To the parents, it is advisable always to trim your child’s nails always so as to prevent hands contamination and injuries.

Aggression

In Tigers and children, they both tend to express their feelings through changing their regular face expressions.

It is the same face you may experience from a child who may be aggrieved by something, or he or she is need of a particular thing from you. It is, therefore, mandatory for the parents to be able to notice and interpret any expression a child make.

Sleeping habits

In any ordinary day, the Tiger will be busy resting, sitting around, cleaning itself and most commonly sleeping. For the Tiger, it does all that to save up all its strength for the few minutes it have to hunt for its food. It is a similar practice that you will witness among almost all children. After a child has been busy all morning playing, he or she will retreat to the house later in the afternoon to sleep. It is the similar scenario to that of Tigers whereby; the children will be seeking the much-needed rest so as regain energy back.
