Most want to say
Yesterday's news is a nightmare for families like us who travel internationally a lot.
In contrast, the baby smashed her heart and mouth, but at least every day there was a big living person dangling in front of her eyes.
There is also a slight improvement in the live jumping, which is very good.

Last week, there was a crooked building in the message area, crooked into people's hearts.
I happened to be chatting with a friend who had two babies at home on the weekend.
She had previously thought about the safety of her baby, but she was stunned that she had been "dragging two" at home for a month and a half.
I want to open it after a month and a half...
If you don't send yourself, you really have to go to the psychiatric department, and the two babies often face a state of collapse.
The primary 7 next door class has also recently had a succession of positive cases, and the kindergarten has closed its doors every three or five minutes.
“To be open, or not to be? ”
It is estimated that the director of the kindergarten is tortured by the heart 1,800 times a day...
Then again, it is fortunate that the second child has not come to report for a long time. Otherwise it is constantly more strange, hehe ~ (can not eat grapes to say grape sour)
Writing is not like cleaning and cooking, I really can't use it wholeheartedly.
The flow of the heart is broken, the thoughts are drifting, and the previous sentence is forgotten...
Squatting and carrying babies at home, fighting not only technical warfare, but also psychological warfare.
However, the voice of each baby and the mother is different, and the "home squat" posture may not be exactly the same.
For female dolls under the age of three and a half and male babies before the age of six and a half (age I said blindly), it is indeed difficult to ask them to play with themselves for a long time.
Like my baby girl, four and a half years old.
Usually, she was reasonable, and 63.8% could listen to it. As for whether you are willing to do it or not, there are many comprehensive factors to consider.
Press your stomach ~
I will first throw out our "fancy home squat move", if there is a supplement, see you in the message area!

Identify partnerships
On the first day of squatting at home, I first invited Little 7 to sit down and drink a drink (juice) and talked to her about what is called "partnership".
You have a good time at home, and not everything is the responsibility of your mother.
Mom also has a mother's business, and you can't just circle around you.
We're going to do the cosmic invincible "Strawberry House Squat Combo"!
I don't know how much she listened to, but every day after breakfast I would repeat this passage in a different way...
Strawberries today, Bananas tomorrow.
The schedule of activities is relatively regular
Children have a regular schedule in kindergarten. If they disrupt this routine, they will also feel that something is wrong, but they can't express it.
So although staying at home, the day schedule still has to have a "rough" pattern and rhythm.
For example, put the "cognitive activities" that require brain use in the morning. By the way, I directly cut off the idea that I wanted to see the anime when I came together in the morning.
Just go to sleep in the morning, the best energy, the brain turns faster!
Attention is easy to concentrate.
I explained it to Little 7 in this way, and she thought it made a lot of sense.
In the afternoon, you can schedule some more relaxed free play, indoor exercise, screen time, and more.
(Moving outdoor sports indoors)
Attention!
Relaxing screen time be sure to schedule at the end of the day. The length of screen time also depends on the day's overall score.
Small 7 self-hi activities are roughly arranged
morning
Thinking class that requires brain use / art class that needs to be focused / reading and reading
After lunch
More relaxed free play sensory class/building block class
afternoon tea
Listen to audio stories/
Click to read the book/
Big movement
Before dinner
Watch children's shows, or play interactive games with screens, and prepare dinner with me
Make the environment inviting
Baby shouting tired, shouting boring, shouting is not interesting. It's not really because there are no books, no toys, no fun!
After following us bloggers for so many years, can we buy fewer books and toys?!
In fact, the cognitive environment at home can also be set up to be more "inviting".
In layman's terms, it is more tempting!
It's like putting fruit in the fridge and I never remember eating it. But if someone cuts a plating and inserts a toothpick, they will send a piece to their mouth when they walk by.
(Don't think about it, net diagram.... ）
So how can we make the home environment more inviting, so that children are willing to participate?
Choose 2 to 3 different types of toys each time,
Pave into a "hands-on" state.
Remember, be sure to give your child the feeling that "you only use your clothes to reach out, and your food to open your mouth"...
For example, you want them to play with blocks. Just open the brick box and lay it on the floor, or set up a shape yourself in advance.
(This castle in the sky was set up by teammates the night before)
You want them to play with clay. You can sneak one yourself and then open the clay box and place it on the floor.
You want them to take the initiative to pick up the pen to draw. You can put the brush stand well, the large white paper is laid out, the brush wash is well typed, and a few seals are thrown next to it seemingly randomly.
(Little 7 recently liked to study watercolor color lead)
Finally, remember to clear a clearing (including a corridor) so that your child can exercise at any time.
