Cultivating children to sleep on their own is a headache for many parents. When children are young, they are always held to sleep by their parents. When they grow up, they have to sleep separately, which inevitably makes them uncomfortable. Some children may cry and make noise. If parents lack experience, they cannot easily cope. How to cultivate children to sleep on their own?
1. Provide some psychological comfort to the child
To enable children to sleep alone smoothly, it is necessary to understand the reasons why children are unwilling to sleep alone. Most children refuse to sleep alone due to psychological fear and lack of security. When starting to cultivate children to sleep on their own, parents can give them some psychological comfort. For example, giving a child a teddy bear and telling them that this teddy bear can protect them can provide them with an extra layer of psychological defense, allowing them to sleep more peacefully.
2. Reasonably choose a bed
In order to help children adapt to sleeping alone as soon as possible, parents should choose a reasonable bed for their children. Whether the bed is in line with the child's wishes directly affects the child's mood when sleeping alone. It is best to choose with your child, and choose a bed with moderate height and a fence. This kind of bed gives children a sense of security and prevents them from worrying about falling off the bed, allowing them to sleep alone with peace of mind.
3. Be more patient
In the process of cultivating children to sleep alone, parents must be more patient and never scold their children. Try to spend as much time as possible with your child before they fall asleep. You can tell them some cheerful stories, which can help them relax and fall asleep faster.
