What to do to Educate your Own Children

I have thought of having my own kids time and time again. Although it may not be now, I do know that when I do have children, I want them to have all the knowledge that I can provide for them. Here is a list of all the fun ways, which I hope to teach my kids, not just educationally, but with morals and values attached.

Playing School- Playing school before they are in school will help them expect what they are going to experience in the real world. By getting a chalk board a few lesson plans such as one focused on counting, alphabets, etc, it would allow them to have a better understanding of the way things are like.

Word of the Day- By showing my children a larger vocabulary, it will benefit them essentially. I hope to create picture images, draw a picture with the word and the action of the word. For example if the word was Courage I could provide a symbol that gives an image for the definition. (for courage it could show a fist held tightly)

Reading- I would read to my children by vividly enacting the parts of the books or become the character. :)

Going to the Zoo- By going to the zoo, I would be able to teach them the various types of animals that exist as well as provide a fun fact that they can know about the animal. For example: Do you know the difference between a centipede and a millipede? One has 100 feet which is what centi means and milli means 1000.

Buying educational Videos- I would let them watch the videos and then question them about what they saw. "Where did (insert character name) go?"


I have numerous teaching techniques that would explore their minds and allow them to learn everything necessary in expanding their horizons. It is just a great way to learn not only about them but about myself. To have kids that look up to you for advice and knowledge is just amazing.
