Last week we tried to understand how each child is different and how hence, their reaction to everything varies! Let’s take a step further and understand how we can help build a conducive environment at home for our children to study comfortably!
Kids are mostly all for learning new things, reading interesting and fun facts, but most of them are not always the first to jump into studying. The reality is that most kids do not understand why they have to study. To them, it’s a chore that takes away their iPad time. As parents, it is our duty to help them understand why they need to partake in this activity that seems to be devoid of any fun.
Why would kids want to do math when they could spend time with their friends? It’s so much more fun to hang out and chat than to be tied to a desk, writing a long essay or solving a difficult problem. Who can blame them for wanting to get away?
The trick is to get children to choose to stay and study. Introducing children to long-term goals can be vital in teaching them how to invest in their own future. And it can begin very easily. The next time you’re eating dinner together, ask your child what they want to be when they grow up. Whether they want to become a train driver or an astronaut, use that goal to show them the importance of studying well to reach it.
Make Studying More Pleasant
As a new-age parent, it is hard to force your child to sit down and study, given the many distractions in the surrounding.
But you have a major role to play when it comes to where your child is studying. The right surroundings can be crucial to your child’s concentration and their success.
- Right and healthy snacks while studying, not only keep children full and engaged but also help keep them healthy, by ensuring they don’t binge eat under stress. With the right nutrition, we will ensure that our child is not hungry or thirsty. A glass of beverage, such as delicious Milo, can definitely make studying more fun!
- A well-lit study corner, with the least amount of distractions, and all the stationery supplies handy, can go a long way in keeping the child grounded on his or her desk to study.
- If the child is sure that he or she can count on your help, regardless of their results, will motivate them to tackle the difficult problems and questions they face while studying, instead of running away from them.
The moment they know you are around to help if needed, is a good enough boost for their morale and therefore, the urge to succeed and please you will surface.
So, what are we waiting for? Let’s give our children the support that they need and help them fulfill their highest potential – simply by being there and motivating them!
