This practical life lesson is designed for 1 to 3-year-old children to teach children the art of wearing and removing their shoes.
Dressing skill is one of the most common developmental concerns that every parent and teacher come across time and time again. Teaching children how to wear and take off shoes is one of them.
Benefits of teaching children to put and take off shoes:
*It helps them to perform their tasks independently.
*It helps in strengthening the finger muscles.
*It increases concentration.
*It helps to develop order and hand-eye coordination.
5 Tips for parents while teaching their toddler to wear shoes
1. Promote independence: Encourage the child to wear the shoes independently. Guide them on how to wear it correctly.
2. Set the stage: Children might get confused between the left and right pair of shoes. Keep the shoes in the correct position to avoid confusion.
3. Boost confidence: To boost their confidence and promotes patience, use words like very good, you can do it, excellent, clapping, etc.
4. Demonstrate the correct technique of wearing shoes: As shown in the video, show children to hold up the tongues of their shoes or sneakers, wiggle their feet inside, and then press down to adjust their feet in them.
5. Ask the child to sit while wearing shoes: The child might lose their balance if they try to wear shoes while standing. Ask them to sit on a chair and wear their shoes.
Repeat this activity by asking your child to put on their shoes in the morning and take them off in the evening. Such activities instill a sense of confidence and independence in children.
