As a parent to an active toddler I am always in the hunt for activities to keep her busy and make her stay away from Gadgets like Ipad and televison.
Most of us are busy in our day to day life that we don’t have time to spend with our kids, which results in online gaming and watching toons on tv. There is not much unleashing of our kids creative mind.
Growing up in 80s was the most fun time I would say, we got play in the garden, spend time with our friends and parents. But now things have changed, Do you remember the rhymes that you learnt in your Kindergarten, I would say most of us would say yes. Age 2-8 years is the most important period of a childs phase. You should try ways to avoid our kids to become a gadget addicts. Even Doctors all over the world suggest that children who spend long hours in front of gadgets show signs of postural deformities and are more vulnerable to mental stree. So lets see what are the alternative options available to make them more gadget free and to be more physcially active.
So How does an Educational Subscription box for kids help?
– helps them to encourage a child’s interest.
– keeps kids engaged in activities rather than gadgets.
– which kids doesn’t love to get something in their mail.
– Awesome gift to a kid, which he receives every month, its like endless gift.
