– Routine: Children thrive on routine. Once they perform these tasks daily, they will begin to accept them as the norm.
– Fun: Make a beard out of those bath bubbles or turn a runny nose into a horn blowing impression. Children love repeating fun tasks.
– Example: Let them witness you getting ready or washing your hands before you cook. Your child won’t naturally pick up on these habits; he needs to see them practiced!
– Talk: Explain the importance of grooming. Children are naturally curious creatures, so explaining germs can help them understand why hygiene is so important.
– Reward: When a child knows that they have a new toothbrush or a cool bath toy waiting for them to use, the task is less of a chore and more of an exciting new experience.
