Summary:

"An entertaining, imaginative guide to teaching your kids while having fun. You would do anything for your kids, right? What if you could do something meaningful for them in less than 15 minutes a day? You can. And you can do it through a combination of imparting knowledge, boosting confidence, and having fun.In Empower Your Kids, bestselling author Noah Charney encourages parents to teach their kids something new every day—while playing. To help today’s busy families, Charney shows parents how to keep these fun lessons short and adaptable with professional tricks to make them memorable. Examples are sprinkled throughout for inspiration, such as reading. If I Ran the Zooby Dr. Seuss and then designing your own zoo, taking a virtual online tour of the tomb of pharaoh Ramses VI and talking about mummies and hieroglyphics, or turning a museum visit into a treasure hunt. Parents will find that the miniature lessons are about playing first (in an educational way), and the learning is just a powerful, positive side effect. Featuring 365 lessons throughout the book, with topics as wide ranging as dinosaurs, the Middle Ages, art, the natural world, and outer space, Empower Your Kids is an indispensable resource for families wanting to learn and have fun at the same time"-- Bloomsbury Collections.
