Parents often ask this question, desperate to convey to the child's consciousness that being patient is putting off momentary pleasure, the desire for the sake of certain goals.

Patience training in preschool-age children requires great endurance and patience from the parents themselves, knowledge and the age of the children, the ability to apply special techniques in homeschooling.
When and how to teach your child patience
Young children learn patience with difficulty, which becomes a problem for parents. To make the relationship with the child warm and friendly, adults have a serious job to do: develop a sense of patience.

Children from the age of two, the part of the brain responsible for the intellect and emotions of a person develops. It is during this period that adults will have to correctly develop the skill, relying on such mental development.
Older children eventually begin to control their desires, which makes parenting easier, as the learning process becomes manageable.
It is necessary to start developing the skill of patience as soon as possible, practicing learning in the form of a game.

Teaching the child to wait
- Teach the baby to wait, while parents are busy with household chores, offer to feed the doll;
- When talking on the phone, advise your child to talk to her grandmother on a toy device;
- While you walk with the mom to the store, while you pay for the purchases in the store, entrust the child to hold her bag.
The objective is this: not to respond to the child's request to do something instantly, but to make it clear that there are more important things in which the child can also participate.
Techniques to develop the skill of patience.

1. Distract your child
- Do not respond rudely to the baby's requests.
- It is not recommended to punish for lack of respect and impatience towards you; the little one cannot understand this. It is better to pat him on the head and calmly ask him to wait a bit.
- When the child categorically refuses, achieve the result in a different way, in the form of a game: check if the bunny has put a toy under the sofa, the table. The child will be interested, the father will achieve the first results in learning.
2. Encourage and praise
If you are informed that you are going out with the baby, it is not recommended that you be distracted by strange matters. When the situation cannot wait, calmly explain the need to wait and promise that you will soon go to the place he likes. You can give away a watch to show when the wait time is up. To be patient, encourage what the child loves, say words worthy of praise.
3. Make a wish list
Learning patience: Two-year-olds start asking to buy toys. Sometimes the fulfillment of such wishes can be expensive, for example, a child quickly demands an expensive helicopter, a typewriter or a designer. In such situations, one should not refuse, but inform that this gift can be received for the New Year or birthday. To do this, you'll need to make a wish list and "send" it to Santa Claus. Therefore, stress is relieved, the baby patiently awaits the vacation.
4. Become an example
Children adopt their parents' habits. Look at yourself carefully and set a good example before teaching patience. The first thing you should pay attention to is your behavior. If you are impatient and display this behavior, you should not expect good results in skill development. And when you are patient enough, you can achieve the same for a child through creativity. In the work process, you feel independent, an adult: it is these sensations that will become an excellent assistant to learn to wait to achieve certain goals.
5. Explain clearly and intelligibly
We turn waiting into a game when communicating with children, try not to use the word "hour" or "minute", children still don't understand this as they are not time oriented. Wait 10-20 minutes: It is very clear for an adult, but not for a child. You can turn waiting on time into a game. Say, "We go to the park when they pick up the toys." Or: "When the time comes, the clock will strike the tower."
Maintain calm and balance in communication. Do not raise your tone, otherwise you will provoke aggressive behavior that will only result in a negative result and in this way you are teaching the children patience.
