Focus Power: Understanding and Supporting Children’s Attention Spans in Ages 5-7

You ask your child to start their homework, and within minutes they are gazing out the window or fiddling with their pencil. Sound familiar? For children ages 5 to 7, staying focused for longer stretches of time is a skill still in development. At this stage, attention span is closely tied to brain maturity, interest level, and environmental factors. And it can vary greatly from day to day.

Understanding what is realistic for your child’s age and how to gradually extend their focus can help reduce frustration and make learning time more productive.
