Mom’s and Dad’s

Exam time is here again! Its a challenge to help everyone stay cool. Here are four Ss that can help moms and dads manage the exam season with little fuss to encourage effective learning:

• Stock up necessities like stationery, paper and notebooks, even if your child doesnt ask for them.

• Support and applaud every effort of your child. Reward her appropriately with words of praise, small treats and hugs. Make the effort.

• Stick around. Be there to remind your child to study, take a break or have a snack. Thats one way to make sure she doesnt get stressed out.

• Dont compare. Every child is unique. Help your child improve in weak areas and put in her best.
