Promote Learning During Everyday Activities

You are your child’s number one teacher. But you don’t always have to set aside a special block of time to teach. Just do the things you normally need and want to do, but do them with your child.

As you go about your daily routine together, let your child observe and ask questions. Let your child help. Encourage curiosity and thinking by asking questions: “Why do you think I do it this way?” “Where does the dryer get its hot air?” “The food will take about 15 minutes to warm up. We want to eat by six o’clock. When should we put it in the oven?”
