Dedicating a bit of time to play or be “present” for our children It is the best gift we can offer you. Sometimes with the daily routine, work and other occupations we forget how important it is to spend some time playing, painting, watching a movie or doing something else pleasant with the children.
The message we convey when we are sharing some activity with them is that they are important. Work, do housework, do our hobbies, and then if we have some time to play with them; The children will immediately understand that spending time with them is something secondary in our lives.
If playing, hugging, listening to them, sharing their love, it is not important for you, for many toys and material goods you buy them you will not feel loved.
When a child does not feel attended, he exhibits behaviors such as: talking non-stop, asking many questions, changing sleep schedules, challenging orders, being susceptible, all of them in order to get our attention. Some children try to draw negative attention before running out of anything.
Remember to organize your time to devote a little to your child. A short period in which you are completely present, without paying attention to other matters, sharing their laughter, their joys, their games, an hour to comfort them and make them feel loved and important.
