Goodness of Empowerment for kids

Goodness of Empowerment for kids

Engaging your kids in the community comes so easy as early when they have social life and interaction with other kids and people outside the house. And how are we going to do that? Parents who are too busy at work and they can’t leave nor absent themselves from work may need to have a nanny service. It is crucial that you find someone you trust to take care of your child. So of course, it would really be essential that we also take some parts other than hiring a nanny on how we can empower our kids at a young age. Generally, kids nowadays can easily understand things.

Though we still have to back up when the nanny is not around or a live-out, during our free time, we may still engage with our kids in a more personal way. How? During bedtime, we may also lay down beside them, read some stories where they can pick up good lessons and that they can live up with it. Giving them some instructions that their mind can pick up at their age and as they grow so they would be able to do things by themselves. Empowering is like inculminating them a ” I Can Do It” attitude. Other times are when you are having lunch or dinner with them. You can engage quite a great talk with them.

In a way that we check them if they truly understand you and the way things you are teaching them is really essential. We need to know how they respond to things and advices and how they feel about it. They must be aware on things around them, how to deal with them and how they may feel towards an incident that can be good or bad. It is mainly their reactions.

Giving them options to be able to give solutions on things. This would enable them to explore on how they will arrive to their own solutions to problems. Like we can ask them, ” What are you going to do when you see someone is locked on the door?” Giving them options like, ” I will try to help them by calling someone older than me, I will just ignore it, ask why if they will choose it, or I will call a police or could be other than those. Questions that would make them think about the answers would be fine. This is what normally we should do when our kids are 3 years old and up. Coaching is best even when we hang out with them not that often. They will surely remember this. Just inject it in a way that you are not forcing them do something against their will.

Letting them know that you are always there to support them and you know they can do it to boost their self confidence and that they can do things possible if they believe they can do it. Of course, giving them inspiration on how they can do it would be best like telling them, never miss to eat their meals, play and learn, be alert and always communicate in any way they can to ensure they will be guided. Encouragement is the key to make them more confident so when at times you are not around, it will be more fun when a nanny engage with them coz they know how to engage themselves. Empowered kids in the community is what we should see and mostly they are disciplined. We really can expect imperfections in decisions but learning that “They can DO IT” is great.
