Question is how to make your kids smart? My approaches:
- Could depend on the quaility of education they get (which you partly influence as a parent). Talk to the teacher, ask them how they are learning to learn.
- Let them get bored from time to time. I'm jealous on my kids when they have the feeling that they are bored.
- Learn them to ask for help after they tried something after 3-5 times. Don't help them immediately. Let them wait or just watch them trying (often when someone is just watching, they succeed).
- Keep learning. Explore. Learn to learn.
- There are no dumb questions.
