The Taurus child: What you need to know about this creative little one

The zodiac sign of Taurus extends from April 20 to May 20. When it comes to this sign, much emphasis is placed on indulgence in the pleasures that life has to offer. Whether from a physical or material point of view.

These children are famously stubborn. Therefore, you can throw authority out the window when it comes to forcing them to do something. It's like trying to take on a bull head-on and, let's face it, you're not that accomplished a Toreador, are you?

1) They are quite pragmatic in their approach to life from an early age;

2) Difficult times will come from their complacent natures;

3) The Taurus girl is very stubborn and will only take things away from her;

4) The Taurus child is very aware of his capabilities and what he can achieve from others.

Taurus babies are some of the cutest babies you can find and they get so cuddly you could die. There are very few things they love more than cuddles and love, so the more the merrier.

They can be quite sensitive individuals who love to spread hugs and smiles all over the place. Taurus children are also known to be the most pragmatic of the bunch.

This also extends to how they handle extreme feelings and emotions. It is not often that they lose their temper.

These children are usually calmer than their age would suggest and always seem to have a smile on their face. They are the happy-go-lucky type.

The only way to make them lose their temper is to force their hand too much. Although they like to socialise, they do not like to be the centre of attention.

There really is no such thing as a bad Taurus child. They are just big, lovable balls of serenity and happiness.

One mistake you should avoid making is being harsh with them or forcing them to do something against their will. The best way to convince them of something is to use patience, a calm tone and sound reasoning.

You should always be objective and honest with them.

Taurus children show an early interest in artistic subjects. Virtually anything that can support their creative side. School work is also something they will excel at, as they are brilliant when it comes to learning new things and adapting.

Their determination and diligence also help enormously. They will not have many problems in rearing. All that is needed is a calm tone and patience to bring them up.

Another of their strong traits is their undying loyalty to family and those they hold dear. They will fight with everything they have to come to their aid.

Their most basic needs, though important, are emotional in nature. So fill them with affection and compassion. Serenity and harmony are essential in the home for these children.

If you have a Taurus toddler, you might as well start a singing career with the number of times you will be lulled to sleep.

You'd better pray for nerves of steel, because once they start talking, whether in words or mere sounds, they won't stop. It doesn't matter what situation they are in either.

As the years go by, you will notice that your baby is becoming rather stubborn and may take life's pleasures a little too much to heart, so you may need to worry, if only a little.

This is normal, yes, but make sure you give them the right crash course on excesses.

One thing to keep in mind is that if your Taurus child seems annoyed or irritable when the day starts, chances are they will stay that way no matter what.

At least until they go back to sleep and wake up the next morning feeling better and refreshed.

As they are an Earth sign, it is natural for them to feel better when they go outdoors. As such, it is obvious that too much time indoors will not do them any good.

They tend to overindulge when it comes to anything that feels or tastes good, so your little bull could end up a little overweight if you're not careful enough.

However, as has been said, it has to be great! So if the food isn't to his liking, he might as well starve until you make him something tastier. You may also want to have more pairs of napkins, as they tend to get quite messy at mealtimes.

Well, you're in for a fight. Your child will give you nothing but trouble. Why? Well, let's just say she's very stubborn.

You'd better give him a pen and paper to write down your daily routine. Because he won't have it any other way.

No matter how much you want to or how hard you try. You won't be able to convince her of anything if she doesn't want it.

So you can forget about trying to feed her those cereals she won't stop refusing. This characteristic of hers will be the hardest test you will face while raising her.

In fact, she may find pleasure in your unsuccessful attempts to tame her.

Her emotions make her open to communication and socialisation. At least as long as she is familiar with her interlocutors.

She loves to be affectionate with family members, especially grandparents. Before you know it, you will see your daughter as an adult, even if she has not yet reached adolescence.

It's how developed her intellect is and how wise she is. She gives the impression of being a reliable adult.

Like the Taurus girl, your son won't give up a fight until he wins it. So good luck trying to make a point or win an argument.

If he is unwilling, victory will not be yours no matter how hard you try. The only way you can hope to bend his will or change his mind is by using facts, patience and love.

These are the effective tools you have at your disposal, so you better use them. So you should make safe use of all the cuddles and hugs in your arsenal!

This emotional sensitivity also extends outside the family. He loves to give and receive affection.

His physical prowess is easily noticeable no matter what he does. No matter what the situation, your guy will always stand tall, strong and quite handsome while doing it.

It is mainly because they are aware of their strengths and it shows. It's a good thing they don't let such things go to their heads. Pretty mature of them, don't you think? He makes his own timetable and is always meticulous and pragmatic in everything he does.

They love to go out and can't get enough of nature. So the best thing to do is to go on an expedition to the national park. Or any local park, for that matter. You won't hear them complaining.

They have a great affinity for music. Whether they make it themselves or just listen to it, it doesn't matter.

They just love it. Their talent is worth nurturing, so buying them some instruments to practice on would not be a bad idea at all.

Their nature makes them get along very well with family members, especially if they are of the same age.

If they have no other siblings, make sure they have enough time to socialise and play with children their own age to simulate the bonding and closeness that siblings would have.
