- GH 1850
The tot under five or six faces
many perils from sharp and
pointed sticks and cutting in
struments. Scissors and knives
are very alluring to him.
It's not enough merely to keep
these beyond his reach, he must
also learn to avoid them as ''un-
touchables," WI never found this
much of a problem with our chill
dren when they were little; nor
have we with the two grandchil-
dren now 312 and 2, who have
been with us for two summers.
Allowed in Kitchen
The tots were allowed to be in
the kitchen when some respon-
sible person was there, where
they found pans and other kit
chen utensils in a drawer or low
cupboard which they played with
to their hearts content.
However, they learned early
not to reach for anything above
them as on the stove or tables,
nor to get into other drawers OF
cupboards. How did they learn
this? Through pain Immediately
and consistently applied to their
hand or bottom.
Scissors and Matches
We also proceeded in like man.
ner with scissors and matches,
even with empty match boxes
since the youngsters can't easily
discriminate between a filled and
empty box. On the very few oc-
casions when, in spite of vigil
lance, a tot seized a knife or the
scissors, we avoided shouting at
him or spanking him. That is the
time to get the dangerous thing
from him gently and calmly.
Otherwise, he might try to run
with it and with great danger.
The psychological moment to
spank his hands or bottom( and
be sure it really hurts them) is
the moment he is just about to
seize such forbidden thing. The
same principle applies when he
climbs dangerously. Don't shout
or spank him when you find him
high on the box or chairs seek
ing something in the cupboard
and the like. Be vigilant for days
thereafter so as to administer
the pain just as he is about to
make the perilous climb.
Running With Things in Mouth
Tots are inclined to run about
with a clothespin or some other
object in the mouth. Thereby
some tots have sustained serious,
even fatal injuries. Better not
allow a child under five or six
to use a lead pencil at all except
under supervision. Kindergarten
crayons are so much safer.
If you are vigilant and con-
sistent you can train the tot in
the general rule never TO move
about with such objects in his
mouth. A few instant spanks will
work, if consistent. Don't run al
ter a child to recover such an
arficla Taach him tn stoD when
you say so. Don't confuse this
with getting him to come to you.
Go calmly and get him. Use pain
only to inhibit the tot, not 10
win his cooperation.
The more safe things the tot
has to play with, and the more
good times with you and affec-
ton from you when he is good,
the easier, Of course, for him to
learn these basic safety habits.
