Interestingly enough, the child page comes before the parent page. When I was doing research on this, my expectation was vice-versa i.e. I thought as the name suggest, the parent page should come first. In Jay's Video, you will realize that child page has to be born before the parent. Lol!
How do we Create a Child Page?
Remember that "Lesson 1" has been indented meaning that we want it to be displayed as a sub-page. If you click to your Home screen you will see it displayed under the "Lesson" but the permalink shows that it is a page by its own on my website.
We want to create the "Lesson 1 page" a legal child page.
How do we do that?
In our example, click to the "Lesson 1" edit button so that the page will be ready for editing. At the side bar, you will see several options. Under the "Page Attributes" menu, you will find "Parent" obviously its displayed "no parent."
Click to the field and you will have all your pages displayed for selecting. Click to the "Lesson" page, this will make it the parent and lesson 1 page the child page. Do NOT forget to update the changes.
Did you notice the Permalink has changed? Before it was http://yourwebsite/lesson-1 but now its http://yourwebsite/lesson/lesson1 meaning that its a subordinate page. It is now a legal child page! (If I can be allowed to say so)
If you go to your home page, now you can easily access your child page. The parent page was created automatically after the child page.
Interesting!

I use categories instead of pages and I include them in my Main Menu.
When I create a new post for the specific category, I include the post in the Main Menu and I drag it under the category.
I've been busting my head trying to figure out how to include Keywords in the post titles and at the same time I didn't want them to appear in the navigation menu. Now I know.
Once again kudos for the excellent presentation.
