Expert Solution
Step 1

Providing the child with the options for dressing encourages the child to develop the thinking, feeling, etc. Children's feelings should be valued.

Punishing the children disturbs their happiness and can even create a negative opinion towards the parents. So, this is not a correct option.

3 year old does not have much thinking capacity and even trying to convince them looks like supressing their feelings. So, this is not a better option.
