9.The Role of Routine
You can give your child more structure at home if you lay out clear routines. Post a daily schedule that reminds them of what they are supposed to do throughout the day. This helps them stay on task. It should include specific times to wake up, eat, play, do homework and chores, and go to bed.
10.Your Child’s Diet
Studies on diets have mixed results, but some experts believe food that’s good for the brain could be helpful. Things that are high in protein, like eggs, meat, beans, and nuts, may help your child concentrate better. You may also want to replace simple carbs, like candy and white bread, with complex ones, like pears and whole-grain bread. Talk to your pediatrician before making any big changes in what your child eats.
