With many students heading back to class remotely this school year, parents may be looking for ways to support and enrich their child's learning with creative ideas.

Capital M parenting contributor, Carly Dorogi, joined ABC 7 to share some examples of creative tips that parents can use for all age groups.

TIP #1: Honor your child's interests.

This is a hard time for kids and learning through these new modalities can be stressful.

Find ways to enrich your child's learning by tapping into their passions and interests and let them learn that way.
