Redirection and ignoring bad behavior
redirection1Redirection
commonly used with infants, toddlers and pre-schoolers
Redirection is very effective with younger children and easy to use. Redirect attention means to divert the child’s attention to something else and distract him by this, so he forgets what he was upset about initially. Here is an example of redirecting the attention of an infant or toddler: You are having lunch with your one year old host child who sits in a highchair next to you. He repeatedly tries to grab your fork on the table, but you don’t want him to have your fork because it is too dangerous for a one year old. To redirect attention you can remove the object and substitute with something else, for example a children’s fork, a toy or a book. It might not always work, but it’s always worth a try.
A good tip is to use your sense of humor to redirect attention. That often works best.
