Two Hands-on Activities to Help Kids Practice Solving Problems
Manage episode 363029465 series 2763438
Throughout your life growing up, have you ever come up against a problem you just couldn’t solve? We learn very valuable skills at school but we don’t learn every single skill needed for everyday life so in this episode, I teach you some hands-on ways to practice problem solving with your child.
The topics I cover in this episode are:
The 5 steps to problem solving
The benefits of learning and playing simultaneously
A newspaper and tape challenge - what is it?
The interesting side to different children groups doing the same exercise
My second strategy with play dough and toothpicks
Practicing smaller problems help with bigger problems in real life
Problem Solving Steps from Encourage Play

And remember, do not forget about yourself, take a few minutes for you and have a little fun!
