[quote=Anonymous]I'm in ed and a parent of a 4 year old. I get it. It's tough. I wouldn't worry about academics and I'd stop doing worksheets. Focus on playing, growing, and exploring. What time does she get up? My kid gets up at 6 and we get a quick snack and then go on a fairly long walk. Then we play until 9 (my start time). He then eats breakfast while I check email at the table and then he's on his own until 11. DH takes lunch 11-12 and the go for a walk and then eat. He then watches an episode of paw patrol until I take lunch from 12:30-1:30. We normally go back outside to play basketball. He then come into the office to do "art" from 1:30-3:30, which involves cutting up junk mail, coloring, gluing, and whatever entertains him. Then he gets a snack box and self entertains until dad is done at 4. If I have a zoom call that I'm in listen online mode for, I turn off my camera part way through and we build legos. I'll hop off mute when needed, but it helps a ton. A little but if staggering or finding activities to do together really helps.[/quote]
