Let Your Child Speak Fluent English
Academics must be introduced to children at an early age. Children are gifted with the ability to learn quickly. Children learn most things that influence their character, behaviour, and interests until they are five years old. At this age, children are eager to learn new things, words, and about their environment.
I'm a mother of a three-year-old and nine-month-old child, and I'm delighted to share the methods and tricks I've used to develop English-speaking skills for my children.
When to begin is the first and most important question that comes to the mother's mind. We can begin as early as their first months. Yes! Even if our child does not grasp what you are saying, they will learn to understand the meaning of frequently used words. We can begin with two-word statements such as:
Please come.
Sit down.
Go there.
Take this.
Give me.
This gives a child ease of speaking.
1. Magic Potion:
Vocabulary is a magical component of any language. We must let our children learn new terms and words. As a result, we must make it enjoyable. We can choose from the following options:
Narrating stories in easy language.
Watching poems or cartoons in English only.
Using small sentences in day-to-day life with your child.
At the age of three and half years, a kid learns to speak small sentences comprising five words. Rich vocabulary will help your child to express their emotions with ease.
2. Grooming:
We can begin improving their English speaking skills after he reaches the age of three and a half years. Learning is a lifelong process. To get them on a self-improvement track, small board books and storybooks of their interests can be introduced here.
I want to recommend some of my children's favourite books to you:
Greta and the Giants
Dragons Love Tacos
Ten Magic Butterflies
The Scarecrow
Just Because
Likewise, you can choose books of your child's interest. Reading books and watching shows of their interest in English would be a great help for the kid.
I hope this article will help you to make it easy for your kid to learn English.
Thank you!

You Need These 10 Motivational Tips to Make Sure You Don't Give Up On Your Weight-Loss Journey!
A little effort can quickly take you from fat to fab in no time. You know you need to lose weight, you know what to do, now all you need is a tad bit of motivation to start working out.
It can especially be hard when your mommy duties seem overwhelming and all-encompassing.
Are you shying from attending that big wedding party because your favourite outfit feels a little too tight these days? If these concerns are keeping you away from social events and parties, it’s time to get off the couch and lose the flab.
Have a look at some thin-spiring weight loss motivation techniques that will make you melt those excess pounds away with ease. Fortunately, getting rid of the extra kilos is not as hard as it seems!
10 Ways to Stay Motivated While Losing Weight
If you are looking for some weight loss motivation tips to stay focused on your fitness and diet regime, look no further!
1. Identify Why
Why do you want to lose weight? Determine the reason that will fuel your determination and be razor sharp in your focus – the clearer your objective, the easier it is to stay on track. Do you want to stay in your kids’ lives well into your old-age? Enjoy eternity on earth with your soulmate? The bottom line is, once you envision the benefits of health and longevity, you'll find it easier to make the right decisions when you feel your resolve faltering.
2. Set Achievable Goals
Motivation for weight loss and exercise will come only when you establish achievable goals. Unrealistic objectives can demoralise you. So set a target that you feel comfortable with, and start slow. Even if your goal weight is a long way off, don't worry, break it up into smaller steps and keep the first milestone in sight. Once you start hitting mini milestones, you'll find yourself motivated to keep going and the major ones will be easier to come by.
3. Enjoy Your Workout
Let's face it – gyms work for some people, others can't stand them. Find your mojo and figure what works best for you. If you want weight loss to be permanent, there is just no way around exercise, so make sure you pick something you enjoy. Try out as many options as you need, until you hit the one that doesn't make you groan at the thought of getting around to doing it. Mix it up if you like – take your dog for a run one day, take the kids to a pool (hey summer's coming!) or get your husband to join a dance class with you, it might just have a whole bunch of other benefits ;) Enjoy your workout, and it'll seem a lot easier to make it part of your life.
4. Don’t Push Yourself too Hard
If you aren't losing as much as you expected, don’t lose hope. Your body is going through change and a certain amount of resistance is normal. Keep going, and stay strong in your resolve – it can be slow going, but if you stick to it, you will see results. Don't compare yourself to anyone else, your body is unique, and so is your weight loss journey.
5. Hire a Trainer
A qualified trainer can provide you with your regular dose of motivation for losing weight – they are trained to do so. While it may seem like an added expense, if you can afford it, it's well worth the extra money, because that way you have someone who has a vested interest in your success. A trainer will help you stay motivated, understand your body's requirements and assign a specific workout along with keeping you on your toes, quite literally!
