How to discover a child's talent ll
Greetings to everyone one, I hope you guys are doing well.? I'm doing great over here through the grace of the all might God. I want to continue with the topic that I couldn't complete yesterday, this would be the second part the writing, for those who would like to read the first part you can read it here.
Let's start with the business of today, we are going to discuss on how to discover a child's talent when a child is young, the only time to discover a child's talent it at their tender age, if we want to discover their talents in a good way that it will also benefit them, this would be done at their young age, we are going to catch them young before it's get late. It's at their young age that the parents should focus very very well on their children to know exactly what their kids can offer.
It's from the childhood that a child will begin to demonstrate what is inside them, most of their talents are been discover from their tender age, it's at their tender age that the parents should be so close to their child in order to notice what their children are up to. Research has shown that if we want to help our children to get what they want, to behave well,or anyhow we want our child to be, we should catch them at thier young age of one to seven years.
Research has made it clear, it's at this age that they will listen, it is at this age that their brain is not much loaded with alot of things, at their age of seven they don't have decisions. It is what you deposit in them that they will become. At their age of one to seven they are just like a visitor coming to leave in your house in which you as the owner of the needs to give the visitor the rule and regulations that governs your house.
You will be the one showing the visitor alot of so many things in the house, so our kids from their tender age are like the visitors to our family and to the entire world, they will listen to what we are telling them at their new age. They will like to ask so many questions to have a good understanding, if you can see it with me once a child knows how to speaks well, they kind of questions he or she will be asking the parents, the parents will even baffles at some of the questions.
They are not just asking for asking sake, they are a good observant, there are a lot of things they need to understand before they start asking those questions, though I have been seeing some of the parents will take most of the questions their kids will ask for fun, before they ask questions it could be there are things they don't understand, and some of them since they are new they don't know how to put in the questions correctly, but inside the question there is something they need to understand before they bring out the questions.
And I want to encourage the parents not to become tired of answering their kids some questions, because some of their questions are very important to them, even when they are not able to put the questions rightly, the parents should be the ones helping them out to get their answers right. The parents have a lots of works to do for their kids if they must want their child to succeed.
Apart from teaching your child in the house the school also have a vital role to play to develop your child, so if the school is not good enough for your child I would advice parents not to send their children to such school. Learning today is a composition so if the school doesn't really match up to the school standard that is across the globe, I would advice the parents not to send their kids to such schools, today's learning is based on composition if not there wouldn't be school composition and brain challenges.
If the parents should want the best of their kids and to helps their kids get their dreams right the school have to contribute to the growth of our children.
There are so many ways we can help our children to discover their talents, if the parents wants to help their children to discover their talents, they should;
Be open to their ideas and their aspirations;
Encourage their abilities;
Accept their mistakes;
Don't pressurize them.
Be open to their ideas and their aspirations
If the parents must help their child to discover their talents, they must listen to their child's ideas their aspirations, they should be always ready to give a good and correct answers to their child when they ask a question. A child once asked a question that baffles me, he saw a man throughing balloons in the air, and this has been the man's business for a longest time, when ever there is an occasion like children's parties and of such, the man will come with his balloons, he will be throughing the balloons in other to attract the children to buy it.
One day as he was throwing the balloons in the air a young boy walked up to him and said Mr. Man why is there no black balloons here in the sky? I have been seeing some different colors but I have not seen black color?. And the man didn't give him the exact answer, he told him that there is no black color yet that he should buy any of the color he sees.
And to me when I heard the question I knew that the young boy would be an inventor, through the question he asked, I knew the boy needs people who understands his questions and give him a correct answer. We have to listen to our child to know exactly what they want, and where they are driving their questions to.
Encourage their abilities
They are times that our child will do something that we know those things they do is not just easy, we have to encourage our children when ever they do something that we know that they have tried their very own best, we have to encourage them when they do a good thing with their ability. Most kids value encouragement unlike adult, when you encourage your child's ability the will eager to do more.
Accept their mistakes
There is no body that has grown beyond making mistakes, we should not think that they will not be making mistakes, they are not an adult, there are the most people that should be making mistakes, they will make a lot of mistakes in so many ways, so it's left for the parents to correct them from their wrongs with love not with anger or with hatred.
Don't pressurize them
We don't need to rush them when trying to help our kids to discover their talents, talent is something that worthwhile and it will take time before our kids achieve their real talents, it is not through rushing that they will it right. We have to nurish them with good care, know that you are to help them and helping needs tolerance, when the parents wants to help their child to discover their talents it wouldn't be a thing of putting pressure on the child, you wouldn't force talent to come out of the child, all you need to give your child is time and a lot of encouragement and your assistance.
It is good to help our kids get their talents right,at their tender age, catch them young at their tender age, know that the children is our greatest investment, they would be the ones representing us in our absence, they will be the ones standing in our places when we become weak in our adulthood. It is good we do everything possible to help them get their talents right and stand well in other to help us in the future.
Children are observant and they need answers to those questions they are curious about. Parents need to give time to pay attention to them so they can answer their questions. Children feels bad when they aren't given attention to because they need parents to guide them in their ideas. Through this process, parents would identify their children's talents.
