Building Attention and Focus

🎥 Episode 2 – Building Focus & Attention
Does your child struggle to finish a task without getting distracted?
Focus is like a muscle — it grows stronger with practice.

Preschoolers: keep activities short and interactive (puzzles, matching games, storytime).
Primary kids: break homework into smaller chunks with quick breaks in between.
Teens: create distraction-free study zones and plan realistic work sessions.

And remember — kids model what they see. Put your phone away during shared activities to show them what focused attention looks like.
Little by little, their attention span grows — and so does their capacity to learn.
