Acknowledge both sides simply
1–2 JahreFamily ConnectionKeine Materialien erforderlich
During conflicts between siblings or playmates, briefly acknowledge what each child wants using very simple language. Say 'You want the ball. She wants the ball.' This validates both perspectives. Then offer a simple solution like taking turns. This models fairness and helps children begin to see that both people matter in a conflict.

So geht diese Aktivität
During conflicts between siblings or playmates, briefly acknowledge what each child wants using very simple language. Say 'You want the ball. She wants the ball.' This validates both perspectives. Then offer a simple solution like taking turns. This models fairness and helps children begin to see that both people matter in a conflict.
Warum es funktioniert
At 12-24 months, children have an egocentric perspective and struggle to see others' viewpoints. By verbally acknowledging both sides, you're beginning to introduce the concept that conflicts involve multiple people with different wants. This is foundational to later understanding compromise and empathy. Children who learn to consider others' perspectives during conflicts show 40% better social competence and leadership abilities, and these skills transfer to peer relationships and academic collaboration (Johnson & Johnson, 1996). Though full perspective-taking is beyond this age, you're modeling the language and approach they'll grow into.
Tipps für Eltern
Keep it very short and simple. Just name what each child wants without long explanations.
Stay neutral and calm. Your job is to help both children feel heard, not to take sides.
