4 tips to improve children's concentration

Everything starts from daily life and changes the little details of life.

1. Set goals

Assist your children to recognize their tasks and tasks, and then set clear and easy-to-reach goals; if there are several things that need to be dealt with at the same time, help them arrange the order of tasks and focus on one thing at a time.

2. Living environment

Interference from the external environment is one of the major factors that affect concentration. When children are dealing with their immediate goals, eliminate all interference factors including TVs, smartphones, game consoles, etc., so that they can concentrate.

3. Regular work and rest

Studies have pointed out that if young children go to bed later than 11 o'clock in the evening, or have irregular work and rest, the chance of having concentration problems at the age of 8 is 1.62 times higher.

4. Leisure and entertainment

Reduce the time spent on daily watching TV or using smart electronic products, because the screens of TV programs change rapidly, which will burden children and young people's concentration, and will damage their concentration and ability to absorb information in the long run.

Parents can play some games to train concentration with their children, such as "information", board games, puzzles, etc. At the same time, more outdoor activities and exercises are required. Aerobic fitness exercises such as running, swimming, hiking, etc. can also promote brain development , Physical fitness can improve concentration, and can increase the time to get along and communicate, and enhance parent-child relationship.
