Ritu Shah, a mother of six-year-old says, "My son Ayush refuses to sit in one place for more than ten minutes. No matter what I do to keep him involved, he sits for 10 minutes or so. He loses interest eventually and starts running around. He is very restless and gets distracted easily."

Do not worry, it is perfectly normal for kids to get bored easily. All you need to pin your little one down is by introducing learning without his knowledge.

Here are a few pointers.

Be Practical

Teach your children in a more practical and realistic way. It will be easier for her to apply herself. For example, if you are teaching her subtraction, take six bowls and keep three aside. When he  and explain your kid about the subtraction process.

Once Upon a Time…

Younger kids love stories. So teach subjects like history as if it were a story. You could also role play a particular situation. This will turn a dry subject into an interesting one.

Let's Play!

Bhanu Parameswaran, a primary school teacher says, "If your kid refuses to sit, introduce studies by way of play."

Teach science in a play way method. For instance, use a doll to teach her the different parts of the body. You can help your kid with her spellings by asking her to read different sign boards and easy billboards when you go out.

Let the Music Play

Does your child remember the song, "Kajra Re Kajra Re" from Bunty Aur Babli much better than his lessons?

Children love to learn things if the lessons are taught in a musical way. So teach him by way of rhymes or songs wherever possible.

The Grand Prize

The reward method is apt to tackle kids below ten years of age. But reward does not mean materialistic gifts.

For instance, you could cook his favourite food for studying or finishing his homework on time.
