01
What they're learning

Help the child understand the lesson goal and make one idea they can proudly explain.

02
Explain it simply

Invite the child to show you what they are making. Use short questions, give them time to think, and let their choices lead the project.

03
Ask your young builder

What are you making, why did you choose it, and what would you like to try next?

04
If they get stuck

Break the activity into one tiny next step. Offer two choices, model one example, and praise the child's effort instead of taking over the project.

LANA'S REMINDER

Guide the process without taking over. The child stays the creator; the adult keeps the experience safe, calm, and encouraging.

Before you move on

Save one thing you made and describe what you would improve next.
