What are you teaching your child right now?...

We have re-started on potty training for my 20 month old...and he now gives me signs when he is ready to go to the toilet. He is learning a few of the letters at school. I'm also teaching him to put on his own shoes. He is halfway there...so that's good enough for me. Fortunately for me, he is learning a lot of things from watching us and his older brother do things.

Hello aseretdd, At the moment, I don't really teach my son about anything serious in life such as religion, relationship and etc. He is still mumbling a lot though he can understand me better now. When he can handle himself better, maybe in another one or two years, I will start to teach him more about life. I want him to be knowledgeable about almost everything and at least, whenever others talk to him about something, he will understand it better.

HI aseretdd, [i]That's great and I'm sure in the long run I am sure when she will start Prep School, she already knows! I have no kids but I also admire some friends who are teaching their kids at a young age how to keep their toys, simple action songs even if they will bubble the words, it's fun really to listen![/i]

Today we did some shopping. My daughter went about saying hey, mom daddy look at this. And proceeded to take things off the shelves. So what we are currently teaching her is how not to be a little miss grabby hands. That is what my hubby calls it. Easier said than done when so many things catch her interest.

It is important for the parents to teach their children about their religion.My son undergoes religious teachings everyday.He is only 8 but knows quite a bit.

My children 3 and 6 know the Lords Prayer by heart, we recite it at night as part of their bedtime prayers! My 3 year old knows how to write her name now, she could spell out her name at 2 so could my older daughter. It is all in how you teach them. We used to sing a song to their names, so they learned how to spell them, we did the same for our address and telephone number. Kids are sponges and they learn more between birth and like 10 then they will for the rest of their lives! people dont realize we teach our kids every day, either good habits or bad habits. If we read with them from birth, they read nad write better earlier, if we talk to them not at them, they learn so much! Just keep working with her, kids thrive on the attention too

Right now my child is asleep so I am not teaching him anything. He is 2 so we are just starting to work on reading. I don't know if it is too early but he has a large vocabulary, knows the alphabet and recognizes all of the letters. We are doing all the reading and he just memorizes the pages I think because sometimes he repeats an entire page word for word. it isn't something we are forcing but he loves to sit and have us read and if he likes it we are going to keep doing it.

I have two toddlers ages 3 and 5 years old. for my five year old son I am teaching him simple additions, some digraphs.. he already knew the alphabet, know hot to write and read them, but still confused with b and. he also learning senses and living things. he also started comparing numbers and writing number words and familiarizing himself with ordinal numbers. I'm working out most on his comprehension. for my 3 year old, well he does not have much interest on studying, his interest is through coloring. I usually draw letters that he can recognize and asked him to color it, though he is now learning how to count. kids are easy learners but when they say they don't like to study you just can't force them.
