Your angel is making great strides in his social skills now. This is the best time to observe the world around him and learn how to socialize. And your little one will leave no such opportunity at this age.
What you need to know
This is a formative age when kids learn how to socialize from those around them. Be careful on how to interact with everyone around you as your child is watching you more than ever. Your child will now move around in groups at school and learn how to be in a team, cooperate with others and manage conflicts.
What you can do
You must proactively teach your child how to meet and greet people and behave in social situations. This is a good time to teach them finer table manners and to follow rules and regulations of a place. Kids are highly perceptive and use of right words in front of them is very essential to ensure their language skills develop appropriately.
You need to ask them about their day and keep tab on their own behaviour by observing and interacting with them. This should then be complemented with guidance to the child by providing them on inputs on how to better deal with any social situation.
