* When planning your trip to a Museum make sure you go at a good time for your child, not what is a good time for you. Ex. Don’t go at meltdown time…Go after a nap… Go after they have eaten.

選擇適合孩子的時段參觀博物館, 而不是方便家長的時段。讓孩子休息好﹐ 出門前吃點東西。

 


- Know the Museum rules for where you are visiting. Some prohibit photography, food, etc. in certain areas.

讓孩子了解你們將要參觀的博物館的指引,注意事項和必要的規矩,比方說有些地不能拍照,不能吃東西等等。


 

* Go over your rules and expectations for visiting a Museum with your child. Small children might need to be reminded several times. Remember that short attention span! If they do well in one area, be sure to praise them for good behavior.  Be vigilant in watching and being responsible for your child while you are there.

做好事前溝通﹐讓孩子知道你的想法和期望。孩子的注意力不會很長﹐ 對年齡小的孩子家長要多提醒。 如果他們做得好可別吝嗇贊美的話。參觀期間家長要留心看好孩子

提醒孩子把手 切勿觸摸藝術品以免損壞

 

* Never run, gallop, skip, jump, etc. in the galleries.

* Stay together with the guide and the group during the visit.

* Parents, if your child has a meltdown remove them immediately from the area.

如果孩子鬧別扭, 請馬上帶他們離開參觀的地方。
