I never thought I’d have a baby. It’s not that…
Getting Your Kids Interested in Science and Maths Using Photo Canvas-based Design
Design is usually treated as a purely decorative activity, a way of beautifying the world we live in and stimulating us as we go through our daily routines. And this is absolutely one of the core purposes of choosing colours, textures, shapes, and images for any interior space. Life is hard enough – we should all always have something beautiful and peaceful to look at.
But design has other possible uses, especially if you’re raising kids. The design you put into a child’s room can have all sorts of effects on them – including subtly inspiring them. The world needs more engineers, programmers, and scientists – and you could inspire your children to grow up to be the next generation of inventors, space explorers, or cutting-edge surgeons just with your choices of decor, like the photo canvas you put on their walls.
Maths and Science Photo Canvas Can be Exciting
The truth is, kids learn to hate science and math. They learn from TV shows and movies and books that people who enjoy math and science are the ‘nerds’ of every story. They learn it from the culture that celebrates athletes and singers more than the people who invented the iPhone. And they learn it from the adults around them – whether they realise it or not.
And lectures and constantly nagging about maths skills won’t do the job – that can just make it seem even more like a misery for the kid. Design, though, is all about excitement, so using dramatic, awe-inspiring photo canvas choices on the walls can subtly inspire your kids to pursue science. These could include awesome space photos from the Hubble Telescope, or magnified images of the microscopic world – all you need are incredible, amazing images filled with colour and drama. Every day, they will serve as reminders to your kids that science can be exciting.
Accessorise Scientifically
Your science-promoting design doesn’t have to just be wall art, either – every aspect of the room, including the knick-knacks can serve this purpose. For example, your child probably uses a nightlight. Instead of getting them some cartoon character, why not go for something like this dazzling number.
Yes, it’s a little whimsical, but imagine your little one going to sleep every night with that rocket ship in their dreams. They’ll definitely at least flirt with the idea of becoming an astronaut.
Ultimately, that’s all you can do – make a suggestion to the kids, and see if it takes root. Astronaut might just be a phase, something they want to dress as for Halloween, or it might be something that snowballs into choosing to study calculus – as a parent all you can do is plant those seeds, and see what grows from them.
So, think about inspiring your children to be the next legendary thinkers – and when you’ve chosen your inspirational wall art, click here and we will make certain they are so vibrant and cool-looking they’ll make anyone consider a maths degree.
