Parents' words that encourage "dialogue" rather than being rigid

They say that a small difference in questions can lead the conversation in a different direction.

Don't think that the child answers in short responses every day, but rather,

Try changing the question~

It seems like we can have a rich and engaging conversation.

Parent's conversation method to encourage 'dialogue' with children
⠀
1️⃣ "Did you have fun today?" ➡ "Which part of the class was the most fun for you today?"
⠀
"Did you have fun today?" is a question that doesn't stimulate a child's thinking at all.🙅🏻‍♀️
⠀
Instead, asking "Which part of today's class did you find interesting?" prompts the child to think about "a moment," and the more deeply they think, the better the expression we can expect from them.🙆🏻‍♀️
⠀
When you think about it, there is always a moment, even if very brief, when the institution feels interested.
⠀
Chaechae Mom also always asks questions this way!😊

⠀
2️⃣ "Did you have a good lunch today?" ➡️ "Among the side dishes you ate today, which one was the most delicious?"
⠀
Did you have a good lunch today? That question encourages a short answer.🙅🏻‍♀️
⠀
So, the question "Which side dish you ate today was the most delicious?"
It is a question that forces you to answer with your own thoughts, and
You can hear your child's unique answer, not a obvious one!🙆🏻‍♀️
⠀
Learn how to happily communicate with your child😊
⠀
⠀
3️⃣ "I hope you didn't fight with your friend ➡️ "How should we resolve issues with a friend?""
⠀
The phrase "I hope you don't fight" can simply be a message telling a child to avoid fighting!🙅🏻‍♀️
⠀
On the other hand, 'What should I do to solve problems with my friends?'
The child thinks more deeply about the situation,
Helps to suggest ideas for conflict resolution.🙆🏻‍♀️
⠀
⠀
4️⃣ "What did the teacher say today?" ➡️ "Is there anything the teacher said today that you remember?"
⠀
The question "What did the teacher say today?" is too broad.
Simply saying "I don't know" can easily lead to the conversation breaking off.🙅🏻‍♀️
⠀
Infancy is a time to develop storytelling skills by connecting memorable experiences with language!
⠀
Questions that ask about "memorable words" can help evoke a specific moment and naturally lead to an explanation of the situation.🙆🏻‍♀️
⠀
⠀
5️⃣ "What did you learn today?" ➡️ "Is there something new you learned at kindergarten today?"
⠀
According to developmental psychology research, since infants tend to think based on concrete experiences, questions that include the clue "newly" have a positive effect on memory recall and language development.
⠀
"What did you learn today?" can be approached by having the child repeat the teacher's words rather than recalling from memory, while "Did you learn anything new today?" can encourage the child to actively share their own experiences!🙆🏻‍♀️
