There's nothing quite so rewarding as helping your own child with their homework, but sometimes parents and caregivers need a little extra guidance to do so effectively. So let's share our tips for keeping learning fun and helping kids really understand the work at hand!

First of all, what strategies have you found useful for tackling difficult questions or concepts? We'll all have different experiences and insights, so don't hesitate to share your wisdom below!

I'll start: I've found that breaking down larger concepts into manageable chunks really helps my child understand them. For instance, instead of approaching a complex math problem all at once, I break it down stage by stage and make sure they understand each stage before moving on. This seems to help them grasp the overall concept better and builds their confidence too.
