Small steps to neatness: how to teach your baby to cleanliness

30 окт, 08:48

Every baby has an independent desire to trash everything around him. But how to accustom the baby to neatness and make it cleaner and neater? It is possible, and there are some simple and effective ways to do it.

Dinner apron

The first step to neatness is teaching your toddler to stay clean after meals. Choose the right dinner apron or bib to protect your baby's clothes from food stains and streaks. If your baby is active and tends to scatter food, a wide apron is a great choice. It is important that this accessory is comfortable and attractive to your baby.

The next step is to establish the habit of using the apron before each meal. Explain to your baby that this is done to keep his clothes clean. Keep the apron near your baby's highchair so that he associates it with the eating process. In time, your baby will not sit down at the table without his "pretty apron."

Soft napkin

Another important aspect of neatness is teaching your toddler how to properly wipe his mouth after eating. Toddlers love to repeat the actions of adults, so if you use a napkin at mealtime, your baby will want to do it too. Start by placing a paper napkin next to your baby's plate so your baby can familiarize himself with it. Keep another napkin next to you so you can pick up what doesn't go into your baby's mouth.

When your baby reaches 7-8 months, suggest that he try wiping his dirty mouth with the wipe himself, watching your actions. Support and guide his hand by saying, "Look, I'm taking the wipe and wiping my mouth." Over time, each wipe will be used for its intended purpose.

Give your little one a beautiful plastic tablecloth plate holder with an attractive pattern. This will not only increase interest in eating, but will also make the eating process neater.

By following these simple steps, you can accustom your baby to neatness and cleanliness, making their lunches more tidy and tidy.
