Let’s be honest: Keeping kids motivated isn’t always easy, especially regarding school and homework. Kids probably want to play outside, build snowmen, and roast marshmallows on a camping trip rather than sit down, study and read.
As kids grow older and become more independent, they need more motivation to do what is appropriate. It’s normal and natural for kids to lose interest in things that feel more like obligations than fun activities. But you know what isn’t normal? When your child has no motivation at all.
