Following are some things you, as a parent, can do to help your preschooler during this time:
Let your child help with simple chores.
Help your child through the steps to solve problems when she is upset.
Continue to read to your child. Nurture her love for books by taking her to the library or bookshop.
Encourage your child to play with other children. This helps him to learn the value of sharing and friendship.
Be clear and consistent when disciplining your child. Explain and show the behaviour that you expect from her. Whenever you tell her no, follow up with what he should be doing instead.
Help your child develop good language skills by speaking to him in complete sentences and using “grown-up” words. Help him to use the correct words and phrases.
Give your child a limited number of simple choices (for example, deciding what to wear, when to play, and what to eat for snack).
