What Are The Best Activities For The Personality Of Your Child
At Toykidz we celebrate individuality and uniqueness of every child yet professionals talk about personality types that might help you choose the right toys while you shop!
The basic personality types of kids are Shy/Thoughtful, Spirited/Aggressive, and Easy/Happy. These three general categories, however, can be further broken down into several playful personalities, including adventurer, all-star, artist, builder's apprentice, cowboy, crafty kid, entertainer, artist, nature kid, playful chef, pirate, princess, smarty pants, soldier, and zookeeper. By knowing the personality type of your child, you will be more successful at suggesting activities they will enjoy.
Let's look at the four basic groups of playful kid personalities.
All-Star, Entertainer- These are kids who enjoy being in the spotlight. If they aren't putting a magic show on for their family in the living room, they are entertaining shoppers in line at the grocery store with their own choreographed song and dance number.
Activities:
The best types of activities for these kids allow them to showcase their talents, while expending a good portion of their pent up energy. Such activities include music/dance lessons, sports participation, and school/church performances.
Artist, Builder's Apprentice, Crafty Kid, Playful Chef- Creating makes these kids happy. They may like to draw, paint, sculpt, build, or cook, and thankfully with the wide variety of creative toys available today, there will be a multitude of activities parents can enjoy along with their children.
