Financial Planning: Key to Your Child’s Optimal Growth

Having sound sleep is a sign of a well balanced and disciplined child. And when a child reaches five, it is even more important that he gets a good night’s sleep because during day time he would be busy with his other chores.

What you need to know
It is always a little tricky for parents to take a call on the child’s sleep patterns. Many of you might find it difficult to put your child to sleep at the right time so that he can wake up in time for school. But, sadly that doesn't happen. Most of you compensate the night sleep with an afternoon nap. But as matter of discipline, by the time your child is five, you must make it a habit to skip the afternoon nap. If a child takes an afternoon nap, he is bound to sleep late in the night and as a result will not wake up early.

What you can do
Engage your kid in some activities so that he doesn't fall asleep. Ensure that the child has food at least an hour before he sleeps. Don't give him anything to drink before he goes to sleep as it may increase the chances of bed wetting. With these little things in mind the child is sure to have a sound sleep in the night. Good sleep in turn gives the child a fresh start to the day. He is more agile and can concentrate better. Good sleep also indicates good health and a sound mind. So make sure your child gets a good night’s sleep every time he goes to bed.

Financial Planning: Key to Your Child’s Optimal Growth

Your child's all-round development combines formal education and creative activities. Mosaic art, for instance, develops hand-eye coordination and boosts confidence, which are the precursors to intellectual and emotional development.

Just as nurturing your child’s growth requires attention, securing the future involves proactive financial planning. Term insurance will provide your loved ones with financial protection for unforeseen emergencies. Considering the rising living costs, choosing a 1 crore term insurance plan will ensure sound protection.

When deciding on a life insurance plan, use a term insurance calculator to estimate the right coverage and premiums and always choose a plan that guarantees long-term financial security.
