Quick Tips for Parents
Make your 10-minute sessions even more impactful with these simple ideas:
- Praise the Process: Celebrate their effort and thinking! "I love how you worked that out!" is more powerful for building resilience than just checking the answer.
- Use the Real World: Find fun, quick moments to talk about "taking away." "There were five crackers on your plate. Now that you've eaten two, how many are left?"
- Make it Physical: Use toys like blocks or crayons. Start with a group, ask them to take some away, and count what remains.
- Let Them Be the Guide: Every child learns at their own pace. Let them play a game until they feel confident. The goal is building a love for learning, not speed.
