The reason why babies slap their faces is because their brains are under development and they are full of curiosity about everything. And most babies are very interested in human facial features.

Someone once did an experiment: put 3 papers with the big face in front of the child. One has a normal human face, one has the facial features disrupted, and the other is empty. It turns out that the baby is more interested in the paper with the face painted on it.

As we all know, the vision of young babies is not as good as that of adults, and they are also forgetful. Maybe you just teased him today, and tomorrow he will forget you completely.

So if you want him to feel familiar with the appearance of a person, it must be the one who appears in front of him every day and has the most contact with him. Most of this person is a mother.

Since he was in contact with his mother the most time since birth, he naturally remembered her appearance more clearly. So they will be more interested in their mother's facial features.

Why do you want to "beat" with your hands?

In fact, this action is just a touch command given by the opponent in order to obtain more information during the brain's developmental period. However, at this time the brain has not developed enough to distinguish the difference between patting, beating and stroking.

So when they start, they will be indifferent. And most importantly, they are instinctively more interested in exploring the holes in Bao Ma's face, such as eyes, nostrils, and mouth.

So they will put their little hands into mother's mouth and nostrils by surprise. If it's just these two things, sometimes it's a big deal if you are caught off guard by being pricked in the eye by your own baby.

What should mom do?

The best way is to protect yourself and your baby, and leave the rest alone. For example, when the baby's fingers are about to stick into his eyes or hot water or rice, Bao Ma needs to stop it in time to avoid injury.

In fact, even if Bao Ma wanted to find a way to manage it, the effect would not be very good.

After this period of time, the baby's desire period has passed, this situation will be improved.

But before that, except for necessary circumstances, Bao Ma tried not to interfere. Forcibly prohibiting your baby from touching things with his hands will affect his brain development process and even leave a psychological shadow!
