Newswise — Creating an environment that encourages children to do homework is a tough assignment. Ken Haller, M.D., associate professor of pediatrics at Saint Louis University, suggests that wearing a special shirt " in addition to having a designated workspace and the right supplies " can put children in the mood to buckle down and study.
"Putting on a special shirt to do homework is a concrete reminder that it's time to hit the books," he says. "Find something she likes but won't want to wear so much that she won't take it off when she finishes her homework."
