Exercise with numbers

I remembered this incident after 5 years but I thought it would be a good article to post.
When my son was in KG he had a homework to practice numbers.He was not interested in doing the same as he felt it was boring to write the numbers.He was stubborn that he would not .
I hit upon a plan.I took out some blank papers and prepared it as an address book.I wrote down the names of my friends.I requested him to help me to prepare this address book.He was excited .
I started dictating the telephone numbers and the brat could never decipher that actually he was practicing the numbers.When you involve the kids more and then not instructing them it becomes easy to deal with them
