How to stop 5 year old children from crying?
Answer:
It depends on why they are crying. If they are just being whiny or crying because they didn't get their way, then just tell them that you can't listen to them when they are crying and that you'll listen to them when they can talk without crying. Then just kind of ignore them until they stop. Now if they have a really good reason for crying then you need to see what you can do to help them
Toys !
Tell them your going to whip them if they don't stop crying.
First, find the source of their tears and the solution follows. Are they sick or in pain? Treat the symptom. Hungry? Feed them. Bored? Find them something to do. Tired? Nap. Angry/Frustrated? Soothe them, talk, etc. Just plain attention seeking for no legitimate reason? Ignore.
It depends on why the child is crying.
- fix his boo-boo if he is hurt
- hug him and ask what's wrong and listen to what he says
- ask him to draw a picture of how he feels
- be sensitive to his needs
- if he wants something he can't have, empathize with him: "I know how much X means to you, but.."
- validate his feelings
- ask him if he needs some private time to calm down
- do/say something funny to get him laughing

sweets? depends why they crying!
Eye contact, down to their level. Calm them down and ask them in a gentle voice what is bothering them. They do not know how to express themselves like we do, crying comes easily. Give them a hug, some time and love. Kids are brill!!
Chocolate hash cake, that will do the trick.
by giving them attention
find the source and address it
If there is nothing physically wrong, then ignore them.
When you pay attention to behavior you are rewarding it. What is rewarded is repeated.
Depends on the situation. If it's a paddy/tantrum cry then leave them to tantrum it out. If they are genuinely upset about something talk to them when they are calm i.e have stopped crying, and try to work out a solution together. Ask them why they are crying and what would make them feel better. I have a two year old and if she tantrums I make sure she's safe and walk away. If it something that is bugging her i.e she's hurt herself/fallen I use distraction. Playing with toys, watching a movie or looking for aeroplanes out of the window usually works.
