Washing Hands After Using Toilet
|
|
Description
Simply telling a child to do an adaptive behavior, such as washing his hands after using the toilet, or hanging her coat up after taking it off, will not likely cause the child to do the behavior more often in the short run. Getting a child to do self-help behaviors more often can be very challenging. But DayCarePro.com can help!
A great way to strengthen a child's self-help skills is by: (a) telling him or her how to do a desired self-help behavior (such as hand washing after using the toilet, or putting on a coat), (b) showing the child how to do the behavior, (c) having the child practice doing the behavior through a game, and (d) reinforcing the child for performing the self-help behavior. Your child will also love coloring in pictures about the self-help skill they are working on! The point is to get the child doing the self-help behavior frequently and easily. This way, the self-help behavior will turn into a habit that the child automatically does without needing reminders or help. Sound like a lot of work? DayCarePro.com makes it easy!
