Summary

The way we parent has a significant impact on how our children develop. But equally as important is their education and for me, the most challenging part of parenting has been finding the right educational fit for each of my children. Preschools offer a lot of great options. How do you know how to find the best fit for your individual child's strengths and personality? Formal education (5+) doesn't usually offer quite the same variety of opportunities, but school choice is becoming more prevalent. Creative parents who understand the system can find great options when their assigned neighborhood school is not a fit. In this second episode, I cover the concepts of learning styles and multiple intelligence theory so you can have a deeper understanding of how your child learns, where they naturally excel, and why this matters when finding the right fit, preschool through high school.
