When a child is born, parents effect their happiness almost completely by being attuned and responsive to their needs and surrounding them with a lot of love and enrichment. Over time, though this enthusiasm dwindles and diminishes, as children find happiness through relationships with peers and teachers through Early Years Education in Dubai. They also develop and build upon their own interests and hobbies, activities and achievements. By the time children become a teenager, a parent's power to turn on the happy button can be limited or nonexistent. This can be a disappointing and agonizing period for a parent.
Eventhough, parents can be powerless with inflicting happiness on older children, a parent's influence can play a big part, because for happiness to be genuine and resilient, it must be reflective of happiness within, and that “within” is shaped by the quality of life that a child experiences with the parent in the initial years.
Here are some tools you can give your child to create that happiness within themselves,
Let them comfortable in their own skin - Most youngsters are comfortable being themselves, and they retain a healthy sense and acceptance of self both physically and emotionally. As parents, we should be careful about the messages we send. Children receive messages primarily through a parent's action. A parent's words matter, too, because from infancy, they are listening to everything in their environment, not just the words that are directed towards them and learning about their place in the world. Communicating, touching, and holding babies and toddlers in a respectful manner teaches them that they are worthy. Be respectful about boundaries by giving children the consistent assurance they are in a safe nest with gentle, stable, caring people as practiced at the Early Years Nursery in Dubai. Accepting a children’s complete range of emotions, especially the difficult ones, is one of the most thoughtful ways of telling them that you love them.
Letting a child play on their own and develop motor skills is one way of telling children, that parent's trust them and also take a great interest in their self-chosen activities and the person they are turning out to be. Comfort in one’s skin doesn’t prevent children against pain and suffering. That’s life.
Character - It is observed that generosity makes a person happier. Kindness not only counts, it brightens the spirit. Children develop their character primarily through what they see in their parent's. They also need behavioral boundaries, but even then the actions and language that parent's model will always trump what they are attempting to teach. For example, teacher's at the Nursery Schools in Dubai teach children to 'share', say 'sorry', 'thank you', or 'be gentle' and show children what is to be generous, compassionate, grateful and gentle.
Social intelligence - The sense of sharing with others and experience a sense of belonging are essential to happiness. How children navigate their peer society and form rewarding relationships is largely being dependent on their relationship with their parent's and teacher's, their most powerful role models. When parent's are honest, direct, respectful, and loving with them from the beginning, these characteristics will become theirs. Babies and toddlers also benefit greatly from regular opportunities to interact with their peers in a safe environment. Children learn social skills naturally through play , exploration and by experimenting.
