How do you teach your kids to finish what they start?
DS#1 (4 years) comes up with these complex projects that he will work on for literally hours at a time, but will not finish them.
He will take a break if he has to go to sleep or to school and carry on the next day - over a few days even, but will never finish it!
Sometimes when I say "let's go work on x again" he will tell me that he will rather do it later or tomorrow.
It's a lifeskill I really feel he needs to have, and I am concerned as I think it extends to classwork as well. They have 3 tasks to do each day during work time, and he often tells me that he didn't finish the third one, or even the second one so didn't get to the third one. I don't know if he is just a slow worker or what it is, but it has me worried.
what do you do and how?
