Sports play a large role in millions of lives. As parents, we want to find an activity that our children are passionate (热诚的) about. Let's look at how to encourage kids to play sports.
Let them pick which sport they want to play. Don't force kids to follow in your footsteps. Sports could be a chance to explore those undiscovered passions.
Once they decide to play a sport, take them to an event where that sport is played at a high level. We all remember the athletes we looked up to as a kid and trying to mimic (模仿) their every move.
Praise effort and be supportive. Not all kids are gifted athletes and that's OK. Recognize their hard work and achievements by treating them to enjoyable things like ice cream or a movie outing.
Make sports fun and let kids be kids. Keep in mind how a child's mind works. Let them find the fun in sports and support them as they try new activities and explore their interests.
Be present. The smallest action can have the largest impact (巨大影响). Make it normal to show up for your kids. It's an experience they
will always remember.
A. It's important to teach them to set goals.
B. They might have different passions than you.
C. When they look over to the sideline, be there.
D. Let them experience the game at an advanced level.
E. Take advantage of a time they are excited to be outdoors.
F. Their enjoyment in the sport, the fun, should be the top focus.
G. As long as they enjoy the activity and try their best, that's all you can ask for.
