Children in the age bracket of 4-12 years are knowledge magnets! Educate them to have a personal skin and hair care routine and see the change for yourself.
Remember the time when your baby was an infant and bathing was such an overwhelming activity. All those thoughts in the mind of hoping that you are doing it right, holding the baby right, using the right personal care products and so on. As the years progress, and our little bundles of joy become young humans, they are able to manage their personal care routine on their own. What we need to ensure is that we provide them with natural kids products which are chemical free.
Empower them to Make the Right Choices
Children in the age bracket of 4-12 years are knowledge magnets! They can actually digest more information than you think. Educating them about the importance of personal care, the need for chemical free products and about their skin science are great ways to involve them in the decision making journey.
And it should be done in a simple language. For example, rather than using the word ‘parabens’ for 4 year olds, you could simply say, “Let’s find a product for you which has come from plants.” Make it simple and relatable and then
Do it Together
Let them touch and feel the chemical free products that are a part of your personal care routine. Set a time in the day where you and your child will do the routine together. A simple way could be that they apply the night cream for you when it is time to wind up the day.
Delink Looks with Self Confidence
A lot of time, many parents make the mistake of linking looks with personal care products. What you need to emphasize is that the health of skin and hair is more important, and if the health is good, then looks will follow. You could link use of chemical free products with the health of the skin and create a common action or activity that lends to self confidence of your kids. It could be as simple as blowing a flying kiss to yourself or telling yourself that you are beautiful inside out.
Create Excitement for the Next one
Natural kids products are difficult to find in the market, and to find one that completely suits the requirements of your child is great. When you induct your child in the habit of personal care routine, tell them to start with a shampoo first, and create the excitement for a skin care cream next; until they understand the usage and benefit of both.
Praise and Motivate Regularly
Our kids love praise, don’t they!! And who doesn’t. A job well done always deserves acknowledgement. So, go crazy with praise when your children are forming the habit of a personal care routine.
Taking care of your 4-12 year old’s personal care is now easy with our Simply Kids range of products which is now available on Amazon. Safe, dermatologically tested, and eco-friendly—because your child’s skin and hair deserve the best.
