Parenting Tips:

  • Continue to read to your child. Nurture their love for books by taking them to the library or bookstore.
    • Let your child help with simple chores.
      • Be clear and consistent when disciplining your child. Explain and show the behavior that you expect from them. Whenever you tell them no, follow up with what they should be doing instead.
        • Help your child develop good language skills by speaking to them in complete sentences and using "grown up" words. Help them to use the correct words and phrases.
          • Help your child through the steps to solve problems when they are upset.
            • Give your child a limited number of simple choices (for example, deciding what to wear, when to play, and what to eat for snack).
