Childhood Heroes

Posted by on Wednesday Jun 23, 2010 Under Childhood Education, Parenting, Psychology

There is an old proverb that says that it takes an entire community to raise a child.  Even if you aren’t a certain child’s parent, you can influence them in order to grow up to be a better person.  One of the easiest ways to do this is as a coach.  The characteristics that you show the children and youth through each game will give them qualities to look back on, all which will help them throughout their life.

The major way that a coach can influence children is simply by being dedicated to a game.  If you know sports at all, you know exactly what it takes to simply play a game. One of the major qualities that you need in order to get through a game is goals.  Sometimes this is the goal to win, while others it is simply to make it through the entire game.  Along with this, you will be influencing the children to persevere through the game, no matter how hard it is and to be determined to finish.  All of these qualities will help the children have a foundation for the rest of their life in whatever they do.

A coach’s responsibility does not end here.  More than teaching the children how to play the game, as well as giving them the support to get through the game, are certain things that children and youth may need to hear while they are playing.  It is up to the coach to make sure that everyone who is playing the game understands what it means to get through a game, work as a team, and do so to the best of their ability.  This will allow the children to understand what it means to finish their work in excellence.  This will especially be seen if the children win the game and see the outcome of their hard work.  Read More

TEACHING A CHILD TO WALK.

Posted by on Thursday May 20, 2010 Under Childhood Education, Parenting

Exercise is essentially important to the health of the infant. Its first exercise, of course, will be in the nurse’s arms. After a month or two, when it begins to sleep less during the day, it will delight to roll and kick about on the sofa: it will thus use its limbs freely; and this, with carrying out into the open air, is all the exercise it requires at this period. By and by, however, the child will make its first attempts to walk. Now it is important that none of the many plans which have been devised to teach a child to walk, should be adopted the go-cart, leading-strings, etc.; their tendency is mischievous; and flatness of the chest, confined lungs, distorted spine, and deformed legs, are so many evils which often originate in such practices. This is explained by the fact of the bones in infancy being comparatively soft and pliable, and if prematurely subjected by these contrivances to carry the weight of the body, they yield just like an elastic stick bending under a weight, and as a natural consequence become curved and distorted.

It is highly necessary that the young and experienced mother should recollect this fact, for the early efforts of the little one to walk are naturally viewed by her with so much delight, that she will be apt to encourage and prolong its attempts, without any thought of the mischief which they may occasion; thus many a parent has had to mourn over the deformity which she has herself created.

A preschool child takes his or her signals from people around them, and most of the times that is mom and dad.   In almost every situation, the child watches you to see if this is a good time to laugh, to cry, to pray, to be serious or to be afraid.  Just watch your little one when you are out in an unfamiliar situation.  Her little eyes will be glued to you and when you react a certain way, she will immediately react that way too.

So the influence you have on your child’s attitude about her first year at school will be driven to a very large extent by your attitude.  If you are nervous or anxious about this big step, your child will go into the first days in kindergarten tense and serious too.  Of course, you know the importance of shaping your child’s attitude toward school.  You want them to take school seriously.  In a strange way, in order to get your child interested in school, especially in this important first year, you have to lift the pressure and speak of them about kindergarten in their own.

And the orientation of any child in the months leading up to kindergarten can be sized up in one word – fun.  We often underplay the importance of fun and even scoff at how much value a child places on fun even in going to school.  “Fun” is a code word for a child.  It means more than just a child’s desire to play in a frivolous way.  In other contexts, “fun” means the child wants to be engaged, challenged, become part of a process, loved, feel safe and feel joy about what he or she is doing.  So when a child complains that something “isn’t fun”, it might just mean that the activity is frightening or fails to connect to them on their own terms.

When Your Child Hates School

Posted by on Friday Sep 11, 2009 Under Childhood Education, Parenting

School can be impossible to deal with when your child hates to be there.  It can be a struggle every day to get your child off to school.  How do you deal with a problem like that?
You first need to find out the reason why your child is dreading school so much.  The problem might be something that is easily solved.  If there is another child at school who is causing problems for your son or daughter, you can talk to the teacher or principle to try to resolve it.  Moving your child’s desk away from the other child might alleviate the problem, or even switching teachers.  You, as a parent, have to decide if a change in your child’s attitude could help or if something else is needed.
If your child doesn’t have any friends at school it can be really difficult to go to school every day.  When your children are in elementary school you can be an influence on your children and arrange a play time for your children – inviting other kids over.      Becoming involved in their school day allows you to help volunteer and also see what is happening in the classroom.  This perspective could help you find the problem that your child is having and suggest some solutions to try.  If possible, volunteer your time to help the teacher.
If your child is struggling with a particular subject you can give them the help they need.  Whatever the cause is for their problem in school, find a way to help them to resolve it.  Turn school time into a positive experience so that they will enjoy going to school.  Children learn so much better when they enjoy what they are doing.

Taking Control of Moral Education

Posted by on Monday Jun 15, 2009 Under Childhood Education, Parenting

There are  a lot of reasons that people take out their children from public school and move to private schools.  For one thing, the contract you have with a private school is in every way different than your relationship with public school. Because you pick your private school, the schools in your area are in competition for your “business”.  That means they work for you and they are responsible to live up to their promises to you when you pay them to give your child an education.

This phase of the process, when you are interviewing various private schools is when you have the chance to stipulate exactly what part of the education of your child you are prepared to hand over to the school and what parts you do not want them fooling around with.  For most parents, we are looking to send the child to school go learn about history, english, science, math, foreign language art, composition and other academic subjects that they need to conquer to be a success in college and eventually in life.

Unfortunately public schools also take it upon themselves to educate children in what might be considered moral, ethical or even religious areas of life.  And for many parents, this is meddling and imposing values on their children that the school has no right to impose and that is outside their authorization to do so.  No other subject better illustrates this principle than sex education.  Read More
