Hello,
It might sound a little difficult, but try making studies fun. Tell your child stories of how people were able to achieve their dreams by studying. Tell them your stories. Teach them in a way they would think that studies are also something to enjoy.
Next Steps
Keep a weekend reward for every week they study well. ( A healthy reward, but bribing)
Health Tips
Try not to burden them or say words of negativity. They’re too young and that could affect their mental health drastically.

If your child is unable to focus for a long duration then it is advisable to keep shorter study cycles and give 2-3 minutes break in between. Additionally finding innovative and hands ob ways to teach concepts usually creates interest in children. You may also want to look up youtube videos for the same.

Concentration in studies could be challenging especially in early ages. But you could develop interest in her studies by making it more exciting experience for her. Break her study time into smaller goals. When she achieve these mini-goals, reward her with something she likes, such as a small treat or playtime. Sometimes, studying with a friend can make it more fun. So have her study with some of her friends who like studying because kids often copy others through modelling.
Health Tips
You can also try using colorful flashcards, charts, and pictures to make her study materials more interesting

Hi there,
Between the ages of 7 and 9, kids are generally growing towards understanding complex concepts and developing abstract thinking. They are also discovering new things in their environment. So kids are often curious about a lot of things around them and may get distracted from tasks that need effort and patience.
You need to be extremely patient and more supportive. Positive reinforcement and unconditional support is the way to go.
Talk to a therapist who can guide you better.
Take care.
