On Planning With Kids
Jadi ceritanya pagi ini daddy coba implementasikan tips yang mommy share hari Minggu kemarin tentang membuat perencanaan bareng anak.
Sambil sarapan sereal, daddy tanya:
“So, what’s your plan for today?”
Hening beberapa saat, menanti jawaban M. Kelihatannya dia bingung. Mommy cuma senyum.
Daddy pegang tangan mommy dan tanya,
“Eh… Salah ya?” (maksudnya caranya)
Trus mommy praktekin aja strategi yg mommy jalanin Minggu kemarin:
1. Pancing antusiasmenya
“Let’s have a mission for today!”
“What is it mom?”
2. Tentukan goalnya
“The mission is: to have a best day!”
“Ok!”
3. Uraikan how-to nya
“So, let’s make a plan to achieve our mission. What could make you have a best day? What would you like to do?”
4. Akomodir keinginannya
“I like drawing in SAI Paint.”
“Ok great, you’re talented in drawing.
5. Beri batasan waktunya
"How many minutes you need for drawing?”
“40 minutes”
6. Tentukan prioritas
“Ok good, 40 minutes. Which one do you prefer: do your hobby first, or study first?”
“Do my hobby first of course.”
(Prioritas M adalah hobinya, sedangkan prioritas mommy adalah supaya ia mau belajar tanpa terpaksa, jadi nggak apa2 dia melakukan hobinya lebih dulu).
7. Agreement.
“Ok deal! Let’s do it today!”
*big smile and toast*
