For my teaching and leadership practiceI really often hear the question of the “Fidget” children's team: “Will my child become a star?” ... I think that it is important for any parent to start not with this question, which is inherently inadmissible, but with observation of your baby. After all, it is up to the parent to bring out the makings of a musician, artist, athlete, aircraft designer and help them develop. It is important to create the necessary creative environment from the very birth of your child, which later will be able to cultivate in him a craving for some kind of creativity.

For example, when I was pregnant, I read aloudGreek myths, Russian fairy tales, read about little Julia Caesar. And when Kirill was born, I put him classical music as a background 40 minutes before bedtime and read fairy tales to her. Capture your child - tell about famous personalities who have achieved great success in life! And, of course, at the same time look at his reaction, listen to what questions the child asks in response. And to more clearly determine the interest of your child, reduce it to the "production". Surely among your friends there are those who are associated with interesting professions. How does a dentist work, how do researchers work in laboratories, ask after a theatrical production to go through the backstage of the theater - show the child how the work process is organized from the inside. I am quite sure that all children, without exception, are gifted with something, God has awarded each of them something. It is only important to see his craving.
I watch a lot of kids that come tous to the castings. For me, the most important role is played by the look, organic and scenic charisma of the child. And also his attitude. If a child has a fire in his eyes, if he is ready to move mountains, if he really wants to achieve his goal, he will achieve it. And if the gaze went out, the shoulders slumped, the head was lowered and the kid shows with his appearance: “Leave all me alone,” then neither hearing nor voice will save him. Useless. Our task is to take a child who is really comfortable with public attention, who has a disposition for musical ear, sense of rhythm, recitation of poems. Therefore, learning focuses on developing the child’s own talents. We work with his personality. It is important to develop children comprehensively: stage speech, so that they can formulate their thoughts, musical literacy, so that they can purely intonate, choreography is classical and modern, so that they develop their physical plastic and are relaxed. It so happens that I ask a young soloist: “What do you dream to become when you become an adult?” If he answers me: “Star”, I will definitely correct him. After all, it is important to understand the difference between the profession and the result. Becoming an artist or a star is the result of creative development. Therefore, I strongly recommend that all parents motivate their child to get a profession, tune in to work hardness, and not abstractly dream of a stellar career. After all, the best profession is to become a good person. And recognition, as a result of your work, be sure to follow!
