Lying is common in toddlers so don’t fret if you heard your tots lying about the soap, the mess, or the cake. More often than not, children below the age of three are oblivious to the fact that they are already lying.  Since they are still starting to express themselves or build words and sentences, their response would actually depend on the grownup’s body language and tone when talking to them.

Toddlers lie not because they do not want to get in trouble. Believe or not, here are the main reasons why they lie to you.

1. They think that lying is funny and they would get funny reactions from you when they lie
2. They simply want to play with you
3. They are jealous especially if they have younger sibling who gets the most attention

But then again, lying can sometimes be a form of anxiety or a sign of child depression.

Have you caught your toddler lying?

When parents start to teach kids the Art of Flossing, most of them starts to feel grossed and the initial reaction would be “Eew!” This is very common since kids who haven’t experienced flossing their teeth think that it could be messy, difficult, and even painful.

But thanks to the product called FireFly® Kids’ Flossers by Dr. Fresh®, kids may now get to enjoy flossing and maintain a healthy teeth at the same time. These are small items that can be used for single flossing. Kids no longer have to grapple the slippery floss just like the adults do but instead, they would just have to hold the firefly-shaped floss holder to floss their teeth in a saw-like motion. This makes the FireFly® Kids’ Flossers by Dr. Fresh® very easy to use!

Adults have hygiene kits then kids too should have one. At an early start, you must teach your toddlers the importance of being clean. It has numerous benefits for their health and relationship with others.

This kit must have the cleaning and bathroom essentials your child needs. This includes a small soap, a comb, a washcloth, hand towel, toothbrush, toothpaste, a nail cutter, and sometimes a band aid. Make sure that the hygiene kit is packed all together in a small bag so they can easily get everything by the time that they need to be cleaned. At the same time, a small and handy hygiene kit allows your kids to stay clean and germ-free even if they are at school or in camp.
