New Year’s Resolutions to Make Kids Sharper at Home and Smarter at School

Only 21% of U.S. kids get the recommended daily 60 minutes of physical activity, which boosts memory and problem-solving, experts say.

  • This New Year, parents and families can adopt four home resolutions—music, activity, academic tools and sleep—to support kids and teens ages 6-17 through at-home after-school routines.
  • With only 21% meeting activity guidelines, the Physical Activity Alliance reports parents and families must address low daily movement, math struggles for students, and enforce recommended sleep ranges for 6–12 and 13–18 year olds.
  • Introduce music at home with a compact keyboard like Casio’s CT-S1, use the fx-9750GIII calculator for math, and try family bike rides, hikes, yoga or dance to boost activity.
  • Research shows music and movement improve cognition, linking music to achievement and physical activity to memory, while regular sleep and tools boost alertness and homework engagement for kids.
  • This New Year, start by changing after-school routines as StatePoint advises parents and families to adopt simple, low-cost habits at home that boost school performance and sleep quality.
