@sydney he knows how to get off things like sofa his toddler bed my bed etc etc but when he climbs he genuinely doesn’t understand there a down after climbing anything… and I’ve tried to get him to walk down the stairs he will just stay put and if I try and encourage him holding his hands he screams the house down like I’m murdering him and even tried using the larger stairs that are outside while holding his hands thinking it would help I still get the same reaction
oh wow 😭 does he go up the stairs or does he freak out with that too? and what does he climb on that he’s dropping from?
@sydney he’s happy to climb absolutely anything if he can and it started with his cot I’m gonna say he was about 14 months he’d managed to climb it and as he went over he fell straight and thought he’s learnt his lesson type thing so put him back into his cot and it happened again so same night I built his toddler bed and he’s been in that since just don’t know how I’d teach there’s a down after a climb 😔😩
when mine was like 9 months he would want to climb on the couch and i taught him how to get down by putting him on his belly and slowly pushing him off so that he feels his legs falling off and then his feet hitting the floor. do you carry him down the stairs? or do you try to let him do it himself?
