Hidden Talent Tip #5


An inclination to solve puzzles and riddles
Some children are absolutely brilliant in solving any type of puzzles, riddles, Sudoku, jigsaws and incomplete mystery stories. They are not only quick in solving them, and they are also very quick and never use a trial and error approach; in other words, they are always on the right path while solving riddles and puzzles. Most children who are adept at this task are visual and spatial thinkers and they create images of most likely results and reproduce them to create a series of answers to the tasks at hand. They are also capable of creating a series of mini-images and later join them to create a whole picture.

How to boost and nurture them - Keep feeding them puzzles, Sudoku, riddles and mystery stories so that they will sharpen their analytical and deductive skills. Take children to a real-life maze so that they enter it and find their path out. A simple magnet will help them explore the nearby surrounding while a compass and map will raise their levels of curiosity while on a trekking trail.
