2-year-old children's interest is changed very quickly. As you see, the child was still playing with blocks before one minute, but next minute you can find the kids has pulled the plug of TV . Although this is the age a child in common, but parents are not only looked on helplessly and allowed your children to develop freely. In fact, only some simple ways, you can let some of the child's attention span, and slowly develop his ability to focus on the things. Which is very beneficial to develop a good study habits later.

Do not provide too much choice one-time for your children. It is better for you to give kids a few toys, and you can provide different toys to children in order to enhance a freshness of something.
To provide toys for different ages children. As we know, any thing beyond the scope of children's abilities that will let children give up as soon and instead to focus on other things. Remember: the fun thing is not the best necessarily. One parent tell me by his personal experience, "We bought an electric car to our 2-year-old son. But the engine and feet into the pedal too hard for him. So he do not played with the car no longer while he sat on it for a moment."
So you'd better to judge whether the toy you purchase is suitable for your kids according to the understanding to children, even if the toys that is introduced as a suitable thing to all preschool children.
Select sports activity which let the children move up more easily attract them, such as dancing with music or playing football, etc..
To ensure adequate sleep and healthy eating for children. Lack of sleep and an unhealthy diet will affect the ability of adult attention, this is also true for the child.
Control the time of watching TV. If a 3-year-olds watch TV more than 1 hour per day, he or her appearing to a attention problems will increase nearly 10% at age 7.
To encourage children to extend his attention on something, you can set a time, and then look at whether the child can persist over a period of time. If this method does not work, do not be discouraged. Because the kids can learn to keep interest on the activities or toys which is their choice one day.
Not to be "grueling". Although the baby's attention training requires patience, but each time for 2-year-old baby should not focus too long time. Preferably after a few minutes in learning, give him a few minutes free time. And contents which training their attention must be changed frequently so that to make baby has a higher interest in the "attention" and persist in the end.
