Online: about 10 minutes of games a day. Offline: these plays this week.
☐ Chunk it down
- Ask your child to break tonight's work into three to five small steps.
- Tick each step off on paper as it's done.
- Take a two-minute stretch between chunks.
Together: Break a family job (making dinner, packing for a trip) into steps and tick them off together.
☐ Four-count breathing
- Practise together: breathe in for 4, hold for 4, out for 4, hold for 4.
- Do three rounds before homework or a test.
- Let your child lead it once this week.
Together: Draw a square and trace it with a finger while breathing round it together.
☐ An outdoor hour each weekend
- Choose a weekend slot for an hour outside.
- Rotate who picks the place: park, garden, field.
- Leave devices in a bag for that hour.
Together: Build a stick-and-stone obstacle course in the park and time each other.
