Children have entered kindergarten life and started to have their own children's circle. He often warmly invites children to play at home, but one thing worries me a little. He began to feel that his parents interfered with his freedom to make friends. Parents who have the same troubles, here are some suggestions that may help you.

Provide a choice

When a child wants to play alone with friends, we can remind him to pay attention to safety and rules, and also provide him with some choices. For example, you can invite Enrique over to play now, and when his parents come back, you two can also go to his house to continue playing.

Firmly carry out

When we explain our decisions and reasons to our children, we need to implement them firmly. Don't be influenced by their complaints, pestering and noise. Remember, safety is the most important thing. We won't change our decision until something new happens.

A sober warning

When the children's noise becomes unbearable, we can give a calm and firm warning. For example, "if you kick the table again, you can't invite Enrique's children to play at home for half an hour."

suit one's actions to one's words

If the child doesn't accept your warning, we need to keep our promise. For example, "well, Tim 10 can't invite friends to play at home before 10: 30." If this doesn't work, we can say, "Stop arguing, or I will extend it to 1 1." Give him about half a minute to calm down and give him positive feedback.
