At home
Your little brother is trying to pour his own juice and it is wobbling.
What could you do first?
Three things you could say. None of them is the one right answer; each note says why it fits the moment, or why it may not.
Ask: "Do you want a hand, or have you got it?"
A strong fit
It offers and lets him choose. He can say no.
Move the cup closer and let him pour.
Also works here
This makes it easier without taking over. It works.
Take the bottle off him.
Worth a second look
You can. Taking things away usually makes little kids cross.
What people here usually expect
- Little kids often want to do it themselves. Asking respects that.
- Making it easier without taking over is kind.
- A spill is normal. It can be wiped up.
