As a Clever Parent, you know how important it is to let kids be kids. Playtime is learning time. You don’t want to be that parent who is endlessly throwing flashcards in your child’s face without ever letting him see the light of day. (Every child should be fluent in Russian at two, right?) But, by the same token, wouldn’t it be nice to have a resource that could help you know that your child is on track with his development and age? Your answer… True Learning.
The brainchild of Jinhee Kim, True Learning offers more than 3,000 printable exercises in 6 different subject areas and 4 progress levels. Parents go online and print exercises from topics ranging from math, literacy and thinking to motor skills, art and world and then spend 15 minutes a day going through a few activities of their choosing. Child development experts agree that 15 minutes is the ideal amount of time that young children should spend in an educational setting each day so the exercises were created to be quick and fun activities designed to be shared with your child for that length of time.
One of the many things we find clever about True Learning? The activities are not online. The site is not a slick, animated, “let me entertain your child for 15 minutes while you go and do something else” thing to do. Instead, you print the activities, step away from the computer and spend fun, quality learning time with your little one.
See how much we love True Learning on a recent Clever Parents vidcast.
