How eyeglasses can teach your kids a number of life lessons


Visionary business executive Sean Covey once said, “When you have incomplete paradigms about yourself or life in general, it’s like wearing glasses with the wrong prescription.”

True enough, finding a pattern or model in life is integral to one’s journey to growing up. Through age and wisdom, one must grow gracefully. Just like your child or someone dear to you. This Christmas, teach them a number of life lessons through the lens. 

 



Critical Thinking: Finding beauty in everything


Gifting eyeglasses for kids this season will give them an opportunity to appreciate the good and the not-so-good aspects of life. It is important that at an early age, they are scaffolded into finding the beauty in every circumstance. By doing so, we teach them how to think critically—how to look beyond the surface.

According to a developmental psychologist at UC Berkeley, children of today tend to be smarter at figuring solutions to certain problems. They are focused at learning about the world, and not merely about accomplishing things. Their natural curiosity fueled by the abundance of information presented in various multimedia needs constant nourishing from adults. Using proper tools such as eyeglasses that are appropriate for their grade and are also protective from UV rays aids in fostering an environment that is conducive for child development. 

 


Lifelong Learners: Igniting the fire of knowledge


It is very noticeable how children of today are very different from how kids were from older generation.

In its September 2020 data, Internet World Stats reported that Asia accounts for a lion’s share of the total Internet users, with 55.1%. While the data do not specify demographics, it can be said that children are very much exposed to the massive amount of data—data which they may use positively or negatively.

Allow them to learn freely. But, always be available to answer questions that bother them as they learn newer things. Experts say that there is no one right way to raising a child. But, there will always be tools that will help children be lifelong learners. Access to the Internet, basic technological devices, and eyeglasses for kids and parental supervision are the perfect combo to igniting the fire to learn and learn. 




Lasting impact


Have you ever received a gift during your childhood that you can still remember vividly until today? Why do you remember it so much?

This Christmas season, it is practical and strategic to give gifts that will have a lasting impact on the receiver. Giving eyeglasses for kids as a Christmas present could spark a number of possibilities that will contribute to how they think and act as adults.
