Having fun with kids isn’t as formidable a challenge as it seems. Children, by nature, are curious, inquisitive, eager to learn new things. Fun activities should involve not just play,but also the chance to learn freely and joyfully something different each day. Here are 10 things Joy Kids Universe suggests.

  • Visit the library – It’s the opposite of a playground atmosphere. Teach the child about books, reading, and how the library system works.
  • Bake a cake – Or cook a special dish. You’ll give the child an important skill, and introduce him to different tastes.
  • Go to a museum – Here’s your chance to ease the child into the world of art and artifacts. Explain about peoples, places and cultures.
  • Take a trip to a zoo or pet shop – Children love animals. Use the time to talk about responsible pet care.

  • Make something together while learning along the way. Whether it’s a snowman, a Lego figure, blanket fort, or a bird house.
  • Plant a tree – Make it your child’s special plant and give your child the responsibility to look after it.
  • Watch a play – If there’s a special theater performance, that’s even better. Tell the child what the play is all about before watching it.
  • Do community work – Pick up litter at the park, visit a home for the aged or an orphanage, help at a soup kitchen. Show your child the value of social responsibility.
  • Open a bank account – Teach your child about money, how banks work, and how important it is to save.
  • Go on a camping trip – Pick a spot where you’ll just not have fun but also learn important survival skills.

Always remember to imagine brightly to create joyful feelings every day.  Joy is the most powerful force in the Universe!

The Fruit and The Tree

The Fruit and The Tree

There’s an old saying that goes: “The fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree”. We at Joy Kids Universe want your children to grow up with a pleasant personality. We believe it all starts with you showing them how it’s done.  Here are some great tips on how you can help children demonstrate pleasant behavior.  Want more tips?  Hop on board the Joy Kids Express.

  1. Set the rules. It’s important that children know, as early as possible, what’s acceptable and non-acceptable behavior. They must know, and feel, what you – and others – expect from them and vice versa.
  2. Teach and coach. Although basic good behavior is the same everywhere, there are variations in what’s acceptable and what’s not, especially among different cultures. It’s your job to teach your children, first of all, the basics, and then the differences.
  3. Walk the Talk. A pleasant family environment is the best way to teach pleasant behavior to your children. After all, you can hardly grow fragrant roses in a garden full of weeds. Nothing beats teaching pleasant behavior by showing pleasant behavior as part of your daily life. Even when you’re under stress.  Our weekly Joy Kids Express can help!
  4. It’s a work in process. Don’t forget that your child is still in the process of learning what is acceptable and pleasant behavior. Be patient, use discipline intelligently; encourage, support, and reward your child in the process.

The right mix of love, guidance and techniques will go a long way to make your child develop pleasant behavior.
