How To Teach Children Their Address And Phone Number

We know that every period has its right things to do for everyone of us, starting with childhood and ending with the agedness. So, in the childhood we all know that kids dream only about toys and playing, in the teenage we meet the first love, then we get responsible once we graduate high-school, and after college we are true grownups.





They say that childhood is the base of a successful life, because now it’s the moment to get to know the world, to understand what is happening around you and most of all, you learn to distinguish the right from the wrong. So if a child is raised properly, he will grow up harmonious and will be a happy and normal child.

For most of the moms, teaching to kids new things seems the hardest task, because children have a strong personality, so rarely you can apply something to more than 5 kids once. So, many moms usually ask themselves how to teach children their address and phone number, because there are two important information and they must learn it correctly.

If you want to know how to teach children their address and phone number, then you must not forget that their only daily “care” is to play, so you must not stop them form doing this when you start teaching them the things you want. So, you have to choose the moment when they are the most receptive and that usually in the morning, after the breakfast.

All you have to do is conceive this “information lesson” as a new game, because the kids will be thrilled. Though, you must prepare yourself a little bit before, because it is not a hard job, but neither a too easy one.


First of all you should start with the address, because kids memorize better the words comparing to the numbers. So, you have to find something funny in your address. For example, the sound that is created by 3 or 4 letters from the name of the street. The kids will be delighted when they will hear you pronounce the word in a funny way.

Another example is, if your address involves an avenue, to tell the child that the word “avenue” is similar to “adventure” and if he likes the adventure especially in the video games, he will definitely not forget his address.

When it comes to phone numbers, the situation gets a little bit more complicated, especially if your phone number has more than 6 digits. The easiest way is to teach a child his phone number is to create connections between the digits and things the kid loves. For example, if your phone number is 555- 2517, you should try this: 555 it is easy to remember, so the other digits are more important, 2 is because you have two dogs, 5 because he has 5 fingers to a hand, 1 because your house has just one floor and seven because he has seven blue toys.

In this way, you will see that he will be thrilled due to the fact that he learned something so important with the help of the things from his daily life. Even so, you must tell him that he must say his address and phone number only in special cases, and never to strangers.
