    It is a common problem that children lose interest in academics due to various reasons. Globally, six out of ten children and adolescents need to learn a minimum in reading and mathematics, according to a UIS paper. This is defined as a learning crisis, and it is critical to find out the root cause of this problem.

    We have filtered out some of the causes of this learning crisis to help parents in analyzing the reasons and assist their kids in overcoming them.

    Some of those reasons are

    1. Lack of knowledge regarding the significance of education

    It is one of the primary reasons that cause kids to lose interest in education. Parents and teachers are responsible for making kids understand the importance of education in an individual’s life. 

    Kids who do not know the importance of education usually have a casual approach to studies. Parents and teachers should find ways to sensitize kids and interest them in learning.

    2. Lack of Proper Environment

    The environment also plays a key role in motivating children to study. Children may lose interest in studies if they do not have a conducive environment. A tense home environment or persistent disruptions such as acrimonious arguments, alcohol addiction, etc., may distract children’s minds from studies. 

    So, parents are responsible for providing a better environment for their kids to study.

    3. Inappropriate Learning Process

    Some kids may have an interest in learning but not in the process of learning. The conventional learning processes are boring and unexciting and pressure children to lose interest in their studies. Especially if the teaching process involves memorization more, kids feel disinterested in learning. 

    So, teachers ought to think of some new ways, like experimenting with fun learning activities to lure children. It is not important to know how many hours a kid studies; it is better to understand how a kid can study innovatively.

    4. Imbalance in Health

    Parents should not force children to study because some children’s mental and physical health imbalances keep them from studying. It leads to poor academic performance. 

    Therefore, parents must understand that the mental and physical wellness of children plays a major role in their academic performance. For example, a child may be mentally fit but physically ill and unable to attend school regularly. This can impact the kid’s academic performance.

    Tips to pique kids’ interest in studies

    1. Make Study Enjoyable

    Parents and teachers need to focus on making studies enjoyable for kids. If teachers teach with the help of examples that are related to children, they will pay attention and retain it for a longer period. 

    Teachers should add creative things and include games and hands-on learning to make them interested in their studies. This will allow kids to enjoy their studies rather than feeling pressed. 

    2. Observe them while studying

    Parents and teachers should observe children while they are studying. Parents usually accompany their children while eating, playing, etc. Similarly, parents should be with their children while studying at home. 

    It is one of the effective ways to teach kids at home because kids face difficulties while studying alone. Parents can assist them in overcoming this obstacle.

    3. Know kids’ Interests

    To make kids interested in learning, parents ought to focus on knowing their interests. Sometimes, kids may have a problem with the learning process but not learning. 

    They might find it boring and difficult. As a result, parents must understand their children’s areas of interest. This can assist the child in remaining focused on their studies.

    4. Encouraging and Increasing their Curiosity

    Kids are usually curious about things they like. It is the parent’s responsibility to increase their curiosity, encourage them, and motivate them in the right direction. Kids should be taught to find their answers on their own. This helps kids to learn independently.

    5. Help to avoid distractions

    Everyone is so addicted to mobile phones, TV, etc., these days. The first and last activity we do while waking up is to use the mobile phone. Due to these distractions, kids are disinterested in studying. 

    So, parents need to make sure that their screen time is limited by setting up timings for using gadgets.
