Kehkashan Kanwal Education Redefine
Set a Good Example
• Children tend to do what you do,
not necessarily what you say so
it’s important to model the
behavior that you’d like to see in
them.
• “Your children will become what
you are so be what you want
them to be”

Redefine Education

Conversate & Spend
Time
• Speak to your children as
if they are the wisest ,
kindest , most beautiful
and magical human on
the Earth, for what they
believe is what they will
become.
• The way we talk and
spend time with them will
become their inner voice.

Set rules and policy
• Fast from your devices / Stopping Cue

• Make the most of family time by creating a no-

mobile zone at the dinner table or even in the car.

• Removing the temptation to check notifications mid-

conversations can help take away distractions and
encourage everyone to be present in the moment.

• limiting phones from the bedroom at night is

advised for children to get better sleep.
