1. Run and jump without thinking

Compared with the age of 1-2 years, the mother will see that the baby has grown and healthy, the steps are also more confident. Many of your baby's basic movements have become essential. This means that a 35-month-old preschooler no longer needs intense mental focus to walk, stand, run or jump. Some other actions, like tiptoeing or balancing on one leg, may still require focus and effort.Most 3-year-olds like to run around freely and play simple chase, but they are not ready to participate in organized sports competition yet.

2. Attention for longer time
The amount of time a child in kindergarten can focus on one activity has increased dramatically. Along with acquiring more complex social skills, your child can now play complex games with other people, like chase or children's cards.And while engrossed in engaging games, children in kindergarten are less focused and easily distracted by their mother's requests.

A 35-month-old preschooler may need only a small nap in the afternoon, or no nap at all in some cultures. However, try to schedule a quiet, relaxing time in the afternoon.

4. Exploring the body
Kindergartners becoming interested in the insides of other people's clothes is a normal part of growing up. Try not to react with shock or horror if you see your child pretending to be a doctor and examining another child's genitals, or both of them running around the room undressed. You just need to let your child know that the genitals are a private area of each person and should be kept private, not for anyone to see. Then, direct both children to another activity, such as asking “Did anyone eat cake?”.Such treatment can help the baby feel relieved after playing a taboo game. Furthermore, if you deal with the problem now without avoiding it, your child will develop a healthy attitude about sex as he grows older.
5. Signs of backward development
Children entering kindergarten face a big change in their living environment and separation from their parents, so they may develop backward. This situation manifests in the child's refusal to continue with previously mastered skills such as suddenly wetting the bed after learning to sit on the potty, demanding to be fed even though he knows how to use a fork and spoon, or talking about corn. stupid, hard to understand.Parents get frustrated easily and react negatively when their 3-year-old suddenly behaves like a younger baby. But this could be a sign that your child is uncomfortable and needs more attention. Acting like a rebellious baby is because he wants to go back to the safe times of the past, when he could be with you and play freely in the house all day.
For this case, don't ask your child to act like an adult girl/boy, avoid putting extra pressure on your child. On the contrary, you should reward or praise when playing with your child, paying attention a little longer, being close, hugging and stroking your child often. At the same time, you should reduce expectations, help when your child cleans up or gets dressed until the child is ready to regain self-control and independence.
The 36-month-old preschooler's regressive developmental period will pass on its own as the baby gets used to school and gets proper attention. Exceptions, this may be a warning sign of physical weakness, weak muscle movement, early symptoms of autism or some common diseases in children that need to consult a doctor. doctor.
