Did u know that each of us including our children since born has their own unique and strong sense? Have u ever experienced for example, ur son has made a mess around the house, and u have tried to ask him to clean up the mess, but it is just like he ignored ur instruction, or has tantrums that are physical-stamps his feet, runs away, lies on the floor flailing his arms & legs, cries when they cant see their caregiver, fussy about any changes in the taste of food, including changes in the taste of breast milk because of foods the mother eats or the taste of a new brand of formula? How do u as their caregiver, react to this kind of behavior?
Why it is important to know ur Child Sense?
According to Priscilla J Dunstan, everyone of us comes into the world with one sensory mode that is dominant, and that mode will continue to be dominant for the rest of our life, if we start out as visual, we remain visual, even if we evntually develop strength or aptitude in our other senses. Basically, there 4 types dominant sense that we all have earned:- The Tactile Child - they learned & explore the world through play or physical senses, likes making mess, walk faster, loved sports
- The Auditory Child- they always cried, very alert to even silent noise, talkative, learned faster through music or video's that have songs
- The Visual Child- play by organising things, loved pretty things, high memory of places, prefer tidiness, loved arts,creative
- The Taste-Smell Child-prefer quiet, calm environment,loves to dress up & role play, really2 fussy abouth food & drink
So now, lets say, u fall under "Vsiual Mommy" & ur child fall under "Tactile" senses, how do u cope with this differences? (u loved tidiness dont like mess, but ur child, loved to make a mess all over the house-how do u cope with this matter?)
