Children are born with a strong urge to explore their surroundings. Encourage them to look at their world closely and marvel at the wonder of it all. Be on the lookout for ”what if?” moments in your day-to-day life, whether it be while they’re playing in the mud or helping you tend to a worm farm in your kitchen.
Spotted an ant highway on your kitchen floor? Play ”What if?”, and see what the ants do if you put an obstacle in their path, or try and lure them with different types of crumbs to see what type of food they prefer.
SLOW DOWN AND SEE
Remember that your child’s world is closer to the ground than yours. Take some time to consider this perspective, and you could rediscover a sense of wonder in what you see as well. Also keep in mind that a child’s world moves at a slower pace.
Make sure to follow his lead when you’re out and about. When he stops to study something, stop with him and give him enough time to contemplate the insect or plant that caught his eye, without rushing to the next thing. For example, if you’re walking to the park, forget about the destination and take the journey there completely at his pace.
Decide beforehand not to become impatient if he dawdles. Children learn through experience and not by being told about things.
