Examples of Body Language to Make Communicating With Children Easy By Suzie McDermott At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

When discussing the concept of communicating with children, examples of body language are often overlooked. However, the use of body language examples can highlight some of the most simple and easiest ways to communicate with children and even teenagers.

Communicating with our children and teenagers involves more then just the words we use. In fact, did you know that our body language and the tonality of our voices account for ninety-three percent of everything we say?

So it makes sense to use both examples of body language and the tone of our voices to help us communicate more effectively with our children.

By using our body language in communicating with our children we can help to encourage their excitement and enthusiasm for life.

Our own childhoods and those of our children are filled with memories, these memories maybe happy ones, sad ones or a mixture of both. Normally our memories are filled with people and places that we experienced as children.

However what most of us do not realize is that our memories are also made up of many emotions. In fact the greater the emotions we feel with any experience the more likely we are to remember that experience later on in life.

So our aim is to give our children plenty of strong positive emotional experiences for them to cherish well into adulthood.

As parents we can make our kids experiences more exciting by the way we interact with them during these experiences. By increasing the excitement our children feel, we are automatically increasing the emotions. This in turn helps to imprint these happy exciting experiences into our children’s long-term memories.

Our children are incredibly emotional, most of the times they wear their hearts on their sleeves. When it comes to displaying emotions they are often fearless and unencumbered.

It is one of the attributes of children that we as adults often wish we could regain. It is these attributes that we as parents can use to help us communicate with our children

So how do we communicate with our children to heighten their positive emotional experiences?

The answer is simple; we mirror or mimic the way our kids are showing their excitement or happiness at the experience.

Laugh with them, run with them, move about the same way they are and use the tone of your voice to project your own excitement and happiness.

In other words get involved, feel what you kids are feeling and just let go of all of your adult limitations. Be free again. If you do this I can guarantee once you get past the feeling just a bit silly stage, you will have just as much fun as your kids are having.

Sharing the experience with your kids will make it more amazing and magical for your kids. They will feel like you are apart of their magical world.

Not only will you create fantastic memories for both of you, sharing and getting involved in your kids’ experiences is a great way to strengthen the parent child bond with them.

This technique works wonders not for just children but for everyone. However if you have older children, just remember the older our children get the more conservative they tend to be in showing their excitement.

So take your cues from them and show the same level of emotions as they do. And of course enjoy and have fun developing and learning the skills involved in using these basic examples of body language in communicating with your children.
