When we mention the growth of a child, we mean a comprehensive growth and not just academic. Science is constantly trying to help humans live a better life, and our kids are the projection of the future. Only education is a channel that could liberate one’s thoughts and forge one’s action to achieve greater goods. With much research and analysis, scientists have found, as much complex a brain maybe, a child’s brain is like a sponge and it has a tendency to grab things easily, especially those that are served through entertainment. Edutainment is a method of learning, combining both education and entertainment.
Advantages of edutainment
The mental and physical well being of a kid is essential to grasp knowledge. We live in a world surrounded by a conscious epiphany of cultivating great minds and we want the same for our kids. Yet, lose to keep balance in the process. Taking some help from edutainment. Advantages of edutainment.
Nourishes creativity and visualization- We must have come across the term free spirited. However, we don’t know how to provide freedom to your kid to be free spirited? Take some inspiration from the creative side. Your kids have an active brain which constantly tries to rationalize things for themselves and through edutainment you are aiding their way.
Game based learning- Games like chess and robotics might sound like an adult, intellectual games that are played at leisure or as a profession. However, it is observed that kids tend to pick up such complex games and activities at ease. Though the motive of familiarizing your kids with such activities is not just for fun but educational. They practise problem solving skills, deal with pattern recognition and retention etc.
Interactive in nature- Yes, edutainment is interactive. Your kids would develop to adapt to environments, meet others of the same age group, exchange thoughts and culture. That is the purpose of true learning.
Hands-on experience- Attraction towards audio or visual representation is usual for a kid. Similarly, theoretical knowledge will fulfil a part of learning and will not deal with comprehensive growth. Hands on experience are the best medium for kids to experience instances that could lead their way to greater discovery. The budding curiosity is leveraged by edutainment.
Acquainted with technology- Look around and you would see how much we are dependent on modern science and technology. Scratch coding or computing is a healthy way for kids to get to know about technology from an elementary level. Edutainment could be the future of learning when a greater degree of emphasis is being put to child development and growth.
