Parents of preschoolers can expect to start hearing from their children often around their second birthday that, “I’ll do it myself!” This declaration of independence provides a golden opportunity for parents to allow their young kids to make their skills perfect, as long as the rules aren’t broken. Parents should remind themselves of their ultimate goals i.e. to bring up self confident and self-sufficient children. So you should have patience to bear with your child’s mistakes and balance the need to get chores done against the importance of teaching your preschoolers important living skills. So here are some skills that can be used by parents when their little ones start demanding independence:
Don’t make assumptions that your child will be unable to do something, but try to make him do certain activities:
Always keep track of your child’s changing level of knowledge. You have to make sure to give him a chance to try something before doing it for him. Always tell your child how much time you have for a certain activity, so he won’t think it’s his inability to do something that makes you take over the job. Set a timer for the number of minutes you want to allow for the task. This helps your child to learn a sense of being in time and it reduces the power struggle between you and your child.
Buy clothes which can your child wear comfortably on his own:
While buying clothes for your little ones, parents must sure to shop for those clothes which can easily go over your child’s head and not get stuck on his shoulders when he tries to put on his clothes himself.
Storing of clothes in accessible manner: 
Help your child develop an eye for mix and match their clothes like which shirt will go with these shorts. They should know how to make coordination by sorting their clothes.  Make them accessible by putting them in drawers and small bins where they can easily reach or put all their clothing in one place where they can find out themselves where to reach for clothes.
Suggest cooperation and sharing:
Because your child doesn’t understand why he can’t do certain jobs and he doesn’t realize that he’ll be able to do it eventually, suggest sharing a job by having her do what he can while you do the rest. Whenever possible let your child accomplish some portion of the task instead of merely watching you and feeling inadequate.
Appreciate his effort and count it also:
Being your child’s first and most important teacher, you can encourage her to attempt doing various tasks. Teach her that “practice makes perfect” e.g. if she tried to braid her hair, tell her that it’s great try and can try again later, too. Or praise your child’s attempt at putting on her shoes, even if she does it incorrectly.
Be patient and allow as much independence as possible:
If your child wants to do everything, remember that she’s asserting her independence, not her obstinacy. Since you want her to learn to do things by herself, let her try. Avoid getting upset when things aren’t done correctly and quickly. Instead be proud in the fact that your child is taking his first step to independence. Let your child do as much by herself as she can, so frustration doesn’t replace her innate curiosity.
To make your preschooler more likely to ask for things nicely, show her how to make requests politely. There are bound to be few mistakes along the way, so be patient. Avoid pointing out your child’s mistakes, along the way. Don’t feel hurt because your child doesn’t appreciate your help. Your child knows that you can do things faster and with less effort, but your child wants and needs to develop her skills. Appreciate his efforts to do things on his own.
