Tips!

Here are some Tips on Fostering LIFT's enrichment philosophy at home!

* Help your kids (at any age) to develop there scientific minds by asking open-ended questions, encouraging curiosity, and promoting imagination!

* Encourage lots of imaginative play- with "basic" toys and supplies. This has the mega benefits of developing your child's mind and abilities rather than have a toy or a game that does the creativity, thought, and work of play itself! This also means lots of outside time as well!

* Read - read - read - read!!!


* Probably the very best thing you could do to increase their attention span and develop their minds for creativity, thought, and learning (in addition to tons of reading)- is to limit any electronic device in their lives as much as possible. The less electronic media - the greater the learning, creativity, imagination, and attention span.
