Children are born with a natural thirst to know more. When they are younger, they will use their hands and feet to explore and understand different senses. As soon as they are able to talk and walk that is when the real curiosity starts. You may notice your child starts to ask questions repetitively in order to understand different concepts. This may be that way of connecting to the adult world and figuring out new things. Whatever the reason maybe it is important to encourage your child to ask freely about anything that they are interested in and want to know more about as it will boost their confidence and prepare them for life as a student. Here are some tips on to raise an inquisitive child.


Start their education off early. 

Learning is one of the best ways to encourage a child to explore their curiosity about the world. When they start school, they will be introduced to different people, subjects and materials that are unfamiliar to them. Starting off education as early as possible will spark that curiosity and give them a good head start when it comes to school. You should also take opportunities to boost their education at home. Reading to them is a great way for them to learn about new topics and understand different things around the world. Family days out can consist of going to museums and science centres which will help them Explore their curiosity.

Ask them questions. 


The idea is to question them and pick their brains from time to time. this could be asking them about their favorite place in the world or what their favorite food is. Remember to prepare yourself for any questions that they have in return.
Raising an inquisitive child means raising one who is curious all the time. Give them the time and space to be adventurous and let them see the world through different points of views.
