Childhood is the golden age to establish gender awareness. At this stage, parents can help their children better understand themselves and others and establish a correct gender concept through some methods. Here are some effective methods.

Observe and explore

Let children observe the differences between men and women, feel the differences in physique, clothing and behavior, and stimulate their curiosity.

Stories and ballads

Read some stories about boys and girls or play related songs, so that the baby can understand the characteristics of men and women in a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

Toys and games

Choose toys suitable for boys and girls, such as boys' cars and robots, girls' dolls and kitchen utensils to help children understand their hobbies and interests.

Sense of belonging and identity

In daily communication, use words such as "boy" and "girl" to strengthen children's sense of identity and belonging to their own gender.

Family and role model

Parents can give examples of men or women in the family, tell their characteristics and advantages, and set a positive gender role model for their children.

Expression and affirmation

Encourage children to express their views on gender, give affirmation and encouragement in time, and let children realize that their behavior is related to gender.
