Make something together. Do family handprints on art parer and frame it for the living room.\nSpend time in the kitchen - cookies are fun to make and decorate no matter what age they are.\nGet everyone a disposable camera. Take random pictures of each other. You can buy wooden frames (Dollar Tree, Wal-Mart, craft stores) and decorate these frames to put your photo's in. Your kids will love that THEY took pictures and they are desplayed thru-out the house.\nI know it's hard cause the little one is so little, but anything outside - soccer, blowing soap bubbles, sidewalk chalk is family fun time.

Help him (or her) to find things that he's good at.  Compliment him on things he does do well--simple things like shoe-tying, buttering bread, taking turns, etc.   Get him to help you with things and when you do don't say "will you..." say "I need you to..."   It's great for kids to feel needed.  And mostly, just love him.

Take your son to the local park playground.  Even the local McDonalds has a play area for kids.  You don't need to get an official group.

It depends on how old your son is.You need to be very honest with your son about his father without sounding condescending.Make sure that you are being truthful but not mean.You have your own feelings about your man and so should your son.When you do decide to let them spend time together supervise.Make sure that all of you are on the same page and understand the roles you are all playing.Good luck

You can do simple things like potato sack races, pin the tail on the donkey, bingo, stuff like that.  Since the kids are so young, they don't need a lot to be entertained and you want to do something that doesn't require a lot of rules/directions.  Besides, you also want stuff they can't cheat easily with!

In the UK we use programmes called Sounds-Write and THRASS which encourage children to listen to the sounds in a word and break it down in order to spell it correctly. They are not listening only for single letters but for block sounds too - th, gr, ee, etc.\n\nWe have lots of word games that we play. One of the most popular is a jigsaw puzzle type game for putting parts of words together to see the different words you can make and spell correctly. Children have a picture in front of them which they then 'label' with the puzzle pieces. ie picture of a frog; child finds 'fr' and 'og'.\n\nYou can use everyday objects around the house to encourage your son to speak. 'J' for juice. 'B' for bed. Get him to say these things with you. When you go shopping, give him his own list and help him work through it around the store, crossing off words as he finds the object. This will help him link words with daily life. \n\nTry not to make a huge thing out of it though. You don't want to put him off! His achievements, however small they may seem to you, need praising and he needs constant encouragement. \n\nI hope you understand what I mean.\nGood luck.

Don't know what age son is however,                   respect him as a person first and don't compare him to others.\nIf he gets something right no matter how small, praise him. If he gets it wrong sit with him and discuss how he can get it right the next time.\nYoung people do well at different things they are not all good at one thing, remember that when you are trying to motivate him

Bribery might help, give him something to look forward to at the end of each nine weeks and if he does well you could take him on a mini trip or buy him a game he wants. Some kids are motivated in diff ways so don't worry it might be something personal in his life like friends or girls, hope all goes well!

Congrats on your baby! The most important thing you can do is spend time with your child. Sound too easy? It is well worth it. Love them, care for them, talk to them, sing to them, read to them, play with them, cuddle them, show lots of affection. The "teaching" part will come easily enough. You will discover that your child wants nothing more than your attention and time, and when they get that, they will shine!

Discipline. Or you will be in for some really tough times once he is older.  Grounding, take away things he likes.  Follow through, and don't give in.  You need tough love Mom.

start using your vacation time and spend a day out of a week as a volunteer in your son's classes.  if he says he has no homework, look at his text books and make some worksheets for him to help him study?  remove the TV from his bedroom.  Use your lunch breaks everyother week to pay his teachers a visit and find out if he is lying about school work.  find out what his homework is from the teachers, they can email you reports once a week.  then ask to see the finished homework you know your son has, because the email said he had homework every night after dinner.

Ask if there is anything you can do for them. Usually, there is. At least let them know you're there. \n\n.
