WORKBOOKS - Writing in workbook pages, as opposed to typing on a computer, can help kids to focus and to learn. Writing by hand fires up specific areas of a child's brain, improving a child's ability to not only remember what he or she learns but to think of new ideas. When kids complete the workbook, fill out the Congrats! certificate to reward a job well done. Hang it on the wall or fridge to display their achievement with pride.
