How do I get my 3 year old daughter to share.?
Answers:
It's really hard to share! A lot of parents expect their child to share but do you? Would you loan your neighbor your new car or favorite dress? What if your husband forced you to? How would you feel? It's essentially the same thing for children when it comes to their prized possessions. They don't want to share them either! If you force your child to share, it will only cause resentment and anger. Sharing is something that should come from the heart. I'm a preschool teacher and in my classroom this is what works. A child can use something for as long as they want. When they put it away another child can use it. The children understand the ways of our classroom and accept this. You can talk to your daughter in ways so that she can see the other person's point of view. "It looks like Emma really likes your toy. I bet she would like to play with it too. Maybe when you're finished she can play with it." These words may help your child empathize with the other child and they may share. If you are having another child over for a playdate, say to your daughter, "Emma is coming over soon. Let's pick out some things that you both can share together." You can also have her put away things that she doesn't want to share. Remember not to force it. Let it come from the heart. Good luck!

You have to force her. Nicely, but still you have to force her. Sit right there and make her share. Over and over again, every day. They won't do it on their own. That's how you teach them. Eventually she might do it on her own. Some people never learn.

I have five kids, they've all been three once.
read her some books that talk about sharing. buy her some dvds that talk about sharing and talk to her about it. then ask her to donate some of her old toys and clothes to children who cannot afford them and take her with you when you drop them off.

here are some books about sharing - rainbow fish, the selfish giant and the giving tree By teaching her. She learned not to do so from someone. Take her to the park to feed the ducks. Teach her to feed the birds in your garden. Teach her by pretending to be hungry yourself and plead from her. When she does any of these things praise her like you have never done before. She will soon learn.
me and my mom taught my son we showed him how me and her shared and how happy it was to share and made it fun for him and got on to him when he didn't share with other kids we would take the toy away from him if he didn't share and talk to him about why talking to them does a lot children are very smart and learn alot by watching other people!
dont worry a lot about that mom she is only three and in her eyes everything belongs to her she will share in timeinvite another child around and see what she does and does,t like to share.Then when she takes the toy away ask her to give the child something else instead.That way it was her idea as they are her toys.spend time with both of them and praise when she and the other shares.It takes time but works.keep calm and good luck.
