Carnival costumes
My 4 years old daughter doesn't want to wear her carnival costume, what should i do?
This time of the year commonly carnival dances take place and everyone dresses with their carnival costumes . Many children enjoy cascading , but we should never forget that some of them aren't happy with this. What you should do?
Get ready, explain what is carnival all about. Ready a fairytale, see pictures or videos . Talk about her will to cascade
2. active participation to her choise: Talk with her for what she likes you can even suggest or show her some costumes from broshures, pay a visit to a retail shop or you can even try to make one of our own
3. Respect her choise: Allow her to disguise the way she feels comfortable or wear thye costume she desires. In no way do not force her to cascade woth something you only like. What it matters is for her to feel comfortable so do not negotiate the costume or the way she wants to cascade
4. freedom of choise: Is she doesn't want to wear a ostume do not force her. She has the right to make her choose . Remember that what counts is for her to feel happy and not forced
Only because is carnival time doesn't mean your daughter she has to be miserable if she doesn;t want to disguise like a prinsess, balarin, cat and so on. Growing up she'll have many chances to decide if carnival is a fest that suits her
