Question

How can i get my 5 years old boy be interest in studying?

Answer 1

maybe with some kid's video of how to learn thing with someone wearing a fun costume that make kids happy.Or maybe ask someone that ur son's close with to teach him, that might work ^^

Answer 2

There isn't a set way to get a kid's attention unless you use their two best friends: tv, and toys.

Try videos and educational DVDs. Try learning toys like LeapFrog.

The chances of him being interested in studying is slim to none, mainly because that in kindergarton, you learn numbers, the alphabet, and other easy things, like to count. This grade is basically about making friends and learning about their new environment.

Answer 3

Make it FUN!!!, whatever the topic area is-- make a guessing game of it, a counting game of it, a sorting game, bigger-than-littler-than, in cleanup-how fast can you go--(get a clock-timer form the dollar store & challenge him to beat the time); both my kids LOVED the animal guessing game where you start "I am an animal/reptile/bird/ mammal, etc. & I live in the______ fill in the blank with zoo/forest/farm/ sea, etc. and then continue naming characteristics of the animal until they can guess it - I have 4 legs, long tail, climb trees, eat meat or plants, etc... this is great as it can become more difficult as the child ages and it helps to develop critical thinking skills.  It can also be done with other topics besides animals.  We used to do this at home or in the car & it kept them occupied for ages & ages.... my kids are grown now (in early 20's), but last year as we came together for the holidays, they both said, 'hey-remember that animal game we used to play? Let's play it now" so we did -we had lots of fun & laughs & good memories (my son liked this game the best & I used to try to think of the hardest/most unusual animals to try to stump him-- it led him to take an interest & study more & to watch nature shows rather than just cartoons that have very little educational/brain-building value.

Have fun!

Answer 4

my 5 yr old girl learns faster thru watching learning stuff on tv. so you might want to try to buy those dvd or vcd that aid children to learn either english reading, maths, science, etc.

and dont worry much children eventually learn.

Answer 5

make it fun if you can turn it into a game using thim=ngs around the house

Answer 6

I am still going through this with my 11yr old.

When he was younger I would use props, like candy,chips to do his homework.

As he got older, I pretended that I didn't know how to do something, like math, and asked him to explain it to me.

Till this day, I think my son thinks he has a dumb mother, but it does work.

Sometimes I will reward him with a model car that he can build if he does well with tests.

Answer 7

He is five!!!!!!  What does he have to study at such a young age?  Let him be a kid.  He has lots of studying ahead of him.

Answer 8

Not interested, means he has no motivation. Firstly I would again say make it fun, learning through play is the best method at this age. If it is a tedious homework task after he has been at school all day use a motivator. In other words give him  a reason why he should complete the task e.g. homework then video. Edible treats usually are the best motivator! Our motivation for working all week is our salary....would we work without this motivation?

Answer 9

There is a new program out right now for children age 1-8 years old. The program is called "Noodle Net" Its a software package that works on your computer and uses games for teaching letters, numbers etc. by their age group. I belong to the website "Vocalpoint" (which is a site for mothers) they are right now offering a 30-day trial if you are a member. They will mail you the CD if you request it. Their website is at

http://www.vocalpoint.com. You must sign up as a member and agree to take a survey on various subjects once a week. They also have a forum where you can talk to other mothers about what ever you want. Since I joined a year ago I have gotten something free every month. One month I received a free Venus razor plus many other free items. For me it has been rewarding with all the goodies I have received plus the software for Noodle Net sounds like it would be a way to get your son interested in learning before he starts kindergarten!

Answer 10

try incorporating playing with studying... your youngster needs to be motivated in order to study.. by means of doing some exercises while playing all at the same time, instead of just sitting around. For example, in math instead of the usual paper and pencil exercises why dont you do a play wherein in his every  correct answer he get to have one step ahead, racing to his fav chocolate or cake or anything that he likes so much. but definitely not his toy bec i bet he will not listen to you :-)... kids love to play.. sometimes we parents just needs to feel what our kids feel.. so if we play with them.. studying and learning will not be so dull or boring or just an obligation to do not only for them but for us too.. hope i contributed something :-)
