the individual learn so willingly
or feel so important when he
shares in obligations and ach-
Jwejutnts.
! realizing this can tre
mendously help their budding
pffsph'ng in developing initia
tive and a healthy self-concept.
Self-concept means how one
fefbout himself. A child
Who! parly obtains a healthy
feeling about himself is better
able to make later life adjust
iSe 4-to-6-year-old, having
ju*t established himself as an
individual in his own right,
seeks to discover how much he
can dt>. He observes and imi
tates adult activities and engag
es forlhours in imaginative play.
His*main problem is how to
experiment with things and ex
ercise his will as widely as possi
ble without suffering too many
failures or guilt feelings.
A helpful solution to his prob
lems hinges on parents offering
the child all possible freedom
and encouragement in carrying
out his projects and imposing
only necessary restrictions.
Use the words “no” and
“don’t;’ sparingly. Seldom say
“bad boy.” He might just be
lieve you and act the role.
For him freedom is plenty im
portant. Since many of the
child’s enterprises will be physi
cally impossible or socially un
acceptable, he may otherwise)
become so discouraged that he
will never develop ability to se
lect special goals and persevere
in reaching them.
Parents can further help Jun
ior through this difficult stage
of self-development by joining
him.in activities or giving him

Junior will never be more
’ willing to learn and share in
• achievements than at the ages
of 4, and 6. That’s one rea
■ son why many first grade teach
' ers enjoy their work so much.
■ First graders are in the age pe
riod when habits can be molded
' that will follow them for life.
Some activities which parents
and small children can engage
together are:
Cleaning yards, constructing
. model airplanes, making dolls,
shining shoes, reading stories,
answering and asking questions,
drawing pictures, planting gar
dens, tumbling and wrestling and
wood working.
Junior’s coordination is awk
ward at the 4-6 age. He’s slow
as a trurtle and working with
him takes plenty of mamma’s)
and papa’s time and patience,
especially after a hard day’s la-1
bor.
Placing Junior before TV to j
watch “Texas Pete Rides Again”!
might be easier. But the Big
Eye will never help the lad de-i
velop initiative of his own or aj
really healthy self-concept. What,
Junior sees on TV is what oth-j
ers do. Not what he does. He
needs action himself.
