Does your child read less and attention wanders more? The real mistake is not of the child, but of these things kept on his study table

This common complaint of every parent is – “My child sits down to read, but hours pass and not even a page ends.” We scold the child, ask him to focus, but have we ever thought that the real mess can be in the child, but in his place of reading?

Yes, some things placed on your child’s study table acts like ‘silent distraction’. They attract the child’s attention like a magnet and removes her mind from studies. If you want your child to study with full focus, then remove these 5 things immediately from his table today.

1. Mobile phones, tablets and video games
It is the biggest and most dangerous enemy. We feel that the child is studying by keeping the phone on the side, but the ‘tinge’ of a message or the game is enough to distract all his attention. At the time of studies, these gadgets should either be in another room or switch off.

2. Comics and 4 Books
The comics placed next to the book’s book will always find the child more interesting. When the child’s mind will get out of the chapter of history and will be lost in the world of cartoon character, you will not even know. The study table should have only and only books related to school and studies.

3. Food and drink items
Many parents put a glass of milk or a snack plate on the baby table in love. But this is a wrong habit. This not only makes books and copies dirty, but it also makes the environment of studies like a casual picnic. Decide a break to eat and drink and it is always away from the study table.

4. Faculty stationery and old paper
Ten types of pens, five types of highlighters, old test paper, piles of rough copies … It all makes a junk -like on the table. When the table itself is so scattered, how will the child’s brain be calm and focused? Keep only on the table that is needed at that time.

5. Toys or any favorite thing
Children often decorate their favorite car, doll or any toy on the table. They like it, but it is not good for studies. The child’s attention will go on that toy again and again and that mind will start making the story of playing with him.

So what should happen on the table?
Only work books, one or two pens, a diary, a water bottle and a good table lamp. Bus!

Remember, a clean and systematic study table gives the child a calm and positive atmosphere, which does not distract his attention, but in studies. This small change can bring great improvement in your child’s performance.
