Andrew Pudewa, founder of the Institute for Excellence in Writing, shares how families can nurture attentiveness and contemplation in children despite today’s digital distractions. He offers practical insights on how activities such as reading physical books, practicing cursive, spending time outdoors, reading aloud, and memorization strengthen focus, imagination, and critical thinking in ways screens cannot. Pudewa also highlights the role of rich vocabulary in deepening thought, the value of calm environments for reflection, and how poetry and music can awaken an appreciation for beauty.
