COACH THE LEARNING BY PLAYING
Whether your child is in a school building or in your living room, most of their day involves structured schoolwork. This structured approach to learning is important, but so is play. Coach the learning by making sure your child has time for play throughout the week. Play provides an opportunity to use information in different ways. It also builds social, physical, and verbal skills.
