Fun, Educational Activities For Parents And Children
Children who receive lots of positive attention from the adults in their lives are more likely to develop a clear system of values and live a productive and satisfying life. Take a break from homework, housework, or wasting time and have some fun together! (There will be learning, too!)

Did you know that actions that take place on the left side of the body originate in the right hemisphere of the brain? If you move your left hand it is the right side of your brain that is sending out the orders.

The different side of the brain are also responsible for different aspects of thinking and learning. In addition, just as some of us are right handed and some of us are left handed, a person either thinks predominately with the right brain hemisphere or the left hemisphere.

Are you right brain or left brain? Take a quiz.

Brain Works

Just in case you are curious, I'm a visual, left-brain thinker. :

If you have children younger than nine or ten, you might enjoy these brain teasers for young learners instead of the quiz.
