Bottle feeding a baby is a time-consuming and stressful task. You must monitor your milk production, your baby's feeding schedule, and other factors. Once you start weaning your toddler from the bottle, it can be equally as stressful—but for very different reasons! Some mothers feel bad about denying their toddlers something they adore so much, while others worry that if a bottle isn't around at all times, their children won't get enough food or liquids. What if, then, I could prove to you that things don't have to be this way? That there are actually ways to help you through the process? Be consistent While consistency is important for all aspects of parenting, it's especially important when weaning a toddler from bottle feeding.

Kids Never Run-Out Of Questions

By -


Kids, especially toddlers are full of queries.  The stage of getting to know and curious about the things around them.  This is the phase where the foundation of knowledge and wisdom begins.

The most frequent questions they ask always starts with “Why” in Filipino “Eh Bakit?”  We, mothers are their first teacher so as much as possible we try to answer them truthfully and straight in a way that their little innocent minds will comprehend.

Never show them that you are annoyed of their unending questions.  If you are too tired to think for a good or best answer to his/her question, explain why you cannot answer him/her for the meantime. You may tell your child that would be your assignment and you will discuss it with him or her again later, while you divert his/her attention to play or do some writing.

My youngest son is already 11 years old, but still he never run out of questions.  It’s a good thing Mr. Google is always to the rescue ahaha. I can no longer answer his questions right away, I need to do some researching before I could come up with a correct answer to his querries about the greek and roman mythology. I bought him books to read on, yet still questions arise lol.

I am sharing with you some fun facts to share with your toddlers. I find these lines very educational for a small child.
  • You cannot stand on a cloud – you’d fall right through it.
  • If a dog has a wet nose, that’s a sign he’s healthy.
  • The buzzing sound a bee makes, comes from its flapping wings.
  • If a starfish loses a leg, it grows back.
  • The moon is round like a ball and its light came from the sun.
  • If you mix all your colors of paint together, you’d get dark brown.
  • With seahorses, the daddies get pregnant and have babies, not the mommies.
