Sprucing up the house, daily chores and being organized is very challenging especially during this lockdown. There is absolutely no harm in taking a little help from your little ones in getting things done.
Getting children to get to bed on time can be very challenging especially during this lockdown period. It is said that, for physical and mental development, children need 10 to 11 hours of uninterrupted sleep.
Setting up a cozy corner at home for our children to read books is a great way to encourage them to get into the habit of early learning. To make it an interesting activity, you can design and make the reading corner along with your child!
Helping your child understand how to tie his or her shoelace can be very tricky initially. Learning to tie shoelaces is a very good way to help kids develop fine motor skills. This is a nice skill they can learn during the lockdown! Tip: Draw a shoe on cardboard and make holes on it. Give your child a shoelace and let them practice.
Sensory play is crucial for brain development – it helps to build nerve connections in the brain’s pathways. If you’re bored at home (and handy with tools), take this opportunity to make a sensory board along with your child.
Do a fun project along with your children to keep yourself occupied. For example – turn a few cardboard boxes into a cute house.
