Childhood

We are all clear that young children should be properly seated in their chairs when traveling by car (and preferably backwards until four years of age). But how long should they use a child restraint system (SRI)? Unfortunately, many parents believe that when their children turn six, eight or ten years old they are "old enough" to be able to travel only with the seat belt of the vehicle, without being aware of the important risks they would have in case of collision or sudden braking.

We have lost something as healthy for childhood as going out to play in the street. The guilt that this custom has been extinguished is fairly distributed: partly due to insecurity, but also a little because of parental overprotection; partly because we fill our children's agenda with activities and there is hardly any free time; partly because technology monopolizes game time, something that did not exist thirty years ago; and also in large part that cities and towns are not intended for children.

We live in an era where children receive so many stimuli from so many sides and with so many studies about their development, that in some way we have become accustomed to being always busy and their minds are always working on something.

But his mother, a widow and with very few financial resources, has not been able to buy the album from the World Cup that all his friends collect.

The baby stage in the lives of our children is so short, that many times we keep some (or too many) things that remind us of those days when they were little and wanted to be in our arms all the time. Starting with baby clothes can be something emotionally difficult for some mothers, and while I was reading some Facebook posts, I came across a great idea for a mother to keep her children's baby clothes: create some memory kits, to deliver them when they are older.

There is a time when every child begins to be interested in dinosaurs. Such is the point of interest that they could end up reciting about twenty species, their type of food and even their habitat. When that interest becomes an obsession, scientists call it "intense interests." They do not know exactly what triggers it but it does produce benefits in cognitive development.
