Homework in progress - 1

So, you have made sure your child digs into those books for certain hours every day. But how much of it is he/she learning? Here are some ways to make homework productive.

As much as it is a part and parcel of children's lives, homework is also a crucial part of the parents' routine. A For it is the parents, who are more worried about it being useful to the child's development.

It can however be viewed in two ways: either as a useful tool, or a waste of time. No matter how fantastic an idea homework is, the benefits will only be realized if information is properly digested by the child and the required knowledge and practice gained. While much has been written and spoken about how to alter your and your child's schedule to fit in with the homework, few parents realize how much the child is gaining through the daily activity.

There are several things you can do as a parent, to make homework useful (or at least preventing a waste of time). Here are many ways to make sure there is some growth in your child's grey matter through homework. Since you will never know how much attention he/she pays in class! Just read out all the important steps one-by-one in the next articles.

Calcium Bank for your child

Whether you work at your desk or dance the night away, it is calcium that gives your body its basic shape and structure. About 99% of the calcium in your body is found in your bones and teeth. The rest is found in the blood where it performs important tasks such as controlling heart rhythm, muscle contractions, making hormones that contribute to energy production, making enzymes that control digestion, etc. If your daily diet is low in calcium then the bones give up their calcium to keep your blood levels normal. If this happens day after day, bones can become brittle and weak a can be broken easily. Excessive intake of non-vegetarian food, lack of exercise, smoking acidity, excessive coffee intake, and menopause are some of other reasons where the bones lose their calcium stores.

It is important to know that the bones are alive and are constantly changing in their composition. They can be compared to a wall made of calcium bricks. Every day some calcium leaves the bones and is replaced by new supplies arriving from fresh green vegetables or from a glass of milk.

Throughout childhood bones get longer and stronger and right up to the age of 25 the calcium arriving is greater than the calcium leaving and hence the bones get stronger and denser. They reach maximum density and stabilize during early adulthood that is between the age of 25 to 35 the bones are holding on to their strength and density whereby the calcium arriving and leaving the body is equal. After 35 years of age, they begin to lose their strength and the aging process begins.

At this stage the calcium leaving is greater than the calcium arriving. If you don’t watch your diet and the calcium depletes then the bones get weaker and progressively degenerate, which gives rise to osteoporosis the ‘old bones’ disease and spontaneously fracture even under mild stress.

With this changing calcium scenario your need for calcium also changes. Increasing during time of growth, then stabilizing during adulthood and increasing again during old age.

Building maximum bone density during childhood is particularly important because dense bones create a calcium bank from which withdrawals can be made after the age of 35 and strong bones built during childhood can be your best defense against osteoporosis later.

Get more calcium into your child’s diet:

• Give your child a strawberry milk shake or a chocolate milk shake if he/she is fusing over drinking plain milk.

• Get him/her into the habit of eating curd every day. Apart from providing easily digestible calcium curd has immunity boosting properties. But what it is you are not a milk drinker!

• Cheese slices on whole grain bread or whole-wheat khakra serves as a tasty snack / Breakfast food.

• Green mung sprouts mixed with chopped green salad and dressed with grated cheese and curd can be eaten as a snack when the children come back from school.

• Soya bean is a rich source of protein and calcium. Soya biscuits (available in most leading stores) can be carried in Tiffin boxes for their mid-morning break. They can be topped with grated cheese or they could be taken along with yogurt and cheese dip made at home.

• To make yogurt and cheese dip-blend 25 gms of grated cheese in 1-cup low fat yogurt and 2 cloves, garlic, season with salt, pepper and mustard powder.

• Most whole pulses are rich in calcium, rajma, Kabuli Channa; Black Channa, Green Channa, chowli etc. can be cooked with onions and Tomatoes and taken along with rice or Chappati.

• Most green vegetables like Methi, broccoli, spinach, radish leaves are extremely rich in calcium. Children would probably enjoy spinach soup made in milk along with a grilled cheese sandwich made from whole wheat bread.

• Almonds and Sesame seeds are exceptionally rich in calcium. Children could enjoy a rice kheer made with milk, almonds, sesame seeds and jaggery. Jaggery is also very rich in calcium.

• Mint and coriander chutney is highly accepted by children and is also rich in calcium. You could spread this green chutney liberally on their whole wheat sandwiches or they could eat it as an accompaniment with Khakra or with their regular meals.

• Walnuts, figs, dates and apricots also make health snack foods for Children. They are rich in calcium.

Choose the options your child is most likely to enjoy, because variety improves everyone’s appetite.

Mom and Dad,Please change your attitude (मम्मी आणि पप्पा आता तरी बदला ना!)

बाळाच्या जन्माचा सर्वात जास्त आनंद त्याच्या मम्मी-पप्पांना होतो. मुलांसोबत मम्मी-पप्पा मूल होउनच खेळत असतात. मुलांनाही ते आवडते; पण जेव्हा मुले मोठी होऊ लागतात, तेव्हा त्यांना प्रत्येक बाबतीत मम्मी-पप्पांची लुडबुड खटकु लागते, मुले मोठी झाल्यानंतरही आई-वडिल त्यांना लहान समजून त्यांच्या प्रत्येक कामात टोकाटोकी करू लागतात व ते मुलांना आवडत नाही, इथुनच वाद सुरू होतात.

आई-वडिल टोकतात तेव्हा:

नव्या पिढितिल मुले आपले जीवन स्वतंत्रपणे जगू इच्छित असतात. त्यांची एक वेगळी lifestyle असते. याचा अर्थ त्यांना आपल्या जबाबदारीची जाणीव नसते असा नव्हे; पण मम्मी-पप्पा मुलांवर एवढी बंधने लादतात की, मुले त्यांचा विरोध करू लागतात वा निमुटपणे सारे सहन करीत राहतात.

प्रत्येक छोट्या मोठ्या कामातील आपले टोकणे मुलातिल व आपल्यातील दुरावा वाढवत नेतो.

आमचेही ऐका:

मुलांना कोणत्याही गोष्टीसाठी टोकणे वा स्पष्ट नकार देण्यापुर्वि आई-वडिलांनी त्यांचे म्हणनेहि ऐकायला हवे. नंतर विचारपूर्वक कोणत्याही गोष्टीला तर्कसुसंगत उत्तर द्यायला हवे, यामुळे मुलांनाही चांगले-वाईट कळु लागते. प्रत्येक बाबतीत आई-वडिलांचा नकार ऐकून मुले त्यांना काहीच विचारीनाशी होतात. नेहमी नकारात्मक धोरण ठेवण्यापेक्षा कधीकधी मुलांसोबत सकारात्मक्तेनेही वागा. त्यामुळे मुले आपल्या मनातील विचार स्पष्टपणे बोलून दाखवतील.

ज़माना बदलला आहे:

काही पालक आपल्या मुलांना नेहमी स्वत:च्या काळातिल उदाहरणे देत असतात; परंतु आजच्या बदलत्या काळात त्यातील प्रत्येक उदाहरण चपलख बसु शकत नाही. आता ज़माना बदलला आहे व त्यानुसार लोकांचे विचारही बदलले आहेत. हल्ली शाळा कॉलेजात मुले-मुली एकत्र शिकत असतात. त्यामुळे जर आई-वडिलांना वाटत असेल की त्यांच्या मुलाने मुलींशी वा मुलीने मुलांशी बोलू नये तर हे शक्य नसते. आई-वडिलांनी बदलत्या काळानुसार विचारही बदलायला हवेत.

तेव्हा बदलणार ना तुमचे विचार?
