Written by Carrefour St-Georges | August 1, 2024
Staying focused at home is not always easy! That’s why a calm and well-organized study space is essential to promote concentration and productivity in our little learners.
Check out our top tips to help you create a motivating and learning-friendly work environment in the comfort of your own home.
1. Choose the right location
Find a quiet and well-lit place in your home where your child can study without distraction. Don’t hesitate to make the space nice and harmonious! Quiet is not synonymous with boring, so encourage your child to decorate their study corner with inspiring elements to make it more pleasant and stimulating.
2. Choose functional furniture
Even with their young backs, don’t underestimate your child’s comfort! Choose an ergonomic desk and a comfortable chair that will promote good posture and reduce fatigue during longer study sessions.
3. Organize the workspace
A messy place reflects a messy head! Use storage equipment to ensure an organized and accessible workspace. This will greatly promote productivity, in addition to lightening the mental load of your aspiring student.
4. Create a schedule
Sometimes, all that’s missing is a good plan! Help your child establish a regular schedule that will help them structure their time by including periods dedicated to studying, breaks and extracurricular activities.
5. Encourage creativity and learning
Now that you have the perfect space, get your children excited about sitting there! Offer ideas for stimulating activities and creative projects to do in that same space so that they can associate this corner with a fun and enriching place and not just a chore.
