Preschooler's Growth and Development (5 Years, 8-Month-Old)


The social behaviour of your preschooler depends on her interaction with others and growing up together with the siblings. Here are some ways to improve social skills of your 5 years, 8-month-old preschooler
The basics of her social behaviour shall stem from the emotional system of her brain. This should be considered highly essential for development of morality and empathy from this tender age and all through the life. Babies are known to cry when they hear others crying, as she can sense the discomfort of sadness of another one. It can thus be said that some of the precursors of social behaviour was always there in our brains. How your child behaves or reacts shall depend on her influences and experiences with others.

Gaining Self Control

Your kid is gaining her self control all through the pre-school days. Those with better self control are said to be more empathetic towards others. These children are known to develop better self conscience as well. Again your child shall develop a more sophisticated mind theory, if she is skilled in automatic behavioural responses. You can say she is using her intelligence, when she shows sympathy towards others or has the ability to imagine.

Desire to Please

Your child shall exhibit the desire to please you many times a day. When she was around 2 years, she began to show individual differences when she was guilty of doing something wrong. This was associated with her ability to abide by rules.
Her conscience development is also related to her individual nature. Children with strong moral abilities show better self control. Those who are fearful shall have a strong feeling of guilt at play. This is what leads to problems like anxiety disorders. To help her develop conscience, you need to adopt an affectionate, sensitive and warm attitude. For children, who are not very fearful, developing attachment with parents shall predict later conscience best.

Emotional Coaching

Emotional coaching is one of the best ways to help her develop self control. Help her label her emotions and ensure she is aware of the consequences of her actions. You can assist her in finding different solutions to an approach. Schools these days are coming up with plenty of developmental programs that help children develop their emotional and social skills. These programs are also known to improve their academic performances as well.

Talking to Her

You must always talk to her to keep her motivated. Growing up together with the siblings shall also have a huge impact on the way she develops. As she grows further, you can expect her to develop more understanding towards others. She shall develop her capabilities faster with exposure to different experiences.
If you think she loves music, you can send her for the classes too. Studies have shown children attending musical training develop better intelligence. Even drama lessons are said to improve the intelligence quotient. She actually inhabits the traits of another person while playing a role and her brain functions in a different way in this case.
Studies so far have established a clear co-relation between social skills and self control. You can always come up with innovative ways to improve social skills of your little one from this tender age. While your child shall grow up to a happy and successful adult, others shall appreciate her conscience and empathy.
There are many more development and growths that your little one is yet to attain. For any assistance at any point of development or concerns, you can always get back to your doctor. Remember to look after yourself well as well, since your 5.8 years shall keep you relatively busy these days.
