The Three Languages of Learning

Children are curious by nature. Most have an insatiable desire to learn, but there are also factors that may stunt their curiosity or put them off learning. The three languages of learning are how we can help our children explore their natural curiosity. The first is letting them be. We learn best when we are in the mood to learn. When a child is in the mood to explore, they will be likely be more interested in new things and ideas. The second language is interaction. When we talk to our kids, we should be learning too. We can use what they say as a jumping off spot to explore new ideas and topics. The third language is imitation. When we are learning new tasks, we can observe how others do them. This will help us understand how we can replicate those tasks.

Why Stories Are Important to Learn From

Studying stories and legend can be a great way to introduce your child to a wide range of topics. From history to science, these stories have it all and can be a great resource for conversations with your child. Reading stories can also be a great way to introduce your child to new vocabulary words that they might hear frequently in their daily life. Stories can be read at all levels of reading ability, from beginning to advanced reading levels. They can also be read aloud to younger children, for older children to practice listening, and for teens to work on reading for themselves.
