Why Coloring Books?
Every kid loves to color. It relaxes them, allows them to let their creativity, and aids in hand eye-coordination. Coloring Books can be used to educate small children, while they are in the relaxed state, their little brains are soaking up knowledge through exposure to key educational concepts in a fun and easy to understand format. It’s critical to make education fun for a child so they will always enjoy learning and not see learning as a chore.
As the baby gets older, they can be given coloring activities with more information including cut outs and data sheets, just like their favorite trading cards. Any gaps in the youngster’s knowledge or any questions the little one may have can then be answered with a parent, or guardian as home educator.
Critical Thinking Skills, Give Him an Edge!
As with any study session, it is important to discuss subjects with your little student. Encourage your child to think critically about the information. Ask them questions like, “What did you think of that?”. Anything that initiates a dialogue with the baby to establish good critical thinking skills. Praise them often for displaying these abilities.
This way, you can establish the valuable abilities of critical thinking early on in your child’s educational and developmental phases.
Often times you can read to a child, while the child busies idle hands with a coloring activity. This keeps your kids calm and actually does help them absorb knowledge. It does this through the relaxation principle inherent in creativity. A relaxed kid does not fight against concepts and ignores facts out of boredom.
