Dear parents, the most important thing in advance: No matter how the testimony is at the end of the first half of 2024/25, no child should be afraid to get home. Even if the grades are underground again or again.

So next week there are only mediocre or bad grades on the testimony of your offspring, speak fairly and honestly with him about it. Think about what can and should run better in the coming half of the year and check off the past school year.

And now that we have clarified this, we would rather tell you a few ideas about what you do on the day of the certificate with your children or how you can give them a little pleasure.

1. Gives recognition, but also consolation

With good grades, it is not difficult for anyone to praise their child praise. It is important, however, that you not only praise the result, but look at the performance. There are children who are not difficult for them to be good at school. And these children also bring good grades home.

But there are also children who have to do more than others and still bring 'only' mediocre grades home. Therefore, not only recognizes the work that your child has done. A three may also have cost a lot of sweat and effort. And that's why it is important to reward this effort.

If your child himself is disappointed with his certificate, then. Help him not despair of one or two grades, but build it up. For example, you can have a cute 'consolation'Shop here at Amazon*.

2. Give them time, no money

Refrain from rewarding your child for his (good) notes with a banknote. This may be simple and also appear very located depending on the age, but basically it is only a unimaginative idea. In addition, money is not a particularly sustainable reward.

It is therefore better to celebrate the testimony with a nice trip, go to the cinema together or push a few balls on the bowling alley. The time together as a gift for the testimony gives your child that you participate in his school life, you are interested in exactly that and recognize your performance.

3. gives according to interests

What could your child really shine at school? Is it a small bookworm and loves to dive into stories? Then give him a new, exciting book. This is guaranteed to have fun during the winter holidays (if there are some with you).

Above all, he is the math lessons and it has fun with large and small puzzles, then gives him a math puzzle book (Here you can order one directly from Amazon*). This makes long cars or train journeys on vacation much more pleasant.

And if your child likes to try things out, like in chemical or physics lessons, then give him a small experimental case or a mini laboratory (Simply shop right here at Amazon*).

Good to know:

4. Gives ideas

After the allocation of certificates, most of the kids are free to do what they want all day all day. Because the activities outside in winter are rather limited (and unfortunately snow is not a guarantee in German winter) and therefore your offspring is not lazy all day long, you can give it a little inspiration for free hours.

How about a set of fins and snorkeling (Shop here at Amazon*) For one or the other indoor pool visit, a voucher for the ice rink or for a small shopping trip? Alsoor aare a good gift idea for a certificate.

5. Gives and celebrates a little testimony party

Regardless of whether it is the first testimony for your child or the third, a small party throws on the last school day of the half year. Load friends or grandparents, throw the grill on, put the fire barrel in the garden and do not lack anything.

This not only celebrates the school child and his certificate, but also the end of the first half of the year. A nice tradition for the entire school career.
