\"Skills<\/figure>

Children develop at different rates, and parents may wonder if their child is on-track with their learning and development. There are many physical, emotional, social, and life skills that a child will learn as they grow. It can be overwhelming for parents to think about all the things a child needs to learn and accomplish as they mature. Here are four skills that parents can begin teaching their preschooler as the child learns to be more independent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Listening Skills<\/span><\/h4>\n

Listening is not just hearing the words that are spoken. Listening involves the preschooler\u2019s ability to hear the words, understand them, and then do something with what he heard. Parents can model being good listeners and guide their children too. A good listener makes eye contact, pays attention to the person speaking, does not interrupt, asks questions, and encourages the speaker with non-verbal communication like a smile or a head nod. When reading a story with your child, practice using good listening skills to ensure they understand the story, remember it, and can discuss it with you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Social Skills<\/span><\/h4>\n

Preschool is the perfect time to learn about sharing, taking turns, getting along, and working through conflict. Parents are building the foundation for skills that their child will continue to develop over their lifetime. Role playing is a great way to practice the proper way to respond in certain situations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fine Motor Skills<\/span><\/h4>\n

Fine motor skills are an important part of development, because it helps prepare a preschooler to write. One way to begin working those hand muscles, is cutting with safety scissors. Besides cutting with scissors and practicing tracing and writing letters, parents can do activities that use beads, crayons, tongs, and tweezers to help preschoolers develop their fine motor skills.<\/span><\/p>\n

Life Skills<\/span><\/h4>\n

Children will work on life skills throughout their childhood. Preschoolers can begin independently brushing their teeth or getting dressed. They can also help at mealtime by assisting in meal preparation, setting the table, and helping rinse or put away the dishes. In fact, preschoolers are ready to help with many household chores, including putting away laundry, dusting, wiping countertops, and vacuuming. Giving your child chores teaches them self-reliance and responsibility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is not a complete list! As your child grows and masters these skills, there will be opportunities to add new skills to the list.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
