How old is your child?

Brain Development Step 2: Word Input Period 🧠✨

(1 year and a half)

When I say "Don't climb!," it somehow climbs. Crying

It was because of how the brain works 🧠💡

From around the age of one and a half,

It is an important time to absorb the meaning of words more and more.

But actually... I still don't understand negative words! 🙅‍♀️

When asked "Don't climb,"

The brain imagines the word "climbing" that it knows 💦

Take a breath before scolding your child.

Please tell me specifically what you want me to do ✨

(Example)

Instead of "Don't climb," "Let's go down."

Instead of "Don't run," "Let's walk."

Comment "❤️" if you want to try it!

... Read more私も子育て中にこの「言葉のインプット期」の特徴を知ってから、接し方を変えてみました。この時期の子供は言葉を単純に音やイメージで捉えるため、「〜しないで」と否定文で伝えても「〜する」動作をイメージしてしまい、逆にその行動をしてしまうことが多かったです。 例えば「走らないで」と注意しても、子どもの脳は「走る」という行動に強く反応してしまうので、つい走ってしまうことがありました。そこで私は、なるべく肯定的な表現で具体的に伝えるように意識しました。例えば、「歩こうね」「ゆっくり行こうね」といった言い換えで、子どもの理解を助けました。 また、この時期は言葉のインプットだけでなく、聞いた事柄のイメージ形成も活発です。なので、体を動かしながら一緒に言葉を使う遊びや語りかけが効果的でした。例えば「下に降りようね」と言いながら手を引いて一緒に降りる動作をするなど、言葉と動作を結びつける工夫をすると、理解が早まったと思います。 私の体験から言うと、子どもが言葉の意味を完全に理解できるようになるまでは、親の接し方や言葉選びがとても大切です。いったん否定語にこだわらずに、やってほしいことをわかりやすく伝えることで、子供も安心して行動でき、育児のイライラも減らせました。 このように、1歳半頃からの「言葉のインプット期」は、言葉の意味の理解とイメージ能力の成長のタイミングと考え、ポジティブな表現を取り入れることが子育てを円滑にしてくれます。皆さんもぜひ試してみてくださいね!
