Our children are born beautiful and gorgeous.
They are also born with the propensity to be self-pleasing and self-ruling.
We are to love them, enjoy them and teach them.
One aspect of our teaching is to gradually help them to manage their actions, thoughts and emotions.
In the toddler years we are mostly focusing on self-control of actions.
A day in which a toddler chooses when and how to play, eat and rest will strengthen the propensity to be self-ruling and self-pleasing.
A day in which the parent gently (oh so gently) guides and encourages a toddler through a balance of activities provides a platform for teaching self-control.
Every day, ordinary activities - all day, every day - provide teaching opportunities!
