When your child asks you a question，don't answer it straight away.Instead，help him or her bring up “questions that pique their curiosity.” This way，we help children make connections between what they're learning at school and the world beyond their classroom.We also show them that learning does not，and should not，end when one is “done with school”—it's actually a lifelong process! 2．Let them fail. Our kids love learning about different scientific concepts via The Magic School Bus videos on YouTube.And one of the characters，Miss Frizzle (the science teacher) always says this phrase: “Take chances，make mistakes，and get messy.” I always quote (引述) her when the kids say they're afraid to do or learn something because they might do it wrong or make a mistake.If we don't allow our kids to fail，they won't be able to learn to “use mistakes and failures to make lifelong learning easier，” as Dr.Price-Mitchell says. 3．Learn through experience. This is very true for all of us，especially children.In the words of Dr.Price-Mitchell，“Learning through experience，not just from books，is one of the best ways to give the youth the skills they need for lifelong learning，living，and working in the 21st century.” Of c