Rotation timing rules
Little 7 and I have an agreement:
Mom works for half an hour first, if you don't argue with me at all during this time. When that time comes, I'll play with you for half an hour.
If you affect your mother during the period, you can only play with you for 20 minutes when the time is up.
It worked perfectly for us!
So far, Little 7 has won a Grand Slam every time, and not once has I only been played for 20 minutes (sometimes I need to be warned 1-2 times).
As for the length of time, it must be based on the age and ability of the child.
Remember, don't easily push the limit limit!
For example, Xiao 7 usually spends up to an hour of concentration alone (not referring to watching cartoons), so I set the time required for her "self-hi" to "half an hour".
How the time is up!
Once the child feels that this requirement is not difficult to meet, the confidence in himself increases little by little.
Then the next time it comes to "self-hi time", it will be a little more active, a little less unhappy!
The event schedule is diverse
In the time of "playing with you for half an hour", as long as there is a mother, you can play anything.
But if you want your child to honestly stay and play by yourself, then the activity must be arranged with meat and vegetables.
There are two lessons:
It can't all be cognitive activities, even games/board games.
This kind of game, even if the child is interested, is easy to make the brain tired. So it's best to schedule, and preferably in the morning, and fork off from other relaxing activities (such as sports and art).
Sensory free play is best suited for saving the field.
For preschoolers, sensory free play can easily immerse them in it in exchange for the freedom of moms for a longer period of time.
There are only two things we have to do:
Throw a topic beforehand
Clean up the scene afterwards
For example, print out the topic that the child is interested in, cut it out and spread it on the bottom of the basin, and cover it with some sand or rice. Then hand them a brush and pretend to be an archaeologist.
If you don't have time to prepare, just throw some containers and tools of different sizes into it, and the child will play with it himself.
If there is no power sand at home, you can also replace it with rice.
(This picture shows a classmate sharing with me a sensory basin made at home)
Sensory free play also includes playing with water (by the way, taking a shower today), playing with paint, and so on.
Size items are interspersed
Whether it is a child's "self-hi" or our "playing" project, you can intersperse the big and small projects!
For example, it takes a long time to complete a relatively large production with the child. That would be enough to satisfy the child's enthusiasm for "cooperation"!
It took Me and Little 7 to complete a model production.
During the "self-hi" time, she will prepare the parts herself (buckled out of the template) and install them first according to the drawings. The rest waits for me to come along.
Whether it's a "structured" or "unstructured" game.
Many times children can't play on their own because we haven't given them a "project goal" beforehand.
Before the project starts,
Let's start with a small project request.
This helps your child build a sense of purpose and stay focused.
With the help of "plug-in foreign aid" to accompany the baby
There are three major "plug-in foreign aides":
Screen time
Audio stories
Click to read the picture book
See the Kindergarten of Little 7 play Osmo (an educational game that combines physical and virtual)! If the kindergarten is still closed like this, I plan to buy a few sets to use for the family.
During the epidemic squatting home, Little 7 had edutainment screen time almost every day. It generally adds up to an hour or so, but it won't be scheduled in the morning.
The content and length of time seen are related to the performance of Little 7 on the day.
If the overall performance of the day is better, she can choose the cartoon/children's program/app she wants to watch; otherwise, she can only choose the choice I specify.
In addition, eyeless audio stories are also a good choice.
We generally arrange for afternoon tea. Arrange a comfortable seat for your child, pour a small cup of tea, put on a few small cookies, and play a fascinating little story...
Don't be too "Ge You Lie"!
I also have a friend who will record some picture books myself. When the child wants to listen, just play it directly
Finally, the reading pen is also my best savior!
The content of the click reading is preferably read with the child before.
In this way, when children read on their own, it is easier to read it.
If it is the first time for the child to read it by himself, it is best not to elevate the content too high, and you can also choose some music to read picture books. It is easier to attract your child's attention.
(My family's two point reading pens)
The division of housework is also play
The "self-hi" time period of Little 7 is basically all my writing time. When doing housework, I am not afraid of her calling mom~
Because of the need to prepare a dinner, too many scraps can be given to the children.
Brothers and sisters who can't use knives, tear a vegetable leaf by hand and peel a bean?
If the above tricks are used up, there are two last killer skills that can be "temporarily" resisted:
On new toys
On the teammates
This arrangement is still quite colorful?
Although it is not as comfortable as in kindergarten, the child is still happy. I'm a little tired, but I can barely do what I have to do.
A while down...
Little 7 has gone from being "forced" to take the initiative to learn for half an hour, to now easily passing the time on their own.
Is it a "surprise side effect"?
Finally, let's have some bitter fun. I look forward to the epidemic passing soon
Health workers, you have worked hard!
This day and day, fancy is quite right...
Stay safe,
Little 7 Mom
