School activities and burnout

For millions of parents around the world, the day is not to end with the school. There are still pictures to be painted, songs to be sung and played. This all adds up to keeping children happy, safe and out of trouble. But parents have to walk away from board to send.

After school is not baby-sit:
After school activities thrive only if it is supported by sufficient parental involvement. What would a football game without parents encourage their little heroes from the sidelines?.

Research and choose:
Instead of convenience, that the decisive factor, ie things that interest your child. Once a program gets, the fine print and find out what you need to do.

Recreation:
Many children attend piano followed classes from ballet and press a little time for play dates in between just before they rush home in time for bed. This rigor is too much for a child. So, go slowly.

When to stop:
Often parents write their child in an activity to discover that he is not the miracle child, she thought he would be. This is the time to let go. Your child can not become the next wonder-kid. But let him cultivate an interest that he enjoys. Remember, happiness and fulfillment that matter.
