Kids and Studies.

 


At present asking for studies from the kids is almost impossible, as they are very interested in the mobile games. Watching movies on the internet and using mobile phone even at night and making their health at bay. In such circumstance, it is very difficult to convert their attention towards studies. Following are the techniques to convert the attention of the kids towards studies.


"Read Books Yourself"

In children, the best way to instill a passion for reading is to read books in front of them. Read books in front of children. This way, the child will develop an interest in reading as well. Parents should read books daily so that the child can be attracted to this in an unconscious manner.

"Home Library"

Having a small home library, even if it's modest, is essential because it proves to be quite helpful in making children inclined towards reading. Research has shown a strong correlation between the number of books at home and the overall educational aptitude of children. Parents who keep a larger number of books at home tend to benefit more in this regard. This is because daily interaction with books establishes a habitual connection for them.

"Read Aloud from Books"

Turning reading into a recreational group activity has its benefits too. When books are read aloud in a group, children learn correct pronunciation and it improves their reading fluency.

"Adopt an Interesting Style"

If you're making reading a habit for your child, books will start feeling more enjoyable to them. However, they might not know what kinds of topics and books exist in the world. So, whenever you go out and your child asks you about things, take note of those questions. Afterward, you can do two things. The easy way is to read and answer these questions yourself, but a more impactful way that instills a love for books is to gift them books related to their favorite topics at least once a month.

"Make Reading a Habit"

The enthusiasm for reading books can be incorporated into children's habits just like other healthy activities and games. As parents, you can allocate specific time for reading every day. Because a habit is formed when something is done regularly and consistently, try to make reading a habit in your children, even on days when you might be very busy unexpectedly.

"According to a survey by the U.S. Department of Education, children who read have higher confidence, retention, and leadership skills. Research suggests that individuals who regularly read not only learn something new every day but also have a higher standard of knowledge and intelligence compared to others."
