All parents are very cautious about the health of their children. Everyone wants their child to be healthy. To become the best not only physically but also mentally, just focusing on diet is not enough. Therefore, it is important that after school, there is a need to pay attention to the mental development of children at home also, so that they can develop mentally also. To do this, you can adopt some special measures after school, which will give children fun and also exercise their brain. Let us know about some of those methods.
After a long study at school, a child becomes mentally and physically tired, in such a situation, when he comes home, make him take a power nap of 30-45 minutes. This will remove their fatigue and they will get energy to do other activities of the day. By taking a power nap, the child will be able to focus on things better.
Making children curious about new things will increase their curiosity about new information and will also increase their vocabulary. For this, you can make a story about new things and narrate it to them, because children love to listen to stories. This will make them more curious about new information.
By telling children to study all day long, they start getting bored of studies. Therefore, apart from studies, inspire them to do something creative, like painting, crafting, dancing etc. This will develop their new hobby and also increase their creativity. You can also join them in these activities, which will make your bond with them stronger.
There are some games which make the mind active and lead to intellectual development of the child. For this you can play board games, Sudoku games, puzzles, cross words and other brain teasers with them. This strengthens their decision making skills, reasoning skills and observational skills, which are very important for mental development.
To increase the general knowledge of children, prepare a list of 20-25 questions for children, in which some questions should be included from their subjects and some from outside. This will increase their mental capacity and increase their knowledge and they will also enjoy finding the answers like a quiz.
