Probably the single most important thing you want your toddler to learn is that adults are important, rewarding, and fun to interact with. You can tell when a child feels connected to adults. He will seek them out and smiles when he sees them. He will reach for them or go to them when he is happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nSpend as much time as possible interacting and engaging with your child to help him see that adults are fun, rewarding, and comforting.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Also, when the child is frightened, sad, hungry, or hurting, he knows that adults can make him feel better. He finds adults comforting as well as fun. He will want to be with them when he is unhappy. Watch how this little boy runs to his own mother when he\u2019s hurt even though another adult is trying to make him feel better.<\/p>\n\n\n
