When children were young, they fed them into their mouths, helped them wear clothes one by one, and wiped their butts again and again. Every time they accomplished something, they felt very satisfied and fulfilled.
But when children grow up, we must start to "be lazy" and let children learn to eat and dress by themselves, including wiping their butts.
is different from eating and dressing. Wiping the butt is done in places you can’t see, and wiping the butt also requires the movements such as pressing, twisting, and wiping. It has considerable requirements for fine movements of the hands and hand strength.
When can I let my child try to wipe his butt? There is actually no standard answer to the question of
. It mainly depends on two aspects: one is the degree of "lazy" of parents, and the other is the degree of acceptance of children.
If you are already "impatient to serve" your baby's shit, every time the baby shouts "Mom comes and wipes my butt" on the toilet, you have to let go of everything. Even if you are still eating, you can only put down your job. There is only one thought in your mind. When will I escape the nightmares brought to me?
Then at this time, you can start thinking and teach your child to wipe his butt.
Of course, when teaching your child to wipe his butt, you must also consider the child’s own acceptance. If the child is very resistant, it doesn’t matter if he slows down.
Each child has different acceptance levels, and they should not force their children too much. It is best to teach them in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, so that children are more willing to accept it.
How to make children interested in wiping their butts?
As the saying goes: Interest is the best teacher.
If the child is not interested in it actively, parents can also cultivate their children's interest in wiping their butts.
Parents can consciously read picture books about wiping their butts with their children, such as "I Will Wipe My Butt", "Ah, Pulling Out the Banana Boat", "Ah, Poop", etc., and can learn about the past and present of "poop" with their children, and learn how to wiping their butts.
When watching cartoons or in daily life, when you see a child wiping his butt, parents can also emphasize this behavior and tell the child: You can wipe your butt without the help of your parents, which is really amazing!
After a while of intentional or unintentional speaking, you can ask the child "indirectly": Do you want to try to wipe your butt by yourself? Just like the children in picture books or TV, if you wipe your butts clean, you can get up and play immediately without waiting for your parents or teachers!
When the child has a certain interest and willingness to wipe his butt, he can start to practice!
How to wipe your butt properly?
Adults always feel that it is natural to wipe their butts clean, and they don’t even need to think about it. However, for children, every step needs to be explained clearly and demonstrated repeatedly. Any step that goes wrong will lead to “very serious” consequences, such as not wiped clean, residuals on their hands, or paper stuck in the cracks on their butts.
Before wiping your butt, choose the appropriate toilet paper. If the toilet paper is too hard, your butt will hurt. If the toilet paper is too soft and easy to penetrate, it will not contain fluorescent. If conditions permit, you can also use cotton towel or wet wipes to wipe.
After preparing for so long, we are about to officially start learning!
- Step 1: Fold the toilet paper in half. This action looks simple, and if you don’t teach it carefully, the child will rub it randomly.
- Step 2: Tell the child what wiping is. After folding the paper, the child can first wipe the table and the bench so that he can experience the feeling of wiping things. You can also find a doll to dirty the doll's butt, and let him wipe the doll's butt first, and find the feeling and method of wiping the butt.
- Step 3: Press the folded paper vertically into the crack of the butt. After pulling the stinky smell, the cracks in the butt will be wet. Pressing the paper into it will suck away the wet part.
- Step 4: Wipe the dirty part. When rubbing, draw a semicircle on your butt with your hands, hold down the "Chrysanthemum", and wipe a semicircle on each side. This will prevent the dirty stuff from being rubbed from one place to another. Pay attention to wiping from the side of your butt to the bottom of your butt, and try not to put your hands in from the front.
- Step 5: Change a piece of paper and wipe it from front to back two or three times until it is clean. Be sure to wipe from front to back, especially for girls. If the wipe is reversed, it is easy to bring dirty things to the vicinity of the genitals, which is easy to get infected with bacteria and even inflammation.
- The sixth step, which is also a very critical step, is to check whether the butt is wiped clean and whether there is any residual toilet paper in the cracks on the butt.
In the eyes of adults, it is not necessarily so easy for children to complete, and may even take about half a year of training.
As long as the children make a little progress, they should encourage them, mobilize their enthusiasm, make them feel fulfilled, and feel that their efforts are worth it.
If you don’t finish well at the beginning or waste a lot of paper, don’t scold me. These will take time to practice. The child will care very much about his mother's evaluation of him. If he keeps criticizing him and makes him feel afraid of difficulties, he will not be willing to do it by himself.
Review again and teach the child the entire process of wiping his butt:
1. Cultivate children's interests: Comprehensive combination of picture books, animations, life, etc.:
2. Disassemble it into small steps: prepare toilet paper, fold it in half, and wipe the butt in all directions
3. Check
4. Patient demonstration teaching
5. Practice more
6. Praise more
6. Praise more
0 Don't look at the small thing about wiping the butt, but if you learn the method, you can become "migrating and replicable skills" and use it in other abilities that require self-care. If you encounter skills that your child cannot learn in the future, you can compare these 6 steps to try it!
