Iintonga kunye nabantwana - iingcebiso ezifanelekileyo nezikhuselekileyo

Emva kotyando okanye ukwenzakala, umntwana wakho angadinga iintonga zokuhamba. Umntwana wakho ufuna iintonga zokuxhasa ukuze kungabikho bunzima bufakwa emlenzeni womntwana wakho. Ukusebenzisa iintonga akukho lula kwaye kuyenzeka. Qiniseka ukuba iintonga zomntwana wakho zilungile kwaye ufunde iingcebiso ngokhuseleko.

Buza umboneleli wezempilo womntwana wakho ukuba alingane ngeentonga kumntwana wakho. Ukulunga okufanelekileyo kwenza ukuba kube lula ukusebenzisa iintonga zokuncedisa kwaye kugcina umntwana wakho ekulimaleni xa uzisebenzisa. Nokuba umntwana wakho uzilungele iintonga:

• Beka iminqwazi yerabha kwiiphedi zangaphantsi, iirholithi kunye neenyawo.
• Lungisa iintonga ukuya kubude obufanelekileyo. Ngeentonga zimi nkqo kwaye umile umntwana wakho, qiniseka ukuba ungabeka iminwe emi-2 phakathi kwekhwapha lomntwana wakho kunye nomphezulu weentonga. Iicrutch pads ngakwikhwapha zinokunika umntwana wakho irhashalala kwaye zibeke uxinzelelo kwimithambo-luvo nakwimithambo yegazi engalweni. Uxinzelelo oluninzi lunokonakalisa imithambo yegazi kunye nemithambo yegazi.
• Lungisa ukuphakama kweehandgrip. Kufanele ukuba zibe lapho izihlahla zomntwana wakho zikhona xa iingalo zabo zixhomekeke ecaleni okanye esinqeni. Iingqiniba kufuneka zigobe ngobunono xa zime kwaye zibambe iizandla.
• Qinisekisa ukuba iingqiniba zomntwana wakho zigobile kancinci xa uqala ukusebenzisa i-crutch, emva koko zandiswa xa uthatha inyathelo.

Fundisa umntwana wakho ukuba:

• Soloko ugcine iintonga zokufikela kufutshane.
• Nxiba izihlangu ezingatyibilikiyo.
• Hamba kancinci. I-crutch inokubanjwa kwinto ethile okanye isliphu xa uzama ukuhamba ngokukhawuleza.
• Jonga indawo yokuhamba emtyibilizi. Amagqabi, umkhenkce nekhephu konke kuyamtyibilika. Ukutyibilika akuyongxaki ngokubanzi kwiindlela ezimanzi okanye kwiipavumente ukuba iintonga zinamacebo erabha. Kodwa iingcebiso ze-crutch ezimanzi kumgangatho wangaphakathi zinokutyibilika.
• Ungaze uzixhome ezintongeni. Oku kubeka uxinzelelo kwimithambo-luvo yengalo kwaye kunokubangela umonakalo.
• Phatha ubhaka oneemfuno. Ngale ndlela izinto kulula ukufikelela kunye nokuphuma endleleni.

Izinto ezinokwenziwa ngabazali:

• Beka izinto ekhayeni lakho ezinokubangela ukuba umntwana wakho akhubeke. Oku kubandakanya iintambo zombane, izinto zokudlala, ukuphosa iiragi, kunye nempahla phantsi.
• Thetha nesikolo ukunika umntwana wakho ixesha elongezelelekileyo lokuhamba phakathi kweeklasi kunye nokuphepha izihlwele epasejini. Jonga ukuba umntwana wakho angacela imvume yokusebenzisa iilifti kwaye aziphephe izinyuko.
• Jonga iinyawo zokukrwitsha ukunyathela. Qiniseka ukuba azimtyibilizi.
• Jonga izikrufu kwizinti ngoku zonke iintsuku ezimbalwa. Ziyakhululwa ngokulula.

Fowunela umnikezeli ukuba umntwana wakho ubonakala engakhuselekanga ngeentonga nasemva kokuziqhelanisa nawe. Umboneleli unokukuthumela kunyangi onokuthi afundise umntwana wakho indlela yokusebenzisa iintonga.

Ukuba umntwana wakho ukhalaza ngokugungqa, ukubetha, okanye ukulahleka kwemvakalelo engalweni okanye esandleni sakhe, tsalela umnikezeli.
