During my childhood days mom gave me quite a lot of crossword to solve. Howsoever difficult, few clues were enough to solve it easily. My mom also loved solving crossword so we used to spend good amount of time solving these together. We loved that time of ours.
Most of the moms often get worried when their child looses focus and concentration. Child's Concentration is a mother's main worry these days. In fact it's quite natural and normal as well given the pressures kids face these days. With the growing age kids face immense pressure of studies, sports, extracurricular activities, competitions and much more. They get distracted due to emotional and psychological issues as well.
As a mother of 8 years old, I have faced these challenges so I started searching and reading about this topic. I am sharing my experience here that how we practiced a few games at home which gave me visible results in increasing my Child's Concentration.
Well, we all know if a child is able to think he is able to plan and implement. Ultimately, the goal is achieved that is concentration. We need to encourage kids to play puzzle games like Jigsaw puzzle, crosswords, spelling games, Games like UNO to attain attentiveness.
Kids love this game give them a number or sentence in a jumbled manner and ask them to put in proper sequence, keep the timer on. You will see the best result of this and Child's Concentration will improve especially in English if you gave sentences and maths if you play with numbers, As a result a god hold on these subjects is achieved.
I am sure all moms will love this. I ask my kids to sit in one position without talking, laughing and moving like a statue. And you know what my younger one is always ready to laugh as soon as we say start. And my elder one always wins. This is a game to make them learn to sit in one place and the importance of silence. This gradually improves Child's Concentration and focus.
You can teach your child playing Sudoku. Playing Sudoku is a very good exercise for the brain it definitely helps in increasing Child's Concentration. It improves Child's Concentration , memory and logical thinking. As well as in my came my daughter feels happy too. I ask her to play online on livesudoku.com. one can choose the level they wish to play beginners, medium, hard and extreme. You have a 9X9 grid to play or for kids, a 3X3 grid is also available. It's so much fun and my daughter does not close it until she completes it.
We all have seen Rubik's Cube and this one game is good to increase the Child's Concentration likewise it also improves eye and hand coordination. Again you can opt for a small cube or a bigger one as per the need of a child.
