Nurture your child's inner motivation to learn

Successful learners are motivated more by their own curiosity than by any other reward. To promote this kind of "intrinsic motivation," allow your child some independence to explore and be creative when playing. Provide learning challenges your child can be successful with. Then, when your child completes a task, ask, "How do you feel about your work? Did you do your best?" And when you offer praise, focus on effort and what your child learned.
