Enter the rule:the baby puts away toys himself. Explain that this is his job - almost like mom and dad. As he grows up, add responsibilities: make the bed, wash the dishes, clean the room.

Trying to spur on others' successes, you cause a backlash: the kid will feel like a loser and can lose ground under his feet for life. And do not create a feeling of imminent failure for the son or daughter. Suppose a child participates in a concert. It is a mistake to speak before going on stage, that he was not well prepared. After such words, preschool children will certainly fail the speech.
