Tip 4 - Exercise


Any form of exercise is great.  Children have been sitting in classrooms all day.  They need to unwind just like we do.  Let them play with their pet, or have a run in the park, ride their bikes.  As we move the oxygen and blood carrying food nutrients are moved to the muscles and the brain.  This effectively fuels the senses allowing them to think both easier and more clearly.  If my boys are restless and mucking around, I will ask them to take a little break, maybe help mummy with a job, and then go back to the table to finish off their task.  I've found they appear more focused and just get it done.  Always a good thing!

I'm always happy to receive other good ideas via a comment. :)