6. Dig Out Old Photos
Sift through your old slam books and photo albums to dig out your good old skinny pictures. Put them up on the wall or your vision board and stay inspired to attain that figure again. In fact, don't stop at that – find quotes, sayings or images that speak to you and put them up where you can see them frequently – and places which house temptation, like the fridge! Chances are you may just stop yourself from reaching for that bar of chocolate if there's a thin-spiring message stuck to the door!
7. Keep Track of Your Weight
Keep checking your weight, and make sure you do it at the same time of the day. Keep your weighing scale in a place where you can comfortably get naked and clamber on. Also remember that your weight will fluctuate through the month – for instance when you're nearing your period, you might find yourself a little heavier, because your body might be retaining water – so don't worry if you find yourself gaining a few hundred grams here and there. Once you're on a roll, eating healthy and getting your heartbeat up regularly, you'll soon see the scale tip in the right direction, and that's going to get you to hit the exercise mat with renewed vigour.
8. Buy Your Dream Outfit
This one works every time – you might even say it's the ultimate motivational tip for losing weight. Buy yourself that one outfit you'd give your eye teeth to fit into and give it pride of place it in your closet. Spend a few minutes looking at it everyday (seriously!) and indulge in thinking of that moment when you can take it off the hanger, slip it on and look like a million bucks. Then change into your workout clothes and get started!
9. Document Your Journey
Once you make the decision to embark on this journey of weight loss, maintain a diary or a journal to write down every positive effort that you put in towards meeting your goal. This way, at the end of the day you will feel like you've accomplished something and are that much closer to success. Remember, just like tiny drops of water make a mighty ocean, so also, a little bit every day is going to get you to your goal.
10. Use Your Smartphone Smartly
You carry in your hand, a minicomputer, an entertainment machine, a personal assistant, an advisor, and a friend. There is a plethora of apps and online resources that you can access easily and stay motivated to lose weight. Develop your own diet plan, workout regime, log-on to an online system that tracks your eating, exercise habits and your movement. Use technology – it can add an amazing edge to your weight loss journey.
Consistent weight loss is more than just possible – it's well within your reach. No matter what weight you are, whether your goal is a number on a weighing scale, a label size on an outfit, or just to be able to run up several flights of stairs without feeling like you're going to pass out, it's doable. Remember, your body listens to your mind, so condition yourself to believe you can do it, and get started already! Read more

Is It the Right Time to Conceive? Not Prepared for It, But It Still Happened
Hey! Hope you all are doing good, and got vaccinated, too. Today, I am going to discuss the most common problem among women, and I know that almost all women think about it in their lives.
Some women are newly married, or some don't want to take the responsibility of kids till many years after marriage, so that they can enjoy life post-marriage. But when you make lots of efforts not to conceive as per your plan after marriage, but still get pregnant, then what to do?
We as women know that in this era, our bodies are not as strong as the women in the '80s. So, firstly, if you get pregnant despite all your planning not to conceive, you should never opt to abort, and never take it as a negative. It will not only affect the body for a future pregnancy, but can also have long-term effects on your mind.
From my experience, I have seen how most of my friends, who had aborted just because they wanted some time after marriage to enjoy themselves without responsibility, are crying for a baby, but unfortunately their bodies got affected by the continuous contraception taken to pause pregnancy for long-term.
If it's your first pregnancy, then be very kind, at least for the sake of your body, because in most of the cases, when women abort their first baby, then in future they face many problems. Whatever the situation is, unplanned or not, take your pregnancy as God's gift, and welcome it in your life. If you are not prepared, then it may take a few days, but you will accept it. After a few months of pregnancy, you will realise that it is the right time to have a baby, because most things can be done afterwards, but this time, the only responsibility is your baby. You can enjoy life, have a job, spend time with your partner once the baby turns 1 or 2 years old.
We should never take a pregnancy as a negative if it happens unplanned, because once you start accepting this unplanned situation, then you will get to know how precious it is, as being a mother doesn't stop you from working, enjoying, travelling, etc. So, take it and accept it as a plus point in your life, and the rest you will know yourself, about this beautiful journey, once you deliver God's gift. Mother is the name of God in the lips and heart of little kids.
