Notice what draws their attention and create more experiences like that. If your child is interested in space, take them stargazing and talk about constellations. If they enjoy flowers, take them to a garden and name the flowers. Use their interests to teach them more about what they enjoy in a fun environment. Your child will likely enjoy learning all about their interests and gaining more knowledge. If they love the ocean, bring them to the ocean and let them explore some tide pools. If this isn’t an option, find some sand for your child to play with at a local playground. To see sea animals, take them to an aquarium. Kids love to learn experientially. Places like a children’s museum or the zoo will captivate them while helping them learn new things.

If your child loves dinosaurs, get a membership to the natural history museum. If they love fish, get a membership to the aquarium. If you have a young child, get a membership to a children’s museum. Let them ask museum workers questions about things they’re interested in. If your child shows a strong preference for something, find a way for them to get more involved. For example, if your child loves tumbling, look into gymnastics classes. If your child is interested in acting, see if there’s a class or club for young actors. Find ways to expand on their interests to build their skills and passions. If your child enjoys art or writing, encourage them to do these activities both at home and in classes.
