In the process of raising a child's growth, there will always be a variety of "novelty" problems that you can't imagine, and at this time, parents need to practice a pair of "fire eyes" to distinguish between "true and false", what is the child's continued development, and what behavior needs parents to intervene to stop.
In the face of children's problems, each parent will have their own ideas, even if the family will have differences in the management of children, improper handling will also cause family conflicts.
I believe that every child will be in this stage of "eating hands" behavior, which is a compulsory course for children's growth.
Generally when the baby reaches the age of 6 months, it begins to enter a new stage we call the oral period, which is a period when the baby loves to explore and recognize this new world with his mouth. When you put all the things you see and can get in your hand, you put them all in your mouth to "taste", and when you see something out of reach or nothing to "taste", you begin to look at Mei to quench your thirst, and put your fingers to your mouth to "eat".
Children at this stage will be very fond of eating hands, whenever they encounter happy or afraid, they are accustomed to using the behavior of eating hands to show their joy or comfort themselves, which is the development process of children's growth, at this time parents should be in place for their children's hand hygiene, can not control the child's mouth, we will do a good job of hygiene.
The child's "eating hands" behavior will bring some help in future development.
1) Character formation
Do not underestimate this small action, is a small finger eating behavior, may be the child's key to alleviate the mood of the good way, in the child's own bad emotions, this can help the child enhance their own sense of security, affect the child's personality development. Some people have found that children who love to eat well when they are young are more inclined to be sunny and outward-looking and cheerful in their personality development when they grow up, and they are more positive and confident in doing things.
2) Physical coordination
Although only children are only a few months old, but for them to control the brain to put the hand into the mouth to eat, it is a behavior that requires the brain, eyes, hands, and mouth to be combined at the same time. Therefore, this eating hand action is very helpful for the exercise of the child's physical coordination ability, and also promotes the development of the brain.
3) Self-emotional management
Children generally do not control their emotions, and even some adults have not been able to do a good job, children whenever they encounter difficulties or unhappiness, they are accustomed to using crying to vent themselves, but if your children in others like to cry to express emotions, learn to use their hands to comfort and control their emotions, then your children must have superiority in emotional intelligence development when they grow up. Learning to self-control emotions is an adult skill that was mastered as a child, so you say it's great or not?
