My thoughts: Both of the Adventurous Bunny books are charming, fun reads that teach young bunny (and young human toddlers) that there are just some things they shouldn't do. The lessons are sweetly taught in the simple language and sweet illustrations.
As this Adventurous Bunny explores his world, he learns to do the right thing and his mother encourages him in the right way.
No, No, Bunny specifically focuses on wrongful acts that Bunny must learn to choose to not do such as taking things that do not belong to him.
Uh-oh, Bunny specifically focuses on Bunny's careless acts that result in his breaking or messing up things. Bunny learns to recognize how his compulsive acts cause problems.

I used how the boys treat each other. When the other treats them wrong or badly, the three of us talk about how it feels and why it is bad.

I try teaching them right from wrong how important it is to be respectful to everyone and love each other and most important to communicate...
ReplyDeleteWhen you’re in a situation where your child is disrespectful, that’s not the ideal time to do a lot of talking about limits or consequences. At a later time you can talk with your child about his behavior and what your expectations are.
ReplyDeleteit's constant work to teach children to be respectful.
ReplyDeleteLeading by example is a great way. We try to teach them to treat others as they would like to be treated. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWe teach the kids by setting a good example in the things we do ourselves. We also teach them to ask to use other people's things and not to just take. And that the things we have are a blessing and we need to take care of them because others are not so fortunate.
ReplyDeleteThis is a subject requiring lots of patience but empathy is so important and you'll get far in life by being kind and considerate. I struggle guiding my kids with this, I feel like every day we have another teaching opportunity in this area!
ReplyDeleteThese look really cute! Thanks so much for linking up at Booknificent Thursday on Mommynificent.com this week!

I think they learn by example. Parents should always be looking for any opportunity to teach kids to be responsible which will give them a sense of responsibility and pride and to also take care of others things. These opportunities also help build commpassion and empathy.

I tell him it's not his and give him something that is his.
ReplyDeleteI show my kids how to take care of my things and that itself serves as a model.
