If your child was creative at 3 did they grow up to be a creative teen/adult

[MrsMarigold]

My son aged 3.9 is extremely creative and has little interest in toys but loves craft making, cooking painting, gardening, making circuits, music etc. His teachers have all remarked on his creativity he is also extremely sympathetic to other people. He has little or no interest in superheroes. How can I nurture this creative side and if you had a child like this are they still creative and what do they do now?

yes! you've just made me think back about both of my dcs op.

ds was always creating models out of paper and cardboard.art attacks on the carpet :) now he's at university studying music.

dd always a busy toddler here there and everywhere - she loves her gymnastics and keeping fit.she has never made or created anything at home.

on how to nurture - i think they find their own way to spend time doing what they are interested in - it just flows quite naturally imo.

I guess it is character then - how interesting - my DD likes toys more but I'm not sure - she is only 2,5 so I guess it's a bit early to tell but she is very efficient and a great reader and regularly dissappears up to her room to read a book.

Mine were like this, and now seem to do really well at the arty crafty side of their high school work which seems to extend to most subjects these days, posters for language classes, designing diagrams etc for science. It's just in their nature. They like music too, but aren't really sporty at all. Don't force it, provide the materials and opportunities for him to carry on enjoying himself and have fun.
