Toddler

you may need to convince kids who’re old enough to understand, why you’re moving in the first place. Dealing with the challenges of a headstrong toddler? That “terrible two” may be a breeze to move compared to your 14-year-old, who won’t want to be pried from his or her social circle.…

The Sims 4 The Sims is a life simulation video game designed by Maxis. Sims 4 is the fourth title in the series produced by the company Electronic Arts (EA). The latest version was launched in North America in late 2014. However, that release was only compatible with Microsoft Windows systems.

their technological abilities are often ahead of their emotional maturity and judgement, and the usage of IT devices is most likely to increase, not decrease, as children grow. Learning via touch screen relies on visual input to the brain. Infants, toddlers and young children need sensory activities as they are not at a level of abstract thinking where they can benefit from screen usage. They need direct, firsthand experience with materials and equipment that challenge their thinking and problem…

Two toddlers, that is what the modern democracy system in America can be easily compared to, one republican and the other democrat- both with drastically different ideals. Both of these toddlers can be categorized as their own forms of demagogues in one-way or another. The ways the two demagogues argue is alarmingly similar to children: One holds the claim that they are inherently better, thus coming to the conclusion that they can do no bad while bad is all their opponents can do. Patricia…

Toddlers toddlers everywhere! There are over 1.9 billion children over the world and 74 million children live in the United States. Children explore the world and questions their surrounding every minute and every second. They grow at a flashing speed, but they are not the only one that learns with their growth. Doctors, or more specifically, pediatricians, also learn as they treat their patients and watch them grow. Pediatricians are medical doctors that specialize in children and their…

Think about the freedoms you experience in your daily life. Are those freedoms permanent? Can they be taken away? In my opinion, freedoms are never permanent. They must be won repeatedly. There will always be someone that wants to take freedoms away. This means that you will always be fighting to keep your freedoms, or even to gain them back. This pattern of gaining and losing freedoms can even be seen in normal households. Suppose a child draws on the walls. As a punishment, the parent may…

In a world most adults see as black and white, suffocate from boundaries, and grimace at the age-old toddler questions, there is hope and understanding. In the same world we have an abundance of toddlers seeing a rainbow of grey, understanding the sky’s the limit, and the famous question “Why?” brings a sparkle to their eyes and understanding to their soul. It is because of the brave adults that continue to see grey, except the sky has no limits, and continue to ask “why?” we have the…

In 1987, Baron-Cohen introduced the theory-of-mind hypothesis of autism. In his hypothesis he gave an explanation for the social and communication disabilities in the autism disorder. Baron-Cohen’s tests showed that most children with autism with greater mental and verbal abilities than a four-year-old could not pass the same tests as the four-year-old could. These tests included the Sally-Anne false-belief task which involves a story in which Sally leaves her doll in a basket and goes out to…

As a parent, we are told from the first sign of pregnancy on what to do, when to do it, how to do it. A woman is not allowed to have lunch meat, or alcohol during pregnancy. When the baby is born, we as parents are told what immunizations a baby needs, and how many times. We are even told how to feed the baby, breastfeeding is pushed and formula is frowned upon. When a parent chooses formula, we are told what kind, how often to feed the Baby. Even the pediatricians that we take our children to…

children are developing their dispositions for learning and they are often highly involved and focused on an activity they enjoy; this is when I believe we are able to aid their learning. We can do this by adding to the activity, for example, if a toddler is enjoying a simple shape sorter we could move on to a more difficult one to challenge their learning. We can also cooperate with them verbally putting names to colours and shapes, this also helps build on relationships with children in your…
