Bullying as Early as Preschool
Preschool bullying may not be a term that you are familiar with. However, preschoolers and kindergartners
exhibit signs of bullying all the time; kicking, hitting, pushing, difficulty sharing. These are all typical
behaviors of young children, however they are also behaviors that should be immediately corrected so they
are not used in the future.
Bullying is all about Territory
Young children exhibit these types of behaviors because they're extremely territorial. Additionally, they
haven't been socialized so they feel this type of behavior is appropriate and their only option to showcase
dislike towards something. When your child was a baby, he/she used crying to get attention, now as a young
child they might feel bullying behavior gives them what they want.
To prevent your child from bullying others, follow these steps:




Intervene immediately. As soon as you notice your child has resorted to violent behavior, step in.
Take your child out of the situation and provide supportive, yet stern words of advice. For
example, "I know you're upset right now, but we do not kick to get our way."
Teach coping methods. Teach your child that hitting or pushing another child to get what they
want is not acceptable. Instead they should use their words to ask politely or to use the certain
toy next. Resorting to violence should be outlawed as a method to getting what they want.
Take responsibility. When your child hits or kicks another child, make them get ice, band-aids,
etc. and apologize for their actions. Show them not only how to say sorry, but how to show
they're sorry.
Consequences. If these methods don't seem to make any changes in your child's behavior you can
consider taking away certain toys, playtime, television time, etc. Your child can then earn these
privileges back through good behavior.
So remember as parent’s, teaching your child how to effectively deal with their frustrations can be a long
and drawn-out process. Remember to stay patient and have a positive attitude. This type of behavior is all
part of a preschooler's learning process and is a natural part of their social development. However, if
consequences and time-outs have no effect on your child's behavior after several months, you may want to
seek the help of a doctor.

Poesía
El pato Renato
Al pato Renato
le gusta cantar
cada día un rato
se pone a ensayar.
Adivinanza
Vive en jaulita dorada,
Come lechuga y alpiste
Nos alegra con su canto
Y de amarillo se viste.
El canario
Dice don Jilguero:
Trabalenguas
¡ No le da la voz!
El hipopótamo Hipo,
está con hipo y su
Hipopotamito con hipito.
¿Quién les quitara el hipo
A los hipopótamos Hipo?
Este caballero siempre tiene tos
Do re mi fa cua,cua, cua
Repite el pato Renato.
