幫助家裡的幼兒學習如何穿外套

秋天到了，我們將孩子們的外套還有夾克都給翻了出來
去 年，我拜訪蒙特梭利學校時，我看到老師帶領孩子們穿外套，乍看之下，我覺得她們的方法有點蠢，實在是因為我自己的無知，今年，我才了解到，那種方法，真是 有智慧，發明這種方法的人，一定對於孩子的發展以及能力有深刻的了解。如果要讓幼兒跟成人一樣一次放一只手進去來穿外套，幾乎不太可行，因為她們的手比較 短，但是，我現在介紹的這個方法，讓我的孩子們不需要成人的協助，試個幾次就能自己來。看以下的視頻：
幾個關鍵：
■ 要能夠讓幼兒這樣做，要有一個平台讓孩子放置她的外套
■ 外套的內裡要朝上擺放，外套的領子要朝身體擺放，引導小孩時，就高告訴她要將標籤往自己的肚子靠。
■ 教孩子將兩只手都伸進去袖子裡。
■ 幫著孩子雙臂往上往後伸。
■ 真的能成功的，並且小孩之後都能夠學會自己穿。
Knox is now 14 months old. Is it too early to have him start trying to do this? He has always put his arms through for me when I dress him, and raised his arms obligingly when I undress him.
Grace, You should observe him to see if he’s ready. I think at 14 months, you can start with teaching him to put on pants, pull-ups (if he’s in paper diapers) or underwear, even socks. On second thought, if you are collaborating with him, I don’t see why you wouldn’t show him how to do this too! Let me know how it works out with him!
This is how I learned how to put my jacket on in day care when I was little…honestly don’t remember how old I was just remember doing it…my boys learned the same way (minus the youngest, because I didn’t teach them, their preschool did, need to work with the 22 month old) at a preschool that is run by the same org (military child development centers, which as I read more on Montessori, I think have a lot of Montessori to them, though the kid ages are not as wide spread and meals are structured, but the kids serve themselves from a young age…)
My son can do this at 20 mo old already, I showed him once then I caught him practicing on his own. Now he does it, but sometimes upside down. He takes a while, but then exclaims, “I did it!” When it’s on. He’ll be 21 mo soon.
I am hoping to get some solid advice. My 3 year old attends a small Montessori school in a class of 6 children.
I need to know if I’m just new to how they are expected to learn.
His lunch is required to be in a single lid container that they can open and close themselves. They aren’t allowed to wear shoes that tie. He is often very dirty when I pick him up, sometimes without his coat. They have a red time out chair. Does all of this seem normal for a 3 year old. I’m worried I am just new to all of this.
