Hi Guys,
Here are some tips for teaching 3 yr old kid. I collected them from friends,website and her teachers.
- Talk frequently with children. Just use short sentences, ask questions, and
listen. - Encourage the child to say complete sentences like "Yes flower is yellow in color"
- Teach children names of people like uncle's,father's etc..
- Provide picture books to child for reading pictures and read the same books to them.
- Count objects of interest for example colors,pencils,pens,toffees,dolls
- Encourage child to read and sing nursery rhymes.
- Tell child a story, Encourage child to repeat a story and
discuss the ideas and events. - Encourage interest in reading and writing by sharing a grocery list or
note for parents. - - Explain why and how things happen for various simple science activities like magnetic attraction,freezing water, planting seeds, making a terrarium, and flying kites on a windy day.

Five pre-requisited for child development
Sunday, September 07, 2008
I read about pre-requisites for normal development on www.indiaparenting.com. This article listed advancements in speech and language for communication.
1. Normal Hearing: Speech and hearing is acquired primarily through hearing. However maturation of child's hearing occurs systematically in early months and the child gradually learns to comprehend the spoken language.
Through initiation and adult speech, the child learns to express himself through speech.
2. Stimulating Environment: A stimulating environment refers to environment which provides adequate verbal interactions. More social is environment east for child to learn responding.
3. Normal Intelligence:This refers to child's mental capacity to reason, to make associations and generalizations, and to store items in memory. Child stores what it observes and then tries to correlate it with various events. In other words, a child can talk only as well as he can think.
4. Normal Coordination of Body Movements: Dancing,Playing etc.. helps speech to rapidly coordinate with physical movements. Hence help to develop motor skills. It is a very rapid and complex motor art and requires finely tuned neurological regulation and normal coordination of body movements controlled by the brain.
5. Adequate physical and Emotional Health:Physical,emotional intelligence developed with the positive environment developed around the child. This is necessary to support the growth of language.

Introducing Parents Tips n Tricks
Hi All
This is an introductory post for Parenting Tips n Tricks blog. When my daughter was born I used to fiddle books to know more about different advancements in a child as he grows. From few weeks to few month to few year I found there is so much to know about different stages of development. My daughter is 3 now I feel apart from physical development we need to pay attention on mental development,psychological development and social development of child. This blog is in no way a techie blog which talks about technicalities of child development. It is a space where the mom's can get along and share there experiences and knowledge with each other. Being a mom I feel many times u want to know what other mom's do in a situation,how do they react,what is the best way to teach a child. I just give one e.g. my daughter had her first fancy dress competition I was too confused and nervous what to do, how to do. I inquired friends, searched internet and then decided on a theme I think sharing is the best way of gaining knowledge and with this thought in mind I started this blog
and for making it successful I need contribution of all mom's who will like to share. I have mailed link to some friends and have provide writing access to them. Any one who want to write will definitely get access for the same.
