Parents often wonder what age you can let your child alone for a walk on the street. All children are different: in character, temperament, degree of awareness of certain situations, responsibility. Someone can let go for a walk in the yard five years, and someone scared and six - seven years.
In five or six years, it is not necessary to give the child a bicycle, relying on the fact that the child will not forget the ban on driving on the roadway. Children very quickly addicted and forget the parental mandates and prohibitions.
If you allow your child to take to the street toys, be mentally prepared for the fact that some or all of the toys can not go home. Kids ever forget them in the sandbox, on the benches, or heartily presented all short-term friends on a walk.
If you are not sure about the safety of the playground, in your child's ability to react to unexpected situations and in his behavior on the street, not worth the risk, letting him alone in the yard just because you think that the time spent on a joint outing could be spent on other, more important to your opinion of the case. Before release the child on the street, think about exactly where he will walk. What kind of place is it.
If it is a children's playground, as far as it is safe, if the fence is, because some platforms arranged so that I stop the car safely on the site itself and, of course, can hurt your chance baby. Look how safe are arranged swings, slides, and other gaming facilities. Is not there a number of posts with electrical wires when the wires are hanging suspiciously, possibly torn.
As well, important to ensure that your child is able to open the door. If the intercom, the child should be able to use them or to know how he can open the door, if he wants to get home. If at this time you will not be home, the child should know how it gets into the apartment. That is able to handle the keys to be able to open the door.
Teach your child how he should behave with strangers or unfamiliar people. Under no circumstances, exhortations and promises, he should not leave the yard. Just ask your permission, warning you. A child should not approach the machines, especially to sit in them, even if it invites the familiar family man.
