You know your child loves and enjoys their school from the big grin on their face when they return home! But don’t you wish they were about to tell you in great detail everything that happened while they were at school?
Sometimes, kids want to express their feelings and share their experiences but find themselves at a loss of words due to a limited vocabulary. They may understand all that you are saying, but may not be consciously aware of all the words on their own.

What Is The Importance Of School In Child Life?
For every child, school is the first exposure to the outside world. In fact, it is a whole world of their own with their individual rapports with others around them. No parents to help or direct them, no relatives who already know everything about them. It is a place where they build their own personality, choose their own friends and take the first step towards their learning journey.
Since parents and family members are not actively a part of the school life, children would like to discuss everything about what they did during the day when they come back home. But when they don’t have enough words in their memory bank, they resort to simply answering yes or no to all the questions that you ask.
