CONVERSATION VS TALKING TO YOUNG CHILDREN
4 Intrinsic Differences Between A Conversation And Talking To Young Children
“Conversing with young children requires mutual engagement and active listening
by both parties involved.”
CONVERSATIONS need to be at the child's developmental stage.
TALKING is the physical ability to say words, phrases and construct sentences. Conversing requires the ability to talk with the cognitive ability and nuances of exchanging ideas.
CONVERSATION is a state where two people exchange ideas, feelings and thoughts. It is the rise, ebb and flow between individuals. It is an inclusive feeling for everyone involved.
When we converse
with young children we enter their world. We gain their attention and
trust. We experience their wonder,
enthrallment and excitement of their world.
They, in turn, pay attention to us and learn what we value, believe and
appreciate.
