RE: Why I let my kids get messy...
I couldn't agree more...
I treat my kids like they are adults in that sense.
Our children are sponges and will learn whatever we teach them...
that is the most beautiful thing about our children...
We can mold them however we want.
Im gonna show my 10 year old how to build a mining rig lol. My 2 year old speaks 3 fluent languages and can tell you about 1000 different truck/car models....
It looks like you are a great dad, and it's cool to see other young parents doing what I do and getting their kids involved in activities to help them grow.
EXTRA UP-YUNKS
Absolutely. We got my oldest a kid drum set at 2 years old. An adult size drum set at 3.
We let them be led by their hearts, and then once they find something they love, we encourage them in it, and help them hone that skill.
My almost 3 year old is in love with electronics. I am gonna have to figure out what to do to help him, because I think hes gonna be able to do more with tech than I can lol. Ill have to get him a build your own PC for kids or something in the next few years.
Ya I'm the same, find what they love and encourage them to be great!
They actually have some really cool "for kids" computer building and coding "toys" for kids.
We got my older son an electronics one that teaches you about electrical engineering with different connectors and wires to allocate different fuctions to whatever parts you decide to link together lol.
Gonna jump in on this comment if he love electronics do it. My son put his first computer together when he was 3 and a half. I was going to school for IT and was taking A+ and had gotten a system to practice putting together and reloading the OS on, he watched me do it a few times so one day when I was practicing the phone rang, I had every apart on it, went into the other room to answer the phone (landline) I was on the phone for about 20 minutes I came back in the room, he had the computer put together plugged in and was programing the Windows 98 SE OS onto the computer. Encourage that if he is showing an early love for it.
