Give Kids Time to Sit & Think
Successful parents encourage their children to spend time thinking!
That’s right – no cell phones, no tablets, no gaming systems, no idle TV watching.
Those who engage in successful parenting know the importance (more like the urgency) of giving children time and space to just sit and think without interruption or interjection from outside voices.
Carving out time and encouraging your child to go into periods of deep thinking has several benefits.
Here is a very short list, as the possibilities are endless:
1. Children have the opportunity to think creatively when they can just let their minds wander without restriction.
2. Children are able to relax and decompress from their day. They have this time to think through situations that may have occurred earlier.
3. Children have the space and time to develop solutions to any problems they may be facing, and can think through the plausibility of their ideas.
4. Children have the space to think introspectively and work through areas of self-improvement
5. Children can plan their future goals and think through the advantages and disadvantages of their strengths, challenges, and obstacles.
