Children, with their still underdeveloped brains, have a harder time paying attention to certain things.
At the same time, this is a rather important skill that will be useful to the child both at school and in general in life in the future.
Therefore, the sooner a child begins to work on developing the ability to concentrate, the better for him.
To teach your little one to focus on what's important, you can use a variety of methods.
Poems
For memorization, choose works by your favorite author or those whose topic is interesting to your child. To begin with, try to teach your child one poem or passage per week, and then increase the load.
The Pomodoro Method
This method was proposed by time management expert Francesco Cirillo in the 80s of the last century.
A “pomodoro” is a 25-minute work session followed by a 5-minute break.
In total, you need to “eat” four “tomatoes” to give yourself a 15-30 minute rest.
Your child will likely become more enthusiastic if you offer him a motivation system, for example, after four “pomodoros” allow him to eat something tasty or spend time on social networks.

Through physical exercise, the brain learns to ignore distractions and also trains willpower, which has a positive effect on a person's ability to focus.
