家長(zhǎng)須知：25個(gè)6歲之前必須養(yǎng)成的好習(xí)慣

有時(shí)候，我們看到孩子在電梯里大聲尖叫，在和人講話時(shí)不停挖鼻子，或者在一個(gè)女士走過(guò)他面前時(shí)和小伙伴討論“她丑死了”……忙碌的爸爸媽媽們可能都來(lái)不及意識(shí)到這些行為是需要改進(jìn)的。

“25 Good Manners that a Child Should have by Age 9”， 這原來(lái)是美國(guó)Parent雜志中的一輯跨頁(yè)內(nèi)容，我第一次看到它是在孩子的學(xué)校。老師用硬卡紙把這些good manners（應(yīng)該說(shuō)是好習(xí)慣？或者說(shuō)是規(guī)矩？?jī)烧呓杂兄桑┵N在入校的墻壁上，每個(gè)孩子每天都會(huì)“走”過(guò)這些good manners。有一些做的不對(duì)的地方，老師就當(dāng)下指著墻壁上的“條款”柔聲細(xì)語(yǔ)但是卻很堅(jiān)定地教育孩子要做到了。如果你希望有一個(gè)懂禮貌，善意，討人喜歡的寶寶，就一起來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)一下這25個(gè)must-do manners。在i-Kids的觀點(diǎn)里，一個(gè)會(huì)說(shuō)“謝謝”、咳嗽知道捂住嘴、記得幫后面的人帶一下門的孩子，比會(huì)背多少唐詩(shī)會(huì)背多少單詞都要重要。
