How to develop the Art of Communication in Children?

Communication is the way of connecting with other people by exchange of information.

Five skills to master communication in children are:

1.      Maintain Eye contact:

• We have to maintain eye contact with the person we are talking to.
• In the beginning, it may look funny or hard to follow.
• But in practice, we can get it and it is the main skill in communication.

2.      Right posture for communication:

• We have to be in the correct posture when we are communicating.
• This posture depends upon the place and the people whom we talk to.
• It also depends upon the purpose of communication (Example is student communicating with a teacher in standing posture.)

3.      Speaking clearly:

• We have to be clear in our talk.
• The communicating matter should be relevant to what is happening.
• The speech must be understandable.

4.      Use of please and thank you:

• Use of the words “please” and “thank you” makes the conversation polite.
• The speech attracts the attention of the people if we use these words.
• It shows our good manners and gratitude also.

5.      Speaking completely:

• We should deliver whatever we think to talk in a proper way.
• It should not be left half said and half not said.
• Ideas should be clearly and completely conveyed without any interruptions to the other people or the audience.

All these tips help to enhance the communication skill to the next level.
