Socialization is vital for the little ones at home
Through socialization, children learn beliefs, share, objects, behaviors, feelings and establishing culture and principles within a group that surrounds them.
Through socialization, children will feel accepted, valued, learn patterns of behavior, which ones to imitate and which ones not.
As a result of socialization, the infant will manage to develop its own identity and understand what behavior is acceptable to the human eye and what is not.
For example, a child can do his homework without shoes, because he feels confident, while in a classroom this child will understand that he must wear shoes because he is surrounded by other infants like him, he will learn the value of the uniform and the benefits of wear footwear.
Play through socialization in classrooms
When they return to class, the children will be able to share with other people like themselves, their age, with their tastes and put aside all those audiovisual artifacts that can hurt them so much.
In the classroom, through play, the child will be able to obtain significant learning that will promote advancement and cognitive development, such as conflict resolution.
In addition, the child needs to see example and behavior patterns surrounded by other similar ones, and this is achieved in the classrooms, in addition, learning is shared and knowledge is built in block, product of the ideas, experiences and actions of the children that surround.
School normalization is essential
Although there are many doubts and questions about returning to the classroom, as parents we must take into account that in all areas we have tried to continue with a normal life.
For example, we have not stopped doing the market, visiting relatives, celebrating birthdays, practicing sports.
So why not give us the opportunity for our children to have an approach to reality.
Many parents are still on the street at work, but they want to keep their children locked up, this is a serious mistake; the key must be to have good hygiene and biosafety standards and, above all, to strengthen the immune system.
Back-to-school biosecurity
We are going to share some back-to-school biosecurity tips.
Good use of the mask:
Try to buy the right one to go out and that when the child is in class he can use it.
There are additional options such as masks, you can also opt for gloves, but remember something, they are children and if you wrap it in many things it will be uncomfortable.
Keep an antibacterial gel in your backpack
An antibacterial roll on so you can wash your hands and stay clean always. You can also add wet towels, or a bath soap.
Hydration
Do not forget hydration, always have your water bottle in your bag, keeping it hydrated is key.
If you have been broke or a close relative, it is best not to attend classes, for the sake of other children and their families.
Strengthen the immune system in this back to school
You can have all the biosecurity standards, but if your immune system is not strengthened, then any virus will come to attack you, because what really protects us from viruses is a good strengthened immune system.
The first thing you should try is to have a healthy diet in the little one, try to include in their diet, vegetables with a high degree of vitamin A, B, C, iron and Zinc.
Add probiotics in food, in juices, waters, these will bring a balance to your intestinal flora, probiotics can be found in pharmacies or naturally in the same foods.
Change the sweet snacks for fruit snacks, promote fruits with a high value of vitamin C, in school snacks instead of including a cookie, make a change for a fruit.
Encourage some outdoor activity, such as going for a walk, jogging, to the park, playing sports, going to the beach, a locked-up child is much more prone to getting sick, as their immune system is weakened by being confined.
