Here are some Tips for parents who really care about their children and who would like to help them with their school work and co-curricular activities.

Make a schedule of all activities including homework, games from morning to night.
Display the Schedule prominently and make any changes well in advance
Make simple rules and stick to them. If necessary write them down with a penalty for breaking them.
Make sure that your instructions are specific like ‘put your toys away’ instead of ‘clean the room’.
Keep the child’s things – clothes, bags, shoes in their own place.
Involve them in little chores and praise them when task is done.
Look at the efforts, not the marks when school work is concerned.
Teach the child to write down homework and to bring home the required books.
Don’t lose your temper. Give small rewards for good behavior or following rules consistently.
Give the child a boost at what the child is talented at.
Most important, keep communication lines with the child open.
