Developing Talents: Photography

 

 

I know our children come to us with unique personalities and dispositions and I have been thinking a lot about how to maximize and develop the skills in which my children show interest.  So, that being said, I really want to explore a new series called DEVELOPING TALENTS.  At the beginning of the month I will feature an article on how to help children develop a specific talent.

 

I love photography!  I mean…I REALLY LOVE phototgraphy.  I think this new found obsession talent it is rubbing off on my kids.  My 9 year old son and 4 year old daughter love taking pictures.  Thankfully in this age of digital technology I can delete the pictures with fingers over the lens, blinding sunlight in the background and/or super blurry people.  Recently I found a blog post that I love from Melissa at

IMAGINATION SOUP called

DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY FOR KIDS…{thus the name of the graphic}.

With simple ideas to teach children the very beginnings of photography, this article is a great place to start in the quest to raise little photographers.
