Yay!
It
is that time of the year and you’re thinking of how to engage your children for
the long vacation. You know the area they’re struggling with in school and you
hope to use the long hols to help them master the area so they can ace it next
term. This Summer Guide 2021 is crafted to help you overcome this challenge or
others easily.
Set goals.
Now,
the first thing to figure out is what you want to achieve with the six weeks of
the holidays. Like in the already cited example, it could be that academic
subject or subjects you want to help your kid conquer. The common subjects that
kids struggle with are Maths, English, Computer and Languages. For other
parents it could be their children’s social skills that need some fine tuning, after
all all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, right? So you’re looking to
help your academic stars learn how to make friends, stop keeping to themselves
or generally get along fine with their age mates. It is also a great time to
help kids to be hands-on or learn some handiwork like bead-making, coding,
photography, taekwondo, cooking or simple ways to take care of themselves by
keeping their space clean or doing their own laundry. You may even want a
combination of any or all of the above.
Know your options.
Once
you have pinned down what you and your child would like to achieve during the
coming six weeks, next step is to surf through the ideas, programmes and events
out there to find the right fit. Usually, most schools close for a week or two
then commence the regular one month summer lesson. So visiting that school
you’ve been eyeing for your kids is a brilliant idea as you can test them out
by grading how well they handle their Summer School children. When it comes to
Summer School in Abuja, there is also the fast becoming normal option of
bi-weekly or weekly or daily programmes in schools with more international
slant or exposure. One week can be used for hand crafts like sewing, another
week for computer coding lessons yet another week for learning dances or
gymnastics and games. The best part is, the payment is daily, weekly or
bi-weekly as well. So parents can choose and pay for only the week with
activities that suit their child’s needs. This is also a fantastic way to give
your child the chance to be in a more conducive learning environment that you
may otherwise not be able to afford. So you wil do well to check out the Summer
School menu of several schools.
If
you want your child to take a break from the whole school environment while
continuing to learn, home lessons would be great as long as a fairly firm
outine is in place to minimise distractions and over eating. Lesson teachers
for both traditional school subjects and extra-curricular lessons abound during
the holidays. You just need to know who to call or where to find them.
Now
that you’ve figured out the one or two things you must achieve with your kids
this season or at least have a clearer view, here are the options to pick from
that are available near you:
Check these out.
1.
LYNDEM Games
Café
If you want to make learning
fun for your children, this is the perfect form of play for your
growing and highly impressionable children during the holidays.. At the Lyndem Games Café, the concept of Edutainment is employed. This means using entertainment to teach kids, aged between
2 – 10 years. It is a well proven concept because when kids are being
entertained, they listen and keep listening.
Using educational toys like alphabet puzzles, maths mat
and exergaming (games that exercise the body) Lyndem is making each
child a super-performer in every class year after year.
