What should I know about caring for a 29-month-old child?

Development & Behavior

How should my child develop on the 29th month?

Fighting because toys often occur in preschoolers while playing. They can be very ferocious to protect their belongings and they will not just share it.

A special sign of this age is repetition. Your little one might want to eat the same food again and again, wear the same clothes for days, or do the exact same thing. Remember that he tried to feel the world, and doing the same thing was the way he practiced control in the turmoil of life. In other words, habits create comfort.

The way of thinking develops is called spatial representation or symbolic thinking. Basically, this means he can see something with his inner eye. Because of his experience and the habit of making new connections to his brain, he was more adept at describing things: how his favorite doll looked, the way to grandma's house, the food he ate yesterday, and so on.

How can I help my child develop on the 29th month?

To avoid a fight, you must:

• Example of how to share and use the word "share": "Will you share biscuits with me?"
• Disperse the fight by getting rid of the contested item and move the child to something else: "The car needs rest now. Want to play bubbles? "
• Show older children who are sharing.
• Hide her favorite toy when another child comes to play. 2 year olds do not want other people to use their favorite objects.
• Do activities that involve sharing activities that each child can do, such as playing clay or drawing.
• Praise your child when he shares. Positive praise is a great teacher.
• Help your child strengthen his memory by asking what he knows: "What is his friend's name Mickey Mouse?" For example. Also ask what happened today to recall: "Did you eat vanilla or chocolate ice cream?" At night, ask him to tell the day, "What have you done today? Come on, tell mama! "

Children suck thumbs because they are comfortable and soothing. Your child may do this habit while still in the womb and during the baby. Now he does it again when he is tired, afraid, bored, sick, or is adjusting a challenge such as starting his daily activities or school. He may also do it to help him feel sleepy when he wants to sleep or when he will put himself to sleep again when he wakes up in the middle of the night.

My attention

What should I pay attention to on the 29th month?

Small children and adults sometimes have bad breath. The following are possible causes:

• Dry mouth. If your child breathes through the mouth, the bacteria in his mouth develop more easily.
• Foreign object. Peanuts, seeds, small toys, or other objects that he put into the nose can make bad breath. This often occurs in infants and toddlers, who are known to like to insert objects.
• Poor cleanliness. Normal bacteria live in the mouth and interact with leftover food between teeth, on the gum line, on the tongue, or on the tonsil surface at the back of your child's throat. This causes bad breath especially if the leftovers are long in the mouth.
• Eat spicy food. If your child eats like garlic and onions, the smell of his breath can be affected.
• Illness or a condition. Circumstances such as sinus infections, tonsils or seasonal allergies can cause bad breath. And some children with gastroesophageal reflux have foul breath.
