Do make your child share his/her reflections of the stories read. This will develop thinking, reasoning as well as aid in confidence building. Please encourage him/her, for every effort made-he/she will do better in a motivating and positive environment. To enhance your child’s learning experience, you could take the child to the market place and grocery stores.Make fruits an enjoyable part of your child’s diet
