Reading

If reading becomes your children’s favorite hobby and pastime, then they will never be lonely, bored or without entertainment. They will also be making a real difference to their education as readers tend to have strong writing skills, good memories and improved concentrations spans. 

With millions of books in the world, there is bound to be a subject matter that will grab your child and hook him or her. He or she may love to read fantasy fiction or perhaps humor will be entertaining. Non-fiction may be favored and books about astronomy or nature may be devoured. It might not even be books themselves that are interesting, graphic novels, comics or magazines could be what suits your child. The type does not matter, as long as your child is enjoying reading as they will always be learning something.

If your child is a reluctant reader or perhaps struggles, you could look into audio books for kids or reading programs to both support and capture interest. 

Sports

We all know the importance of physical exercise for your body, so sports are a great way for children to keep fit, burn off some of that energy and love what they are doing.

Try to give your child as many opportunities as possible to sample a good selection of sports. They might take to team games, it might be ball games, they could love martial arts or perhaps athletics holds an appeal. There are hundreds of sports for them to try so the chances are that they will find one that suits them.

Sports not only keep children fit, they can also encourage team play, they reinforce the importance of understanding and following rules and they encourage a level of commitment and discipline. 

The arts

Creativity is good for our children as it helps them to express themselves and can help to develop logical and problem-solving thinking. The arts encompasses something for everyone, so there will be a field that your child takes to and finds fulfilling.

Your children may be drawn to art itself, or perhaps they love spending time getting crafty. The kids might love to write poems, scripts and stories, love to sing or act, or may ask for a camera to work on their photography skills. 

Some are more practical and yearn to sew or knit clothes and bedding, or perhaps baking as an art form will tempt them. 

In all cases, your child is offered the opportunity to learn and develop skills whilst being able to express themselves.
