Preparing a child for school at any age can be a challenge, and part of the challenge is what supplies to get. However, many may wonder why a parent or guardian would need to get supplies for their child who will be enrolled in preschool. At first glance it doesn't seem like a three or four year-old would need much of anything.
How to help? So now that we have established the need to help your child with their homework, we need to address how this can be accomplished. In many cases getting your child to do their homework or feel motivated to know more about a certain subject can create many obstacles. Here are some suggestions that can help parents and students alike:
An environment to thrive in At most summer camps, the mental, physical, social, and emotional growth of kids is the main goal. There are reading camps, sports camps, adventure camps, religious camps, you name it. No matter what type of camp it is or who sponsors it, childhood development is at the forefront. Activities ranging from campfire games to kitchen duty to learning survival skills, all encourage qualities like teamwork, responsibility, patience, learning, and growth. This is what camps do.
Plan: Make a plan with your child to include what the assignment is, when it is due, and what they need to complete it. This may also include a time frame that is needed to complete the assignment. Give them a planner so that they can write down their assignments. Give them rewards for doing their schoolwork consistently.
Relationships Perhaps the most important way children develop is through the unique relationships they have at camp. Councilors strive to be more like extra-tall and wise friends than teachers or parents. Fellow campers are treated equally and everyone is expected to participate to make camping life a success. Each child becomes an important part of the community.
A preschooler will also need a plastic container or organizer to keep pencils, makers, and crayons in so they don't get lost. Also providing a backpack to keep the supplies in will help them to stay organized, and the teacher can put assignments and finished art projects in the bag. Including an extra pair of clothes is also good in case your child has an accident or spills something on their clothes.
Stony Brook Summer Camp is one great local resource for your kids to experience this kind of growth and build memories that will last a lifetime. Let them experience the fun, friendship, and development only possible through summer camps!
