It's quite possible that your child was born to be a genius designer or writer, but first he needs help to take a step in the right direction.

In such situations, caring moms and dads attack on all fronts – trying sports sections along with intellectual ones.

For this case, experts have a simple instruction that will solve this difficult problem in no time.

How not to miss your child's talent

1. Watch children playing, keep track of what the child plays with, what objects he is interested in, what he draws more often, whether he is in company or prefers solitude.

2. Let the child decide for himself, but to do this, eliminate external stimuli - TV, smartphone, etc. Idleness prevents not only children from finding themselves, but also adults.

3. Be sure to give your child the right to choose. Even if he gets carried away and then quits, that's okay. Call the process natural selection.

4. If you have discovered creative talent, start developing it with the help of a teacher. Perhaps this is just the tip of the iceberg.

5. Don't overload, because the child can lose interest very quickly. Let him switch his attention to something not so significant, but interesting for him personally.

6. Be sure to encourage and praise. And not only for the result, but also for the desire shown. Don't forget that everyone makes mistakes.

7. Don't even think of comparing yourself to your neighbors' children, relatives, or yourself. This hurts your self-esteem.

The main thing to remember is that if the child’s interests have changed, then insisting on anything is useless.
