Give Your Child a Chemistry Keychain

Give Your Child a Chemistry KeychainA good gift for a child who loves chemistry is a chemistry keychain. In the fall of their sixth grade year, I gave a first-grade girl a chemistry keychain made from colorful fairy figurines. This gift was not only thoughtful and a wonderful touch for a girl who loves science, but it was a perfect gift for that class that had fewer gifts than usual.My daughter loves to collect all kinds of chemistry accessories and fun things, so this gift was a unique one. It's not easy to find a gift for a girl in her age group who loves chemistry. That is because chemistry can be a very tough subject for kids. It's almost like telling them that they can't do something because there are objects out there that can actually do what they want to do.The chemistry keychain I gave to my daughter helped her understand that chemistry doesn't have to be difficult. It's fun. Not only does she love the figurines she has, but she also likes the matching other toys that were a lso included in the gift. So, she is becoming a real chemistry fan.Before the gift, she didn't know how to open her keyring. After she received her keychain, she opened it up and figured out that she could hold it just fine in her hand. And when she needed a pencil to do her science homework, she knew she could use the keychain to hold her favorite graphite.As the years have gone by, my daughter has enjoyed chemistry even more, and now she goes to her school's fifth grade chemistry lesson. She thinks it's a cool thing to do, but most of the other kids have not taken to the lesson as well as she has. Even though most of them haven't taken chemistry yet, my daughter said the fifth grade was just as fun as sixth grade.By giving a gift like this, you can help your child's development of learning, even if they never take chemistry in fifth grade. Some of them will get interested, but it's good to remember that you don't need to teach them all at once.If your child isn't ready to take che mistry in sixth grade, give them a keychain. You can let them enjoy a science toy, and they'll feel better about taking it in the future.
