I rarely hear parents say that their children are gifted, and that's how I grew up. I have heard it several times, similar to "My child is particularly talented in playing the piano, and he can pop it up after listening to it", or "My child is particularly talented in table tennis and has a good sense of ball." ”
It seems that talent is mainly reflected in the arts and sports, but is talent limited to this? I saw a point of view the other day that was particularly good, "Talent is not about being the best at something, it's about how it affects you." From this point of view, in fact, each of us has talent, there is no need to inferiorize our own minds, and there is no need not to be confident.
This book is called "Everyone Has Talent", which is a picture book that allows children to re-understand "talent" and "talent", which not only makes children more confident, but also makes parents aware of their children's differences and excellence. At the end of the book, there is a "Talent Passport" where the reader can find all the talents, as well as specific tips. After reading the book, I thought, if only I could read this book when I was a child.
Or let's take a look at what the book says?
Because it is a picture book, there is no need to worry about the book being too boring, in fact, this book is about a class participating in a "talent" competition. The book observes a total of 8 scenes of classmates, including holiday travel, class, sports meeting, evening break, playground, seaside, party, museum, in these scenes, through the different behaviors of different students, it is not difficult to observe their very different talents.
At class parties, some children enliven the atmosphere, some design sets, some clean; at sports meetings, some children set new records, some cheer for their partners; before going to bed, some children focus on a novel, and some think about how to decorate the bedroom.
At the beginning of this article, I mentioned the phrase in Everyone Has Talent: "Talent is not about being the best you can be in a certain aspect, but about how it affects you." How do we understand it?
Talent should not only be a specific ability in art, sports, etc., but also a person's growth process, because of his own characteristics that make him reflect differences and advantages in some aspects. Understanding "talent" allows you to be more actively involved in life and be happy, while benefiting others.
I really highly recommend parent-child reading this book, because parents will have a new understanding of themselves and their children, and their children will be more confident.
Now that we have reacquainted ourselves with talent, we should understand that there are many types of talent. In addition to artistic and sports talents, the book also mentions many other talents, such as curiosity, thoughtfulness, kindness, and helpfulness.
Maybe these are not talents in the eyes of parents, so I will use the "knowledge sponge" as an example to see how the "talent passport" introduces this talent.
What is it?
You are full of curiosity. You like cold knowledge and interesting discoveries. If possible, you want to know everything.
You usually go around collecting information, which brings you vitality. You enjoy watching documentaries and also enjoy searching the web for some interesting facts.
You can't release the scroll. Your favorite thing is to lie in bed late at night and read, which is very pleasant for you.
Where to go?
Find an environment where you can use your knowledge to be creative.
Give yourself plenty of room to maneuver, speak and do things with caution, not too absolutely.
Small recommendations
You can never know everything, and that's nothing. Pick a few areas you really love, and try to let go of the rest.
Be careful not to spend all your time on curiosity. Determine how long you spend reading books and how long you go online, and set aside time for other interesting activities.
By reading this part, parents will understand what kind of talent they and their children have through "what", understand what kind of environment they should look for or create through "where to go", and know what things they should pay attention to through "tips".
In Everyone Has Talent, there are also industrious bees, error detectors, extreme challengers, thinkers, team builders, atmosphere detectors, language artists, obscure helpers, fountains of good ideas, blueprint designers, beauty seekers, hands-on creators, freewheeling flashers, collaborators, and meaning seekers.
After reading this book, I believe that everyone will realize that they are gifted. If children don't understand their talents, parents can help them become aware of their talents. It's not enough to just find talent, but also to give the talent as much space as possible and learn to control the talent.
21 The world's most lacking is talent, the definition of talent is very broad, do not just stick to the traditional ones, to see the shining points in each person, and fully explore.
"Everyone has talent" is such a book to help you discover, protect, and make good use of talents, and I hope that everyone will rejoice in their talents and be happy for their abilities.
