Preschooler-Kindergartener Education

Posted on January 13, 2014 Updated on January 14, 2014

We all as a parent worry about our kids education. With increased need of child performing in every area the pressure not only hits the child but parents as well. So with this competing world of education, what we should be doing as a parent? After giving lot of thoughts i came up with few pointer that helped me recognize whats best for my child.

• Learning

We all want our kid to learn something new in every day life that will help him grow and develop himself  physically emotionally, academically. we want an overall development for our child in every aspect of life. But how we do it?

I believe, making learning a fun experience will help a lot, there are many websites/application/books available these days that makes learning much easier and interesting for kids. One of the interesting site i came across was www. starfall.com.

• Creativity

Every Kid  is creative in their own way. But recognizing what really interest him can be difficult specially at the small age as he might be doing something one day and totally other thing another day.But we are the best judge for our child so observing closely is the only way to know.Interest can vary from reading , dancing, music, games, painting.

To know what is working best for him  is  to encourage him to try new things , its quite the possibile he wont try it again but at the same time the big possibility could be he will love it and get hook to it. You might also take the help of your child school to have him explore options.Someday he might surprise you with a beautiful painting he did.

• Interaction

Interaction is the important aspect of life  so talk with him when ever you can, it can be while you are driving him back from school or it can be a bedtime routine like story time .  Talk about what all he did in school for the day? What new did he learn today? Its not always interesting to listen to your kid talk, but it makes him feel appreciated when you listen for all the effort he put in his day.

• Courage

Tell him to be fearless, with the need to protect our children sometimes we over do for them and hence ignoring how it is impacting there growth. A small thing like asking for your stuff back from other kids or telling about any problem in school to class teacher. It seems like a big task for many of them. Being parent  i understand how painful it becomes during those time.To help him get along with other kids try to keep in group of kids for example take him to story time at your local library.

We all what to raise a happy kid and by following these small steps it will definitely help to achieve the goal in someway.
