Baby already knows how to do many things, such as eating with a spoon and making a mess. Don't underestimate him. Exercising his self-care ability appropriately can also reduce the pressure on his body!
Learn to wear shoes and socks
Once the baby can put on clothes, they can learn to wear shoes and socks.
First, put on the socks: fold the sock opening onto the heel, lift the heel and insert your foot into the sock until it reaches the top. Place your heel against the heel and then lift the sock opening up. This way of wearing can make the heel match the sock heel, making it comfortable to wear.
Then start learning how to wear shoes: the big toe is the longest, on the inner side of the foot, place the tips of the two shoes together, and let the baby recognize which shoe should be worn on the left foot and which one should be worn on the right foot. After repeated practice, the baby can proficiently put on shoes and socks by themselves.
This game can further cultivate babies' self-care ability, make them confident, and know how to distinguish between left and right feet.
Baby washing feet
Game preparation:
Baby's slippers, towels, soap, warm water
1. Before bedtime, let the baby wash their feet by themselves, arrange slippers, towels, and soap for the baby, and prepare warm water for the adult.
2. The baby takes off their shoes and socks by themselves, washes one foot first, uses soap to clean the crevices, instep, and sole of the foot, dries with a towel, and puts on slippers.
3. Put the other foot into the basin and wash it thoroughly.
4. After the baby is proficient, they can put both feet together into the basin.
Encyclopedia Warm Reminder:
When a baby washes their feet by themselves, they will have a feeling of being a "little adult". The baby will take off their shoes and socks as instructed by their parents and apply soap. After washing, wipe clean and put on slippers. After the baby can wash their feet by themselves, adults should let the baby wash them by themselves every night, so that the baby can persist and develop the good habit of washing their feet at night.
