4. laugh often
Telling jokes, making up some funny songs and laughing with children are good for you and your children. Just laughing is good exercise.

When children behave well, don't just say "good". Praise should be specific, tell details, and point out places that are impressive or better than last time, such as "It's polite of you to take the initiative to say good morning to uncle doorman today." However, we should also pay attention to praise and not develop children's false expectations. Some parents will reward their children with gifts or money, so that their children can focus on what rewards they can get, rather than doing well. Parents should let their children discover the satisfaction and sense of accomplishment brought by completing a thing, instead of rewarding him with material rewards.

Children like painting, dancing or playing music, and they will feel more satisfied with themselves.

A gentle hug conveys infinite care and is a silent "I love you". Studies have found that gentle touching and hugging can make premature babies healthier, more active and more emotionally stable. For adults, hugs can also relieve stress and calm restless emotions.
9. Listen attentively
Nothing can make children feel cared for more than listening attentively. Want to be a better listener? Don't listen with only one ear. When the child is talking to you, try to stop what you are doing and listen to him attentively. Listen to the child patiently. Don't interrupt, hurry to help him express himself or let him finish his words quickly, even if you have heard what he said many times. It is the best time to listen when you accompany your child to school or put him to bed.
10, give up perfectionism
We all expect our children to show their best, but sometimes we are too eager to correct or improve their performance, for example, we dislike that they don't wipe the table, but just wipe it themselves, or correct that they have to put things in a certain position. Demanding perfection in everything will weaken children's self-confidence and courage not to be afraid of making mistakes. Next time you can't help but want to get involved and help your child do things better, think about it first: Is this related to health or safety? Imagine, after 10 years, is this matter still so serious? If the answer is no, let the children do it.
