You can learn so much about your children from playtime. Playtime for children can be more revealing about who they are than talking or even watching them in a vocation as they get older.

When there is no test to pass, no educator to please, God-given strengths can flourish through playtime. So as parents, it's important to remember not to confuse an interest that your child has in something with a strength that remains through life.

Helping children pursue interests is not about pushing them to be their best at something or jumping into something you think is a natural fit for them.

The best way to lead your children in the process of discovery is through observation.

When you pay attention to the interest of your child, their strengths start to emerge. So ask questions, listen, and watch what they wonder about. Children are full of surprises.
