My First parenting Article


After Magathi was born , When I was exploring the ways to manage both kids and their sibling rivalry , I got lot of info from the super nanny serial . I wanted to share it with all parents like me and then wrote and sent this article below to the Tamil Magazine MangayarMalar .My first article got published too :) .Wanted to post the same as my first parenting blog also now.


























For those who cannot read Tamil, this article gives some techniques which could be applied to improve the kid's behaviour & studies . I have used few techniques like giving them a star tree and making them colour till the tree top for each good behaviour or achievement, stickers for good behaviour, printed certificates or printed dollar notes etc . This has helped a lot and have always yielded good results .One of our friend Sasi also has written a blog about this which explains similar techniques .

One key thing to remember is that the children get bored with any technique after some time . So atleast once in 2 months change the technique and try to reward them with things they like which will make it more fruitful .
