- Active Listening: Use your active listening skills when talking to your child. Give him your full attention, make eye contact, and try to understand what he's saying. Show empathy and try to understand his feelings.
- Ask Open-Ended Questions: Ask only open-ended questions that do not require a yes or no answer, which will encourage your child to explain further. For example, "What did you do at school today?" or "What's your favorite game?" Questions like these allow your child to express their thoughts and feelings.
- Communication Through Games and Activities: Children generally communicate more easily through games and activities. Spend more time with your child playing games or working together on a project. Meanwhile, chat with him and encourage him to share his feelings, thoughts, and experiences.
- Create a Warm and Supportive Environment: Provide a warm and supportive environment for open and friendly communication with your child. When talking to him, give positive feedback rather than criticism and encourage him. They will express what they want to talk about more comfortably in a safe environment.
- Allow her to Express her Emotions: Allow your child to express and share their feelings. Try to understand his emotional experiences and provide emotional support. It's important to acknowledge his feelings and teach him how to cope.
- Make Time for a Routine: Spend time with your child regularly and give him special attention. Spending this time only with you and with him will help strengthen the bond between you and deepen your communication.
- Be Patient: Sometimes it may take time for your child to express his thoughts and feelings. Be patient and give it time. Allow your child to talk and communicate at their own pace without pressure.
Remember, every child is different and their communication styles may also differ. Try to communicate by taking into account the personality traits and needs of your child.
