Encouraging kids that education is important

first i do not know how old is your son,and if he is so young,i think what you said to him is not useful as he did not know what is the meaning of you!IF he is in his primary scholl,i think you shoule find an another way to tell him the importance of education,as you only said to him that it is helpful for his future,he can not know,so wish every thing will be ok,good luck!

same with my son..whenever i asked him to do his homeworks, he keeps on saying that he's tired..but when someone from outside calls him to play, he doesnt feel tired...maybe because they're young to understand that education is important..soon they'll understand..

One motivations I think that I had told my kids to go to school is for them to meet many other friends. the more friends you have, the happier are you. At first its not about the learning, its about how my kids mingled with other kids and making friends along the way. That way, they make sure to get up early to prepare for school. After they make school part of their daily life, little by little, we had introduced how important education is for their future.

It is normal for the kiddos to be playful, you can not force them to study by pressuring them. The best thing is to incorporate the play therapy with the target education needed for the child. In some instances, you can try reward system, but the dilemma the child will get used to it. Try to research about dealing with the toddlers.

Show him the children in the streets begging for alms. Tell him he's fortunate to be in school unlike those kids. One thing that encourages kids to study is "bargain". Tell him you will give him a prize if he did well in school. Rewarding is different from bribing. Kids are kids. They love rewards, they want recognition. If you make a deal with him, he will consider it a game--in which he must win and so have a prize. We can't let kids think the way we see things. It all takes time and age. Let him feel you're playing a game with him. And most important of all, be there at his side when he feels down.

I think that is pretty common with all us parents. What I do is get involved in what they are studying and ask questions (even if you know the answerts). Stay interested in what they are learning and you will help nurture their interest as well. There were many times I was too tired to do this but when I did I noticed a difference in their study habits.

As kids are playful they will be let to learn while playing. Parents and school must have to know about how to educate the kids. Kids will be instructed to play games through which kids will learn. But the kids wont be able to know that they are learning. They will be able to know that they are just playing. Actually kids are to young to learn things like the importance of education.
