In everyday life, the word milestone is used, as the time when a task or work must be finished, or something must be achieved. Setting milestones for kids is never easy, as they are not too self-reliant and thus, they need more time or someone's help to finish a piece of work or achieve something.
Remember, while setting milestones for your kid, give them enough time to do something and don't set a goal for which they are not capable enough. Don't pressurize them to achieve that. Be the first mentor or counsellor of your kid because teaching and subsequent learning begin at home first. Always be available for their assistance and don't be too stern on them in finishing or achieve something as per the milestone.
