Wondering what your Taurus child will be like? Consider these typical traits found in children born under the Taurus sign.

Being a parent is already a given challenge. If your particular child, however, is born between April 20 and May 20, then – good news! – you don’t have much to worry about.

Being an Earth sign, Taureans are generally drawn towards stability. In other words, you don’t have to worry about your little one fooling around in power sockets, or your tween getting mixed up in the wrong crowd.

Even as children, people with Taurus as their sun sign aren’t fond of getting into trouble (unlike the adventure-seeking fire signs). Be careful not to be lulled into a false sense of security, though – Taurus children can still be quite a handful, especially if you’re forcing them to eat their greens or clean their room.

Interesting Things You Should Know About Raising A Taurus Child

Want to know exactly what you’re in for? Here’s everything you need to know about raising a Taurus child.

1. They stand their ground.

Taureans aren’t represented by the Bull for no reason. Although they are generally uncomplicated and quite peaceful, you would definitely feel the brunt of the horns if you force your child to do something they’re not particularly interested in or inclined to. T

his stubbornness could manifest into them being very picky eaters. In another scenario, they could also tend to throw really bad tantrums when, say, you don’t buy them their favorite toy.

Don’t lose hope just yet because there are ways to circumvent this. Taureans can still be sensible. So to get them to do what you ask (which should be what is best for them, anyway), try different approaches. Mix their veggies in the main dish so they won’t taste it. Tell them they can get two gifts for their birthday if they just let this one go.

If you think about it, this unwillingness to budge can also be a positive quality in some situations. This would help them stick to the values and beliefs that you try to inculcate in them.

2. Their love language is physical touch.

Taurus is ruled by the planet Venus, which represents everything that has to do with beauty and love. Anyone who is ruled by Venus is also ruled by their five senses: sight, smell, taste, hearing, and, most importantly, touch.

For Taurus children, this means that they crave physical affection a whole lot (although young ones, in general, need as much positive physical attention as they can get from their parents). So if you’re raising a little bull, be sure to give them as many kisses and cuddles as they can handle.

3. They enjoy following a routine.

You might know this already, but a Taurus child is perhaps one of the most obedient and discipline children you can ever have the pleasure of meeting. This is primarily because Taureans love a routine.

They like seeing things as a whole (like their day) and knowing what comes or happens after something. It is also for this reason that most Taurus children excel in school. Since there’s already a system in place and they just have to follow in, they’re really in their element when they’re in the classroom.

Knowing this, it’s probably best if you don’t spring any significantly big surprises to your Taurus child, especially if it errs on the negative side (moving to a different city, getting a divorce, etc.) When a negative thing comes out of nowhere, the only thing your Taurus child will think is that it threatens their stable life – and it would be quite difficult for them to let go of that.

4. They can have quite a bad temper.

Since they stand firmly with what they like and believe in, it can be a bit of a disaster when Taurus children don’t get a hold of their temper. It is not unlike when bulls see red.

To stop this from getting out of hand, try to be on the lookout for any signs that your Taurus child could be developing a bad temper. That way, you could already teach them to be more patient before they get to that point where they’re flipping tables and breaking furniture.

5. They like what they like

Being the bull, once a Taurus child decides that they like something and that is their favorite, they are sticking to it. Taurus children can take a long time to analyze and weigh their options.

Once they have chosen something they like, they can be quite stubborn about changing it or trying something else. For example, they can be adamant about sticking to their favorite toy or TV show or food. As stated before, kids under the Taurus sign tend to thrive under regular routines since they like consistency.

This need to be consistent also applies to their desires and materials things around them. You might have to coax your little Taurean kid more to open up to try different things.

(Conclusion)
Children, no matter the zodiac sign, are always a joy to be around. A Taurus child, however, is one that you would want to keep around. Just be careful with how you approach your little bull when they’re acting out, and you’d be good to go.
