ProductiveParenting.com is Your Resource for Fun

Spending fun, high-quality play time with your child has never been easier, thanks to www.productiveparenting.com. Productive Parenting operates differently from most other family activity sites: this site offers parents one daily, developmental, age-appropriate activity suggestion for each child rather than making readers search the site for an activity. Membership is free, and parents can choose to receive information in the way that best fits their lifestyle: either on their customized member homepage or by email. If members want other ideas, they can choose from a library of thousands of additional play activities, all designed by experts in child development to stimulate a growing child's mind. 

Understanding the many demands on a family's time, Productive Parenting helps fit learning into the family’s daily routine. Activities are designed to be simple, require little to no preparation, and use household items, such as rulers, rocks, bowls, balls, coins, and cups, making these activities appealing to the budget-conscious as well as being child-and-parent friendly.

Experts in early childhood education have created the activities to build one on the other from infancy to age five, laying the foundation for future learning and, at the same time, enhancing lasting parent-child relationships. 

The Productive Parenting team has given a tremendous amount of thought and effort into creating activities that are stimulating and fun for young children and their parents. David Elkind, PhD, and highly regarded author of The Power of Play says, “Play is a fundamental mode of learning that ensures the best preparation for future academic learning.” Different from drills and worksheets, his concept motivated the creators of Productive Parenting to base their website model on fundamental learning activities for parent and child play.
