Positive parenting is not only about giving food or education to your child. It is much beyond the basic needs of a child.

  1. Touch

It is believed that touching your baby at every chance you get builds a stronger bond. The baby knows that you are always present. Skin to skin touch is must for a newborn and it is also helpful in case of an adopted child. Moms who nurse do this automatically. Even if you or your partner are bottle-feeding the baby, pull up the shirt and let your baby lie across your chest or belly. Let the warmth and feel of your heartbeat flow into.

Do not leave this habit as your baby grows. They always need your touch as a part of positive parenting.

  1. Imitate

You can act like a mirror to them by imitating. Kids love this and feel as if you are of the same age group. You are a team who loves to do what your kids do. Make funny moments and capture them.

  1. Eat together

When your baby can hold his spoon, let him try to feed you as well. He will definitely enjoy this fun activity. Although it will be messy but trust me feeding each other builds a great bond too. Feeding each other is a part of positive parenting even when your children grow out of your laps.

  1. Haircare

As you do hair care of your kids, let them do the same for you such as oiling or combing. Let them give you a new hair-do no matter how funny it looks, tell them you feel fancy and pose for a picture together! Make funny family videos.

  1. Gentle Massage

Before he goes to sleep, give him a gentle massage even for five minutes. Kids feel calm and sleep better. During the daytime, if kids feel to rub your hands, let them do. Positive parenting also refers to flow the positive energy from your body into your kid’s body.
