If your child has a very creative side and is always using their imagination to its fullest, you have probably already imagined them in a creative career once they are older. Do you have an idea of the kind of job your child might be interested in?
You might be able to get an idea based on what their current creative hobbies are, such as storytelling, doodling, or dressing up.
Here are some awesome creative careers that you might want to inspire your child to go into.
FIlmmaking
Does your child love the latest Hollywood blockbuster or Disney animation? Well, imagine how amazing it would be if they were producing high stakes films such as these later in their life. If you are lucky, they may even invite you to their premiers! If your child does show an interest in film and cinema, then it is worth them taking up film studies at college to try to gain a basic understanding of filmmaking. If they have the equipment to do so, they could also try to make their own videos and short films in their spare time, which will help them create a portfolio.
Writing
If you love reading stories together with your child, then you might inspire them to want to be a writer or author. Another sign that this is what they are destined to become is if they are constantly coming up with their own stories and characters. You should try to encourage them to write as much as possible, as this will help them develop their writing and storytelling skills. Once they have some good stories, they can start to enter them into short-story competitions. When they go onto high school, it’s important that they work hard in their English classes so that they can develop their writing even further.
Art Curator
You don’t have to be an artist to work in art. If your kids love art but aren’t that interested in creating their own artworks, they might want to think about becoming an art curator. Curators work in galleries and decide on which exhibitions and exhibits to bring into the space. They will also decide on how all of the exhibits will be showcased and the exact layout of the exhibition. It’s the curator’s job to ensure that all gallery visitors learn about each artist and their work on display, so it’s a great jobs for people who want to spread their love of art.
Fashion Designer
If your child is constantly putting on different clothes and costumes and trying to dress up with you and your partner’s clothes, then they might make a good fashion designer when they are older. They will be able to take a fashion course at college to learn this trade. Eventually, their clothes might appear on the top catwalks in Paris and Milan!
