Conflict resolution is an essential skill in child development. At Podar Prep, we teach children how to navigate disagreements positively and constructively. Here’s a guide for parents to help their children with conflict resolution, based on our “Five Fingers of Change” approach:
<
C- Calm Approach to Conflicts
   – Teach your child to calmly approach conflicts. We emphasise stopping any hurtful behaviour immediately. This step is vital in early childhood education, as it sets the stage for a positive resolution process. It’s part of holistic learning, where children understand the importance of maintaining peace.
<
H- Helping Children Acknowledge Feelings
   – Recognising and validating feelings is crucial. Encourage your child to express what they are feeling. Understanding toddler behaviour involves acknowledging these emotions, which is a fundamental aspect of child-centric education and positive parenting.
<
A- Asking Open-Ended Questions
   – To understand the situation better, ask your child open-ended questions. This approach, encouraged in Podar Prep’s curriculum for kids, helps gather unbiased information and teaches children to think critically about the issue at hand.
<
N- Naming the Golden Value Involved
   – Identify the core values related to the conflict, such as sharing or honesty. This step is an integral part of teaching children about moral values and is a key component of our child development and parenting advice.
<
G- Gather ideas to find a solution and provide follow-up Support
   – Encourage your child to brainstorm solutions and choose one together. This collaborative approach to problem-solving is a cornerstone of Podar Prep’s toddler education.

E -End the conversation but be prepared for follow-up support
Ending the conversation on a positive note but being prepared for follow-up support is essential for comprehensive conflict resolution.

By following these tips, parents can reinforce the conflict resolution teachings that children receive, ensuring a consistent and effective approach to handling disagreements.
