Long description
Parents and caregivers who struggle to cope with the demands of modern day living and need practical, sensible advice to raise happy, well-adjusted and independent children will find this title invaluable. The manual that never came with your child covers: an appropriate environment for the child to do his or her homework; the setting up of routines; how to organise weekly and monthly planners; study methods; an effective homework diary; games and activities to improve visual and auditory perceptual skills, as well as fine and gross motor skills; food that will optimise brain power; discipline. Written in laymen's terms, the text is accompanied by full-colour cartoons throughout, which lightens the approach to issues that are often regarded as nightmares by despairing parents. Regular Handy Hints boxes summarise the preceding concepts in a nutshell.
