How do you help your child become a successful adult? How do you give them the advantage in tomorrows world? Child expert Jane Simister identifies the techniques exhibited by great philosophers, writers, scientists and entrepreneurs, and then offers parents numerous, playful ways to show children how to make a habit of such techniques without them even realising they are being taught.
Qualities such as perseverance, a lateral approach to solving problems, risk assessment and the determination to persist beyond failure are not catered for on the school syllabus. The emphasis on testing and league tables means schools have little choice but to stick closely to the curriculum, teaching exactly whats needed to pass exams not enough to thrive in the real world. The outcome: school leavers lack the skills needed to flourish in a rapidly changing world. They know how to fit in, and give the right answer, and not how to work things out, problem solve, think laterally, assess situations with intelligence and be different.
But this doesnt have to be the case; parents can intervene. Young children have elaborate imaginations and unfailing curiosity in everything around them if they learn at the outset to value and utilise these qualities they will keep them forever.
Taking one secret-of-success at a time, C J Simister offers a wealth of wonderful activities and habits that mums and dads can call on, to preserve, nurture, grow and enhance that early creative potential in their children. All are designed to fit in with everyday family life, involving little or no preparation. They are ideal for keeping children amused in spare moments over a meal, in the car, even when stuck in the queue at the supermarket while at the same time fostering their investigative spirit, encouraging initiative, teaching them to discern sense from nonsense and demonstrating that failure can be a useful springboard for the next action.
