My litlle Aiman is exposed to a lot of things since he was a baby. Gardening, cooking, carpentry, electrical gadgets, scientific principles.... just to name a few. I always believe as parents we should expose our kids to all kind of knowledge especially when they are below seven years old. That is the age when they will set up their blue print. Which blue print will be dominant depend on their exposure and the stimulus that they get.
When he was three years old I used to open up U Tube and show him how to draw car, helicopter, rose, tree etc. Watching his big sister cooking cakes, pizza and muffin, he love to bake too. Observing my husband doing some electrical jobs like repairing and wiring, he loves that too. Sitting down with me when I am gardening, he loves that too. He loves and wanted to do so many things.
Throughout 2012 his interest is hooked on science experiments. I think it all started when he follow me to see my students launching water rocket. After that event, everyday he will open up my iPad and watch tutorial on how to make a water rocket. He urged he to buy drinks so that he can use the bottle. At first I doubted his ability to assemble his own rocket but when he manage to do it on his own, I never doubted his ability anymore. I'm always off to some store to buy things he needed for his latest science experiments. Now his interest is in making simple robot. Only Allah knows what will be his next interest.
May Allah bless Aiman with knowledge and wisdom. May Allah bless us all.
