Games to get your child used to listening to you

Like all mothers, you are searching for a magical solution to help your little one listen to you. Keep in mind that your little one's focus is often distracted as he tries to discover the world around him, refusing any restrictions or orders he must follow. To find a solution, you must resort to games as an indirect way to train him and accustom him to them:

The bear asks you : This is an easy game that doesn’t require any effort. The idea is to imagine that the bear asks you to do the tasks you want him to do. For example, “The bear asks you to arrange the toys in the box.”

Treasure hunt : It is similar to a competition, as he gets a reward when he reaches the goal. It is in the form of steps that he must complete one after the other until he reaches the end and gets the treasure. Choose a simple gift so that he does not have high expectations every time.

Do you hear the sound? Focus on engaging your little one's senses to a greater extent, and begin to listen attentively. You can also add some fun by imitating these sounds, and over time, they'll acquire the skill of conscious listening.

His favorite song : Every little one has a favorite song that he never gets tired of and wants to listen to continuously without stopping. Take advantage of this by composing lyrics that contain the tasks you want your little one to do.

Writing a story : Stories always have a magical effect. They stimulate your child's imagination and give them the opportunity to imagine and take off. It is one of the most effective positive parenting methods. Try to bring the story's characters to life with real names. Change your voice as you transition from one character to another. Give the story a meaning and a goal that you want your child to follow. Encourage them to share the story with you by asking them how you expect one of the characters to behave in this situation. What are the consequences of this behavior?

Finally, don't worry if your little one needs some effort to listen to you and do what you ask, because he is busy with other things that are more important to him, and because carrying out orders is a boring task for him and he does not want to do it. Therefore, you must resort to some tricks to achieve the difficult equation of carrying out orders while he is happy and completely satisfied.
