I’m up late (2:00 a.m. with green tea and tostitos) reading on the 8 types of personalities according to Jen Lilienstein of KidzMet.  I downloaded her book tonight, The Parent’s Playbook for Learning and am going through the types that I think my oldest 2 kids are.  Her book gives insight into choosing appropriate extracurricular activities based on their specific personality characteristics.  This is an area where I’m struggling.  I’d like to help them find areas that interest them, and that complement their traits.  I think doing so would really enhance the experience for them and may lead to other areas of interests and expertise development down the road.

Lilientstein’s book is a manual of sorts. I’d recommend reading it and consider purchasing based on what I’ve seen so far.  Her insight is giving me a sense of direction for future choices. Of course, check your local library first to see if they have a copy.  But, what a great concept to think about as you are teaching your child and trying to get them plugged into areas of value.
