You may be diving into your New Year’s resolutions—aiming for healthier habits, more family time, or simply getting organized. But the first part of 2025 also offers a perfect opportunity to help your child reset and refocus. With the school year in full gear and the post-holiday lull setting in, kids might need extra support to remain academically and emotionally on track.

Reading is more than just a skill—it’s a superpower. It helps kids ace their spelling tests, satisfies their endless curiosity (Why do giraffes have such long necks?), and prepares them for all the “adulting” tasks ahead, like deciphering tax forms and reading manuals to figure out why their dishwasher suddenly stopped working.

In a world where screens, widgets, and gadgets are at your child’s fingertips, figuring out the line between helpful technology and mindless scrolling can take effort. As a parent, you may find it’s a delicate balance to ensure your child benefits from technology without becoming overly dependent.

Math homework can be challenging—not just for your child, but for you, too. If you’re a parent who hasn’t seen a geometry problem since high school, when your child brings you their homework, you may feel stumped and unable to help them.
