All children have two wonderful resources for learning–imagination and curiosity. As a parent, you can awaken your children to the joy of learning by encouraging their imagination and curiosity.
Teaching and learning are not mysteries that can only happen in school. They also happen when parents and children do simple things together.
For instance, sorting the socks on laundry day can learn about math and science; cooking a meal together involves not only math and science but good health as well; tell and read each other stories is the basis for reading and writing (and a story about the past is also history); or play a game of hopscotch together playing physical games will help your child learn to count and start on a road to lifelong fitness.
By doing things together, you will show that learning is fun and important. You will be encouraging your child to study, learn, and stay in school.
