My five year old niece is too smart and needs more stimulation to keep her out of trouble, what can we do?
Answer:
Get her a private tutor or take her to supplemental education centers such as Kumon. Also consider enrolling her in Montessori private school.
She needs to be in school.. when she is home have activities for her to do. have her sing the alphabet to you while you cook.. have her make her room.. enroll her in ballet or dance.. Park activites are good because it tires her out and then keeps her busy
give her loads of attention and praise.. and take her out differnet places all the time
Buy her art supplies and encourage her to use her energy creating things. Stimulates the imagination and keeps her quiet while concentrating on projects.
My daughter is 5 (will be 6 on the 20th) she knows her animals and how to take care of them. If you don't want to teach your child all about animals chose something she is interested in and get involved with a lot of information about what it is she likes. Like get her books, videos let her discover things about her interests and watch her grow.
you need to get her involved in mind activities such as puzzles etc. something that will stimulate her growth. maybe go to your local library,ask her what interests her. she might know. also find out where you can get her a I.Q test your niece might be a gifted child! and they will help.
my 3yr old has the same issue. I've got her involved in EVERY extracurricular activity we can. It seems to keep her mind/body busy and teaches her at the same time. When we are at home, we do craft time as well. We go on nature walks she loves collecting leaves and rocks, then we come home and do collages etc..
my 6 year old daughter is very gifted also.we give her lots of paper...she loves to draw and design things .we also buy her workbooks.she is currently working on 5th grade math problems and reading at a 4th grade level...she doesn't watch very much TV...but she does love to dress up and role play too...and it doesn't have to be expensive alot of the math workbooks we get we download for free from the computer a good math website is http://tiger.towson.edu/~mlackn1/mathweb...
Get her involved with some kind of activity, like a dance class or music lessons. For the hours when she's at home, try some of the educational video games. Then she will be entertained and learning something at the same time!
Ask her questions when she starts to get a little out of controll, ask her to help you how to do things or how to do things to make her think and also to make her think she is a big girl and when she starts to act a bit wild remind her she is the big girl and big girls dont act like that
smart people cant be in trouble my friend skiped 2 grade and his mom said he was a good boy but if that is not the case for you you should ground him from seeing his friend after school or you can discuss his behavior with him
Find out what she is interested in and have her take classes in it. Most schools (being Gymnastics, Martial Arts, or other activities) often incorporate school learning with teaching of that activity. She will also learn to socialize with others and learn teamwork.
