Raising a Creative Child - 145

CONNIE ALBERS
About this episode

Our family has a wonderful announcement to share with the world! My son recently won an Emmy for cinematography for his part in a documentary called Challenge Accepted about a young girl named Faith-Christina. Every child is different, but I want to share with you some ways in which we went about raising a creative child who went on to win an Emmy.

 

This is the beginning of a series of episodes about raising different kinds of kids to adulthood and preparing them for their desired careers. There's no right way to walk this path, but there are good practices and wise choices. I can share through what I know about Strengths Finders and personalities some of how and why we did what we did. Read the full show notes with links here: https://conniealbers.com/raising-a-creative-child
