Parenting Tips: Parents want to give a good upbringing to the child and make him smart, for which he is sent to the best schools and tuitions are also arranged so that the child stays at the top in studies. But, just being ahead in studies is not everything, it is also important for the child to be street smart. Children should be brought up in such a way that they do not get scared of the challenges of the outside world from the books and can get out of every difficulty on their own. Know here what are the 5 things that you can make a part of your upbringing and make children smart. 

How to raise smart children 

Teach books outside of school 

Not just school books, but also inculcate in children the habit of reading other novels, short stories written by great authors or poems. If children become readers, they will develop curiosity and a different understanding of the world. Children's creativity also increases in this way. 

Promote the arts 

Creative children see life from a different perspective. In such a situation, encourage the art of the child. If the child is fond of singing, dancing or painting, then let him do all this. 

Problem solving skills 

Give children puzzle games, suspense and mystery shows or books to read that can help them develop problem solving skills. This helps children develop the wisdom to fight any challenge. 

Teach small tasks 

Do not limit the world of children to just school and books. Try to teach children new things, teach them new skills and involve them in household chores or gardening. This will develop the talent of doing small tasks in children. 

Don't just look for comfort 

A street smart person is one who knows how to deal with any situation. If you want your child to be street smart, so that no one can fool him or he does not get overshadowed by anyone in the crowd, then teach your child how to live without comfort. Too much pampering makes children get used to comfort only, which at some point starts to hamper their growth and development.
