2 Types of Gifting and Talent in our Kids

Most kids have gifting and talents that you can notice in them when they’re young, you see it in them as early as 0 to as old as 5 years.

I think it’s the job of a parent to notice what the child likes before it fades away in them. You see, there’s a time when we dream and then there’s a time when reality hits and dreams fade away, we should do the most we can for them when they’re still dreaming.

In elementary school, take them to the museum, the library, take them to the park, take them to the mall to try out the hands on demonstrations at different shops, walk around the school, talk to your child’s teacher, try the public TV channel instead of cable, help them develop a curiosity for other things that are not TV or Social Media related. Take them to Home Depot for practical workshop demonstrations, take them to the festivals in and around your community and at school to learn about other ideas, people and cultures: this is how you develop talents and interests in young kids.

Does your child have the gift and talents that can easily be spotted or the one that’s harder to spot.

There’s a difference between the gift or talent in the child that will be a model, actor, singer, hairstylist, builder and the gifts and talents that they will display, compared to the child that has the gift of encouragement, leadership, organizing, helping, great orator or being a writer or having the gift of teaching.

Which gift does your child have?

Help your children walk in their purpose at a young age.
