Sharing refers to an act of willingly parting with what we own/possess. It is reflected as a behavioral output and invariably would differ from one person to another.

At a very early stage of their life, as toddlers, kids generally develop their social and behavioral skills. It is natural to see our kids getting possessive for their belongings and refusing to share it with their friends.

While the above methods would help kids to learn the act of sharing, it is also important to not push them beyond a limit when they do not want to. Never ever punish them or shout at them for not sharing and don’t make an issue about it. At a better time, sit with them and calmly tell them the benefits of sharing. Once the habit of sharing is learnt, it remains with the kid for the rest of their life.
