Do you have a child who is a challenge in the classroom or homeschool: the child does not choose work activities; or does not want to come to school or stay in the homeschool area?
Here is what you do: find out what the child absolutely LOVES. Trucks? Cats? Worms? Barney? Elmo? Art? The color red? What ever it is, make activities that include them! Matching cats, sorting colors, scrubbing a truck, dressing Elmo... activities the child cannot resist!
This is one of the greatest lessons you can learn! And you are learning from a young child!
So find out what the child loves! And call them "games" if that helps (instead of work).
It is the children who become our teachers, and the best ones are the most challenging!
