Parents of Preschoolers  Discussion Forum

My son aged 3.7 is in Nursery. He has extremely poor concentration and gets distracted very easily. His attention span is very limited when a story is read out to him or when asked to do any activity like colouring, block building. Can somebody suggest ways of improving his concentration.

first of all u find where his interest lies. then it will be quite easy 4 u 2 make him sit. like when u read a story read it as if he is actually is there like making sound for animals or crying or sounding sad etc.
you can also play with him and that way u can make him sit n learn e.g. if he likes to draw sit with him. initially let him draw watever he wants and then slowly good now lets see if u can make a house or a dog. slowly he will start sitiing with u. it depends only on u 2 take efforts as schools have many kids n they can't spend that much time plus u know u r kid better than anybody else.

the only thing is u shd have patience. and be a little more creative or experimental while dealing with him like try n error.

BY THE WAY LET ME KNOW IF HE IMPROVES
