What are ways to enhance my child’s listening skills?

  1. Practice Active Listening: Encourage eye contact and response, like nodding or paraphrasing what was said.
  2. Use Listening Games: Play games like “Simon Says” to build focus and attention.
  3. Minimize Distractions: Set aside time to talk without background noise, like the TV or phone.
  4. Praise Good Listening: Acknowledge when they listen well to reinforce the habit.
