Appreciate him as a unique individual. This helps develop his self-esteem and helps him understand that he is a capable, responsible individual. Learn to value yourself. When you can appreciate yourself for what you can do and who you are, it makes it easier to be a role model for your child. Family outings, such as going to the beach or park, enrich your child's experience.
Games are fun and can be educational aswell, especially when adults play, too.
Discuss what you've both been doing. Talk about ideas, talk about dreams, talk about everyday happenings at school or at work. Let your child begin making his own decisions at an early age. Make sure the decisions are within limits that fit his age and which you have set. She needs help in interpreting the meaning of what she sees and experiences and you are the one who can help her understand.
