Concentration is like a muscle that needs regular exercise to strengthen. Some kids are born “stronger” in this area than others, but all kids can learn strategies that help them to improve their ability to focus and sustain their attention. This is a very important skill for kids to gain as school demands that students pay attention for long stretches of time. This ability to concentrate and sustain attention on all kinds of tasks is extremely important because it helps kids learn and improve, which leads to self-confidence and positive self-confidence.
Here are some tips to help your kids build their concentration muscles:
# Exercise 1
Start by having your child breathe normally.
Now have them lie on their backs.
With their mouths closed, have them breathe in for three seconds.
Have them hold in the air for four seconds.
Then have them slowly blow all the air out until it’s all gone.
Repeat until the body feels relaxed.
# Exercise 2
Kids can be distracted by “internal stimuli,” like physical sensations or entertaining memories. While a child’s imagination is a wonderful thing, we also want them to be able to clear away distractions and build the ability to concentrate. So the next exercise is to make kids observe things at the moment. To achieve this, make them do a few yoga postures or make them observe a variety of objects in the room for a few seconds.
