In
play, children learn to interact with others and behave according to pr-established rules. Play has also been cited as a tool that children use for
morality development. Prior to 4 months of age, toys for infants should be colorful, high
contrast and simple. She may enjoy toys that make a sound when batted or
kicked, but have limited physical control. By 4 to 7 months old, he can
manipulate objects and use his hands independently, according to the
Consumer Product Safety Commission. From 8 months to 1 year, children
are mastering gross motor skills and learning about object permanence
through play. Push and pull toys are ideal for a young toddler
and he is apt to enjoy a sturdy play set or dollhouse. Toddlers can
begin to work simple puzzles, stack blocks or explore musical
instruments, according to FisherPrice.com. Simple pretend play begins at
this age. From 18 to 24 months, improved fine motor skills and
understanding allow him to use shape sorters. Better verbal skills open
up the beginning of social play behavior. Children may integrate toys
into their pretend play. "Pretend
play consists in part of detaching behavioral routines and objects from their
customary, real-life situational and motivational contexts and using them in a
playful fashion. The child who really
goes to sleep usually does so in bed, at bedtime, and when sleepy. The child who pretends to go to sleep will do
so in other places, times, and psychological states; the routine is
disconnected from its usual situational and psychological context"

Understanding your Kids Behavior.
Kids
are very joyful, outgoing and careless. As we see them they don't bother to
care of what's happening around. All they wanted to do is to play. There
innocent eyes and curiosity makes you think what are they thinking? Many kids
are too busy to have time to play creatively or relax after school. Kids who
complain about all their activities or who refuse to go to them might be over
scheduled. Talk with your kids about how they feel about extracurricular
activities. If they complain, discuss the pros and cons of stopping one
activity. If stopping isn't an option, explore ways to help manage your child's
time and responsibilities to lessen the anxiety. Parents can help prevent kids
from developing an eating disorder by building their self-esteem and
encouraging healthy attitudes about nutrition and appearance. If you become
worried that your son or daughter might be developing an eating disorder, it's
important to step in and seek proper medical care. In this site we can share to
you our insights of dealing with your kid’s behavior. These are just guide
lines of further understanding of what’s your kid is going through.
Normal behavior in children depends on the child's age, personality, and
physical and emotional development. A child's behavior may be a problem
if it doesn't match the expectations of the family or if it is
disruptive. Children tend to continue a behavior when it is rewarded and stop a
behavior when it is ignored. Consistency in your reaction to a behavior
is important because rewarding and punishing the same behavior at
different times confuses your child.Through us they know what's right from wrong, every time we correct their behavior they would not going to do it again. Reward system is one of our way to get our child's attention, every time you appreciate your child's good behavior they will not forget that and you give them the confidence to do the things they think is right.
