Unlocking Your Child's Genius: How to discover and encourage your child's natural talents - Softcover
We all want our child to be the best they can be, but how can we discover and encourage their natural talents?
Clinical psychologist Andrew Fuller believes that every child has an innate sense of inquisitiveness, creativity and lateral thinking that forms the basis of genius. However, social conditioning and school life can lead to a desire to conform and fit in which can squash their curiosity.
For parents and grandparents, Andrew Fuller’s new book holds the way to unlock their child’s genius. No the answer is not homework, more after school tutoring or blaming the school. Yes the answer is thinking, talking and listening, and delightfully making mistakes together.
Covering the age range of 2 to 18, Andrew draws on the latest research and his own extensive work with thousands of children in private practice. He shows parents how to recognise the qualities in their child that predict genius – creativity, motivation, determination, imagination and the willingness – and build on these essential foundations regardless of which field their talents lie in.

Review:
"A marvellous resource for parents to help their children to think, to be curious, to learn to practice, and to enjoy the art of learning. Written with the same spirit of fun but underpinned by some great research, it explores whether your child thinks like a spy, a frequent flier, a fidgeter, a star trekker, a social secretary, an amplifier, or a happy wanderer—and what you can do to enhance their thinking. NO—the answer is not homework, more after school tutoring, or blaming the school. YES—the answer is thinking, talking and listening, and delightfully making mistakes together. The humanness of raising children comes through, and the impact can be most worthwhile. A book to read, dip into, come back to, and change the way you see learning. Andrew Fuller has a winner." —John Hattie, Professor of Education and Director of the Melbourne Education Research Institute at the University of Melbourne, Australia
