interest or passion in something, use<br />

it. Once your child shows a spark of<br />

excitement and curiosity, help them<br />

pursue more resources or information<br />

about it. There is an abundance<br />

of digital resources, but don’t forget<br />

about good, old-fashioned, handson<br />

experiences, too.<br />

Second, let your child run after the<br />

questions. Let them do the heavy lifting<br />

to find the answers. When they<br />

ask a question, facilitate them in finding<br />

the answer. Keep a notebook,<br />

whiteboard or digital list of all the<br />

questions they have asked and answers<br />

they have found.<br />

Next, give choices. Let your child<br />

steer the way for a family outing or<br />

experience. Giving them the freedom<br />

and ownership will pave the<br />

way for higher engagement. They<br />

chose it, so they own it!<br />

Finally, make the time. It seems<br />

cliché, but you can never overestimate<br />

setting aside time for<br />

exploration. Even a short walk<br />

around the neighborhood can<br />

open the door to a whole new<br />

world.<br />
