Here are 5 fun ways for your family to start something new in 2020.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Eat a Home-Cooked Meal Together at Least Once a Day.<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Research shows that children who eat one home-cooked meal a day with their families do better socially, academically, and physically.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Talk at the Table \u2014Highs &amp; Lows.<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When you\u2019re at the table eating, have each family member share their high and low for the day. They must tell why they chose each one. Ask question after each person shares.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Turn Off the Screens. Turn On the Fun!<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Science proves screen time diminishes preschoolers\u2019 attention spans making them more anxious and less able to concentrate. Because young minds are made to absorb everything, resist the temptation to use a screen to keep your child occupied. Instead, go \u201cold school.\u201d Color with crayons, play an age-appropriate board game, listen to music, go outside, or play family hide and seek.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Move It! Move It!<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The family that exercises together is happier and healthier. Get out on your bikes and trikes. Pedal around the block. Play freeze tag in the front yard. Organize a neighborhood game of kickball. Anything that gets your family\u2019s heart rate up will improve your health. And your kids will learn to love moving by doing it with you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Read Together As a Family.<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Preschoolers whose loved ones read books to them have much bigger vocabularies than children whose families do not read to them. The more words a child learns, the greater their ability to read and write well in the future. Start reading stories together. You\u2019ll love all the places you\u2019ll go with your kids in their book adventures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you enjoyed this blog and want to read more, click below for our blog from last month!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.com\/sienna-plantation\/2019\/10\/30\/practicing-patience-with-your-preschooler\/\">Practicing Patience with Your Preschooler<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Want to learn more about<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.com\/sienna-plantation\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Kids \u2018R\u2019 Kids Learning Academy of Sienna Plantation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> located in Missouri City, Texas?
