[quote=Anonymous]+1 on the reading. We did very little after school activities when DC was young, just one sports type activity. The one thing we consistently did at home was read to DC every night, and when DC could read by self, DC read to self every night, still does at 9, and reads a ton. DC is now in a gifted program. We took and still take DC to the library almost weekly. Also, when reading talk to your DC about the story. I think the verbal interaction is also really important. The other thing I did was buy one of those math workbooks. It was never a set time type thing. DC did it whenever DC felt like it. But, I think some of this helps, too. You don't have to buy the workbooks. If you have a computer and printer, there are a lot of free sites that have math worksheets. And puzzles. DC has done puzzles since DC was two. I think all these things have helped. [/quote]
