Eat fish

Research shows that a diet rich in omega-3s can improve the cognitive performance of children both in and out of school. What is our main source of omega-3? Fish! Here you need to add it to your diet and your child. The most useful representatives of the aquatic environment are tuna, trout, sardines, mackerel and herring. Ideally, they should be on the menu two to three times a week. So that your daughters and sons are interested in such an adult product, serve it creatively, tell a fairy tale, decorate the dish brightly so that the child wants to try it.

Observe the mode

For the growth of children is a fundamental factor, sleep is vitally important for the development of the brain and mental health. In addition, the dream of the whole family depends on how the child sleeps. That's why it's so important to follow the schedule. The babies should go to bed and always get up at the same time. Think of special rituals for falling asleep and awakening. For example, at night read fairy tales or sing lullabies, and in the morning awake children fragrances of a delicious breakfast. A child at such an age when he can not tear himself away from gadgets? Be sure to make sure that all phones and tablets are turned off and the kid does not take them with him to bed. In a company with electronics, it will be more difficult for him to fall asleep.

Be on the street every day

Children must be on the move at least three hours a day. Shocking data suggest that most preschool children do not spend an active hour even an hour! Which, of course, affects their physical and mental health. Take in the habit in good weather to take the child out and play sports or at least just walk. How to be when it's cold and damp? To invent for the kid an active hobby. It can be swimming or visiting any other sports section. Another option for an interesting pastime is gardening. What kind of child does not like to get dirty from the heart? Give children the land and seeds of unpretentious garden crops, such as peas, parsley, dill, and they will happily mess with the paddles and buckets for hours! And when the kids see that the seeds planted by them have turned into real plants, they will double penetrate to the hobby and will not want to sit in four walls.
