PrepWell Podcast - Ep. 13 | How to Keep Track of your Child’s Extracurricular Activities
Show Notes:
In this episode, I discuss how to help your child keep track of their extracurricular activities. There are many options - some of which your child (or you) may already be doing - from doing nothing, to recording events in a notebook, collecting articles or certificates in a physical folder, updating a computer file or spreadsheet - or, doing what PrepWellers do - which is updating, in real-time, their own LinkedIn profile.
The goal of these options (and there are plenty of others) is to document important moments in your child’s life.
Today, I’m going to walk you through the importance of this process and each of the steps required to be successful.
