About the world around us

Children often start talking random nonsense when you go somewhere, or ask a ton of questions when you are wildly late. Take the initiative into your own hands and start asking questions yourself - this will distract the child a little, and you will learn a lot of new things.

  1. What do you see around?
  2. Do you think it will rain today?
  3. Don't you think this cloud looks like you?
  4. What color are these birds? How do they sing?
  5. Are there a lot of people on the street today or not so many, what do you think?

About friends

Most likely, your child has already made his first friends from among his classmates in the kindergarten or playmates and playgrounds. Talk to him about them.

  1. Who is your best friend?
  2. Are you a good friend?
  3. Do you like to play with your friends in turns and not fight?
  4. What should friends do for each other?
  5. What's your favorite thing to do with friends?

PS Of course, this is only an approximate list of questions that you can change and transform according to your situation, feelings and taste. With this list we just wanted to show that there are quite a few topics that can be discussed even with a small child. We hope we've inspired you a little!

Why does a 3-4 year old child behave badly?

There can be many reasons for bad behavior. Child psychologists identify the main reasons that you should pay attention to.

  1. The child attracts the attention of adults. When parents are constantly busy and cannot devote time to the baby, he wants to attract attention by any means. Since a three-year-old does not yet know how to build a constructive dialogue, he begins to behave badly, be capricious, and cry. Let mom and dad scold me, but they’ll drop what they’re doing and take care of me.
  2. The baby is asserting itself. From about two years old, the baby begins to show independence. Surely moms and dads remember the endless repetition: “I myself,” “I myself.” Parents consider a three-year-old child to be small and try to take care of him in every possible way. And the three-year-old resists parental control, including through disobedience.
  3. The child takes revenge on his parents. Whims, hysterics, screams can be revenge for an insult caused by mom or dad. Parents may not even realize that they have hurt the baby. For example, my mother forced me to finish eating tasteless porridge, and my father took my tablet and forbade me from watching cartoons.
  4. Low self-esteem. If a child is disappointed in something, has lost faith in himself, he may behave aggressively and inappropriately.
