Behavior and development
How does the baby develop?
A rich imagination is one of the best things that a baby has at this stage, of course we do not talk about times when the baby is scared because of the scary obsessions that the imagination brings. Two-year-olds can imagine almost everything because they not only see things with the naked eye but also with their mind, as evidenced by some kids who hate strangers or they are scared of you. doctors because in the old days had to suffer pain when injected
We can imagine a baby's brain is a honeycomb containing a set of daily activities that are connected together to be able to explain what, why, and how questions that babies see in life. . When babies ask questions, they are searching and trying to catch up with what everyone around them is doing, so that they can interact with their mother for longer and learn new words.
Your baby's toilet time has scored? One thing mom should know is that even though two-year-olds can't go to the toilet on their own, they're ready to learn this.
What do you need to do to support your baby?
Mom let your baby play doctor game and equip him with a small bag containing playing objects such as a stethoscope or thermometer and a little doll for her to have patients to examine.
Prepare your baby mentally for what he or she should do when going to see a doctor. For example, teach your child: "First I will go to the big table and say your child's name, then mum and you wait together and in the meantime I will read a great book ..."
If possible, have your baby sit on your lap during exams or injections.
You shouldn't lie to your baby with statements like: "This won't hurt at all." Or do not make promises that are not true, eg: “You won't get an injection.”, While the baby can actually get the shot.
Parents should always be happy because two-year-olds are the "master" of reading and understanding the mother's expressions and movements!
In addition, to help your baby's brain develop optimally, mothers:
Let your baby comfortably explore everything around the house;
Use every possible way to stimulate all of your baby's senses. Mothers can give babies toys that they can touch while playing, such as clay or sand, and sound-making toys such as a lute or rattle;
Take your baby to new places and experience: take him to a pool, zoo or airport, for example;
Keep books around your baby at all times and go to the public library to exchange books for your baby to read regularly.
