7 Skills That Every Child Needs For A Bright Future There are plenty of real-life technical skills that children can learn at an internationally acclaimed online learning platform like DIYA (Do It Yourself Academy). However, what really brings out the best in these technical skills are certain life-skills that every human will need to use throughout their life, their education, and their career! These sooner children learn these skills, the richer the quality of their life will become, and their potential is unleashed. What are these skills? Allow us to explain.
1. Critical Thinking • Critical thinking is a vital skill that is necessary for any profession that requires the mind to make connections that aren’t necessarily apparent at first. The ability to take in information and process it in multiple ways is a skill that is a powerful advantage when taught early.
2. Varied perspectives • Children often expand their knowledge of their world ten times faster when they are subjected to perspectives on ideas that they are not aware of. Looking at things from another perspective is not a common occurrence in children and will stimulate improved mental growth when imparted early.
3.Focus, Learning, and discipline • The ability to focus is the root of learning and a partner to discipline, something every child needs in order to develop healthy habits and an informed mind. When children manage to develop this skill, their concentration and ability to retain information increases greatly.
4. Interest • This is something that both a teacher and a parent must guide a child through. Showing a child something interactive, and gentle coaxing from both sides can help a child develop an interest in certain subjects, or learning as a whole. The moment a child falls in love with learning, their lives are guaranteed to be interesting.
6. Communication • Communication is not a naturally acquired skill. It requires social interaction and constant monitoring when it comes to children. Teachers and parents are both responsible for a child’s communication skills. Normally, the parents will ensure the child has a firm grasp of the basic language and the teacher must then help the children further enrich their vocabulary.
7. Problem-Solving • While similar to critical thinking, problem-solving is a skill that differs slightly in that while critical thinking has a broader application to life, problem solving is a thought process that can help you work your way around any problem. • However, this skill must be developed from an early age, with Do-It-Yourself projects from which the children can learn by actually practicing an experiment, process, or code.
