During the first three years of life, infants and toddlers are learning who they are. The daily interactions that you have with them help them gain a sense of themselves and how to relate to others. When infants’ needs are met promptly, gently, and lovingly, they learn to trust. When toddlers’ behaviors are guided in positive and respectful ways, they learn self-discipline and acceptable ways of behavior and expression.
How you respond to young children helps them to create a picture of who they are, what they can do and what they think and feel. When you are respectful and show interest in their feelings, accomplishments, and discoveries, you are helping them develop positive self-images and self-esteem.
