Understanding that children progress at different rates is the first important step for coaches and parents trying to help their children learn new skills.

A child's attention span is limited, too. Remember to treat children as individuals. They will learn best by building on what they already know. Stage 2: Practising Once children understand what is to be achieved, practice is needed to refine the skills. Their experience with practising new skills must be meaningful yours. Find out more.
