Believe me it is not difficult at all. Super kid is nothing but a multi-faceted child who is excellent in anything and everything. Times need a person to be endowed with many skill-sets.
Therefore, a super kid is nothing but a balanced mix of being:
Academically bright
Ace in co-curricular activities
Champion in sports
Able to take on the challenges with a smile
Ethical
Disciplined
Respectful and affectionate
Passionate
Sincere
How to raise one?
Simple! Encourage them to chase excellence, the rest will follow.
1. Studies are the first priority
Acquiring true knowledge with the conceptual understanding can only make them touch base with a good life. Regular studies and nice expressive power gives them success. Efforts should be made from a very early stage to make success the second nature of the children.
Requirements-
Proper grasp of the subject
Completion of the home tasks and projects
Good command over the languages
Regular practice of the Mathematics
2. Set up big tangible targets
No small targets for false satisfaction, please! Keep their adrenaline flow high! Encourage them to conquer one peak after the other. As American author, spiritual leader, politician, and activist, Marianne Williamson has aptly said, “The top of one mountain is always the bottom of another.”
Children must-
Envisage their targets
Divide these into small ones
Keep achieving one after another
3. Let the child fall
Easier said than done! We love them too much, don’t we? Our first impulse is to solve their problems but are we going to be with them all the time? They must learn to get up after falling down. Don’t be their crutches. Walking with crutches is not normal. Let them fight their own battles to explore their strengths and develop the art of decision-making.
4. Social Skills
Social skills develop team spirit in them and ease their tasks. Besides, it makes the children popular among their peers and helps them learn synchronization.
5. Give them tasks
Many of us boast, “Oh! We don’t allow our daughter to work at home. Servants are there at her beck and call.” or “My son doesn’t have to do a thing. I ask him to just study and play. Home tasks, no-no, not for him!” Such parents just spoil their kids. Actually, the responsibilities make them mature and fulfilling these make them happy. Don’t worry for the small losses or misplacements, if any.
6. Be with them
You may have carried office work to home; may be loaded with the problems; have home chores to do or a good TV programme to watch.
Believe me, everything can wait because your quality time is precious for your children. They cherish it. Talk about their day, friends and their small world. Leave them on their own and you may never know about the important things happening in their lives which may lead to disastrous results.
7. Make your home a heaven to live in
“Children are great imitators. So give them something great to imitate.”
What would your quarrels teach them? They may carry it forward and grow up to be disturbed people causing more harm to the society. Most of the criminals or terrorists may be having neglected childhood with a war-zone of a home.
Maintain, peaceful, loving home which is full of prayers. “A family that prays together stays together.” Not only that, it blossoms into happy homes because the children carry it forward when they set up their own homes.
8. Praise them, but don’t overdo
“Oh boy, you are a genius. Why do you need to study?” or “Your dance is ultimate. When did you learn so proficiently?” Do these sentences actually encourage them? They, rather, kill their growth potential because such praise sets in false satisfaction. Acclaim their merit but also encourage them to learn, practice and improve.
9. Discipline is important but not in excess
Remember, your children are not the zombies but human beings. Respect their emotions. Mould them but don’t be a hard task-master.
10.Sports are important too.
Physical sports are crucial to maintain good health, agility, quick reflexes and fitness. Make sports a part of your children’s lives.
Takeaway
Keep faith. Raising Super-kids is super-cool.
