Acknowledge their efforts
6–12 maandenFamily ConnectionGeen materialen nodig
When your child tries to do something, notice and acknowledge the effort, regardless of the outcome. If they're working to grasp a toy, you might say, "You're reaching for that." If they're attempting to roll over, you might say, "You're working hard." This recognition shows respect for their efforts and builds trust that you see and value their attempts.

Hoe doe je deze activiteit
When your child tries to do something, notice and acknowledge the effort, regardless of the outcome. If they're working to grasp a toy, you might say, "You're reaching for that." If they're attempting to roll over, you might say, "You're working hard." This recognition shows respect for their efforts and builds trust that you see and value their attempts.
Waarom het werkt
Acknowledging your child's efforts demonstrates respect for their developing capabilities and builds their trust that you see them clearly. This consistent recognition creates a foundation of mutual respect. Adults who report high levels of mutual respect and trust with parents experience greater emotional closeness and lower conflict rates, with patterns established early in childhood (Laursen & Collins, 2009).
Tips voor ouders
Focus on what they're doing, not on success or failure. The goal is to show you're paying attention and you respect their efforts.
Keep your tone warm but calm. You're acknowledging, not cheering. A simple, genuine observation builds connection without pressure.
