Does.
Now the child is moving fast and more freedom appears in his activities. They try to do things with themselves, such as catching splendid, drinking water and making small decisions. Give the child a chance to eat food by yourself, even if they make them a little dirty.
This learn to use their fingers properly and develop self -sufficiency. Give water in a small cup so that they learn to drink slowly. Creating routine is very important at this age. Decide regular time to sleep, play and eat so that the child can understand discipline. Include them in small tasks of the house, such as keeping a spoon on the table or raising your toys yourself.
To increase language skills, show children books with pictures and their names
Tell me Like- ‘This is a dog,’ this is a tree. With this they learn to recognize things.
At this age, the child learns rapidly and his imagination also starts increasing. They like to copy and try to repeat their parents’ activities. Roll play ges are very helpful at this age. For example, give them a kitchen set, doctor kit or toy telephone so that they can imagine that they are in a particular role. This develops their social and language skills.
Let the child take small decisions, like-
‘Which cup to wear today? This increases confidence in them and they think of themselves
Learn
Fine motor skills to strengthen them to draw and fill them
Give crayons. Wooden puzzles and screw twist toys also better their grip
Let’s make
Talk to the child and let them ask small questions. Like- ‘What is this? And
Then wait for them to answer. This makes them get used to speaking
And their language skills are better.
This Montessori Mantra
Let the child learn at his speed. Every child is different, so do not compare them. Create their environment so that they can learn by touching, watching and feeling things independently.
The most important thing, give them guidance with patience and love. When they try to do something by themselves, do not interfere immediately, rather give them a chance to fulfill. This makes them confident and curious. Montessori method is a great way for children from 6 months to 2 years.
By which they become self -sufficient, curious and confident. If we give them the right environment and opportunity, they will learn in their own way and will be ready for new challenges of life.
