If you have one of those kids with talent to spare and no outlet for it, why not get them into acting? You've been noticing for years that she does great impressions, makes funny voices or faces, and can sing you back the lyrics to a song you played a week ago in perfect pitch, now it's time to do something about it. Ask your kids if they'd like to use their talent to act or sing in front of other people, or in a movie.
Sometimes kids have a talent that they truly enjoy and never realize that it could be a hobby or pastime, or a lucrative career that could provide them with a bright future. Sometimes as parents we glaze over things and don't realize that our kids are showing us something (perhaps without knowing) that they love to do which they would blossom in if only they were encouraged to do so.
If there was ever a good time to get your kids to use their talent it is now. The internet provides numerous sites where a kid's photo and profile can be posted for review by talent agencies and casting directors. You can submit your kids for auditions without ever leaving the house!
