Early ages of kids work as a clay mould, and you can mould their behavior any way you desire. So it’s the duty of parents to teach them good lessons at a younger age, so that they own good characters as they grow up. It’s very easy to teach them at a younger age, and as time passes by, some habits are not easy to change. Take care of these simple parenting tips.

1. Since kids start recognizing things, you can read stories to them. Draw a creative world of pictures in your kid’s mind through your words. Stories provide the easiest path to creative world and good thoughts, and it’s a parent’s duty to take them there. When you read them stories with good message, they learn virtue and good principles of life.

2. Reading can provide knowledge, creativity, and lessons of concentration and patience. During younger ages, read them stories. When they turn old enough to read, gift them good story books with nice pictures. It gives kids an interest to go through the pages and read to know the stories behind those pictures.

3. Ask your kids you share the stories they read with their friends. It helps them to memorize and recollect stories and events better.

4. Kids learn syllabus and lessons at school. But they learn lessons of love from home. Kids closely watch how their family members, particularly parents behave to other members and in society. Kids learn the basic lessons of love, bonding and sacrifices from family.

5. Learning school lessons is good. But they should also learn what’s happening around. You can provide them magazines and books, to give a basic knowledge of general things. Help them to choose books, as per their age. Allow them to read newspapers and watch news channels too. Such habits make them aware that general news is not reserved for adults only.

6. Teach at a younger age, the happiness achieved through sharing and also encourage them to help others. By doing so, you teach your kid one of the basic lessons of behavior. Try to remove selfish thoughts like ‘I’, ‘Mine’ etc from your child’s mind. Teach them to share food and toys with friends.

7. Ask them to say ‘Thank You’ for whatever helps they receive. Also ask them never to say sorry if they hurt someone or did something bad.

8. Teach kids lessons of courage, and ask them to confess if they commit any mistake. Teach them that accepting a mistake is the first step to correct them.
