Usually, I will spent some quality time with my girl playing her favorite dolls, and some time i even had to blend into playing 'ROBLOX' ! My goodness, the game wasn't as easy as i thought. And she can play better than I am. Allowing them to play game is good, but not the whole day. At least, they know what is going on if friends are talking about it. And maybe also reading some storybooks? ha ha I guess that is kids life. :lol:

I used to do a lot of cooking with my kids after school. They seemed to enjoy it and spend less time on their phones and games. Also, liked to swim with them in the condo. This is for the free activities, but my wife and I also wanted them to play an instrument so we took a piano teacher, I think it is important for them to learn that kind of thing, it helped a lot my daughter with concentration! To be honest haha they didn't really like it but I hope they will thanks us after. Actually we found our teacher on this site: https://bit.ly/35haSjO, I think there is other stuff as well.
Anyway, I think the best for your kids after school is not to stay too much on their phones so they don't forget real life :)

Yes, before-after school they mostly spend time with their gadgets all day long but not anymore I introduce them to an enrichment program that enhances their intellectual skill while having fun.

I think having quality with your child after every workday is a must. I usually learned a neat way to enhance my memory and also to help my kid remembers stuffs easily. The good thing about this is that he still have fun while learning. I attended a webinar of the online school's founder and I still use the method he mentioned on his lecture. It was really helpful.

I basically feed them and check how their day went so I can open up a discussion. It's my way to check their emotional level at some point, I would be able to address if they're having issues.

I agree its so difficult to get children off their gadgets , games and youtube these days.

And also have open communication to ensure their well-being at all times...chat like friends is my mantra...no secrets.
