All parents want their child to be talented. But how few children grow up to lose their abilities! As you know, talent develops through creativity. This means that in order to develop talent, it is necessary to support the child's initiative and craving for creativity.
1. The main condition for creativity is a comfortable psychological environment for classes. This means that you always need to find words of support for the child's ideas, treat his projects with interest and sympathy, and create the necessary atmosphere for creativity.
2. Compassion should be shown for the failure of the child. You cannot constantly express disapproval about the results of creativity, because in this case the child will conclude that no matter how hard he tries, the result will not be satisfactory. It is important that the child is able to cope with bad moods and negative emotions.
3. The child's “strange” ideas must be accepted with patience. We must try to find a rational kernel in them, but in no case declare the idea “nonsense”, etc.
4. Children tend to ask many different questions. Sometimes it gets boring, but you shouldn't show it to your child. On the contrary, one should rejoice in his desire to learn about the world.
5. Excessive custody interferes with creativity. Therefore, it is necessary to periodically leave the child alone and allow him to independently do business.
6. It is necessary to teach the child to respect the point of view of other people, then he himself will be respected. This rule also applies to parents, since they are a role model for the child.
7. Parents should show their individuality without fear of being “not like everyone else”. Every talented person has met extraordinary personalities in his life who had a strong influence on his future activities. Parents may well be such personalities for their children.
8. It is known that many great discoveries are often made spontaneously, thanks to intuition, inspiration. Thus, it is worth teaching the child to rely in the process of creativity not only on the mind, but also on intuition.
9. In order that the activity is not interrupted by something outsiders, you need to teach the child to highlight the main thing in his work.
10. If a child has a friend or girlfriend with similar interests and level of development, he will never feel lonely and unrecognized.
11. Finally, you should explain to the child that his hobby is part of the complex life of human society, and teach him to recognize the good and the beautiful in this life.
But the most important thing is that the child must be sure of love and respect from his parents. These feelings must be expressed openly, if only because children who are confident in the love of their parents develop faster. And then the unique abilities inherent in every child from birth will certainly manifest.
