Scenario: Dylan - 18 Months Old and Biting
Posted: Fri Aug 26, 2016 11:55 am
Hey guys
I have a question I am struggling with and was wondering if anyone had any more suggestions- the question is
" 18-month old Dylan has been biting his friends at the centre when he gets frustrated. what strategies would you use to support Dylan to understand and accept responsibility for their own actions, appropriate to their level of understanding?
the answers I have are:-
* specify what is frustrating Dylan
* Redirect Dylan to another activity or redirect another child if problem is steming from two children disagreeing
* place Dylan in a bigger room with more stimulation
* positive reinforcement
* "Dylan, its not nice to bite our friends"
I'm finding this difficult due to Dylan being 18 months old and his understanding level
Thanks for your help x
