Age level(s) this material is appropriate for:
Preschool and Younger
Elementary School
Middle School
High School & Beyond

Describe the material:
Have you ever looked at your child and wondered how smart they really were? Have you ever made you children do extra homework or read extra books? If you answered yes, you might want to read this!

If you really want to make a difference in your kids life, try getting involved. Spend time with them. Sure, books and "learning" toys help, but more important is Parent and Child interaction. Take time to have an imaginary cup of tea. To play Tonka trucks. If your child seems upset, ask them if they feel like talking. The more interaction you have with your child can make him/her able to progress above todays society. Spark their interests. Show them new things. Say new words. Children are thriving to learn. They also thrive for attention. Imagine them getting both, from you.

Skill(s) that the material seeks to develop:
Creativity
Critical Thinking
Problem Solving
Research Skills
Other

If "Other", please describe the skill:
Interaction
Personal Behavior
Good Values
