When babies are young, they are full of curiosity about everything and enjoy looking around. Of course, the first thing that babies are curious about is their own body. Most babies will touch their hands when they are young, and some mothers may be worried about whether it is not good for their babies to do so. So what's going on with the baby taking care of their hands?
What's going on with baby's hands
This situation is a manifestation of a baby's normal growth and development process. In fact, babies have been enjoying playing with their fingers since 2-4 months old. By the age of 6 months, babies should be able to hold toys on their own. It is important to train their little hands regularly, as there is a scientific basis for their dexterity. The development of fine finger movements can reflect the baby's brain development.
Methods for cultivating good habits in children
1. Raise awareness, or in other words, guide children to develop an interest in developing a certain habit.
2. Clear behavioral norms allow children to have a clear understanding of the specific standards for developing a good habit.
3. Timely role model education should be provided to cultivate a warm and desirable feeling in children towards developing a good habit.
4. Persistent behavioral training helps children develop a good habit from passive to active and then to automatic.
5. Timely evaluation and rewards and punishments, allowing children to develop good habits through successful experiences.
6. Create a good environment or atmosphere, making family life, school environment, and even social atmosphere a supportive force for children to develop good habits.
From this perspective, it doesn't seem strange for babies to touch their hands. It's just that babies start to be curious about the world and want to explore a series of unknown things. And for babies, their own hands belong to the category of unknown things, so taking care of them is not a bad thing. On the contrary, it is the first step for babies to step into the world.
