Many verbal games can be played while going in the car or just being at home. For instance, ''Guess the word?'' Or ''Which one doesn’t belong and why,'' the ''Yes or No game.'' It's fun, gets your child to think and adds to vocabulary building.

Games like hide and seek, puzzles, I Spy(colours, textures, shapes, sizes, other adjectives), board games(snakes and ladder, connect four, memory, tic tac toe) are amazing games to enhance his cognitive abilities. He also learns how to take turns and engage in cooperative play, adding to his social skills.

While playing, ask questions, “What do we do next?” OR “ What do we need?” This teaches him to verbalize his thinking aloud and helps, especially when he is stuck during the game.

If at all your child gets stuck or wants to give up, encourage him to solve the puzzle or game by asking questions, giving him hints, etc. This way you are encouraging problem solving. If he loses the game, tell him “It’s not all about winning a game. You had fun and work on improving the game next time.” This way he learns to accept defeat. When he wins, appreciate it too.

Financial Insights: From Health to Life Insurance

Health insurance is a critical tool for managing unexpected medical expenses. It ensures families can access essential healthcare when needed and offers a financial cushion during medical emergencies, reducing the strain of unforeseen costs.

On the other hand, life insurance focuses on providing financial security for loved ones in the event of unforeseen circumstances. A life cover guarantees stability, like a safety net for families. One particular form of life insurance, term insurance, provides substantial financial support to safeguard a family's future. For example, a 1 crore term insurance policy with a 20-year duration offers long-term protection, affordable premiums and peace of mind. Using online resources such as a term policy calculator helps estimate the right coverage amount, premiums and more, simplifying the entire decision-making process to a new level.
