Add natural lighting

Where possible, pick a spot in your house with access to natural light. This type of environment boosts wellbeing, performance, and creativity. The environment will also be more conducive for learning.

Add more colors

Colors have an impact on the mind of the average human. Kids are different but different colors can motivate and inspire them.

Younger kids thrive in stimulating, bright colors. Some good examples are green, orange and yellow. Green produces a calming effect. It can also help aid concentration.

Have comfortable and sturdy seating

Even as adults, it can be painful to sit in a bad chair for extended periods. The same applies to kids. Ensure that the chairs in the study room are comfortable. They should also provide sufficient support for the child’s back.

Also, add a few seating options, which may include beanbags, chairs, or reading nooks. This gives your child the freedom to move around the room as they explore and play.

Provide activities for the child

Prepare puzzles, art, games and more that can keep the child engaged in the space.

Make It Relatable

Does your child have a favorite fictional character or favorite show? Make homework speak to their level by bringing in fictional characters to serve as the people in the question. For example, if your first grader is struggling with adding 5 and 3, you could tell them that Mickey Mouse has five apples and picks three more apples, and ask how many Mickey now has. When kids feel a connection to what they’re learning, they’re more likely to enjoy learning.

Try Alternate Strategies

Not everyone learns the same way. If the way that’s being taught isn’t speaking to your child, try presenting the material in a different way. You could try acting out a history question and letting your child place themselves in the shoes of a historical figure. Or in science, if the subject can be replicated, try a controlled experiment. Basically, if the obvious solution doesn’t work, try a creative (and safe) solution.

Work Together

Your child is the one learning and doing the work, but you can make them feel like you’re working on the problem as a team. Without doing the work for them, you can nudge your child toward the right answer by asking the right questions or helping explain why something is the way it is. It will go a long way toward convincing your child that you’re in this together.
