Whenever I see a child who thinks far more than his or her age or asks some questions, which normally should be asked by adults, I open my mouth shockingly and wonder what kind of child is this. Some children are naturally endowed with greater potential than others and this is always an advantage to them in society because they are always the center of focus and attraction anywhere they may be.
I have witnessed some amazing children with sheer intelligence than the other and all I could do or say was, "Wow, this is wonderful" and would smile and start appreciating the gift in him or her. Children are wonderful but those who display a high level of intelligence are extraordinarily wonderful. I remember when I was a very young girl and during my primary school years, there was this girl of my age who we lived together in the same compound, her name — Loveth, which I can never forget. She was such a beauty to behold and of course, with so much intelligence.
Her intelligence lies in everything and there was this part that amazed me then. She was so good at knowing the exact time of the day just by observing the weather. She would look up and when it's cloudy, dark or bright, she knows what time it was. Every child looked at her in surprise, even adults too because no one had ever seen a child with such intellectual ability before.
Another sweet child I have seen and watched her intelligence is @olawalium's daughter, Darasimi. I used to say, what a wonderful child he is blessed with. That little girl has a level of reasoning that I just want to keep watching her display her amazing abilities as her Dad keeps posting it on his status. There was a video I watched where a girl as small as she was then, I think at age 2 or less (correct me if I am wrong, KP 😊) was seen licking some biscuits instead of eating them. Her father asked, "Dara, is that how they eat biscuits?" Guess what? She responded with, "Daddy, I am licking it".
That response got me laughing and I said, "Of course, she knows biscuits are meant to be eaten."* The biscuits had some butter spread on them and I believe she only wanted to lick the butter and not eat them. So, her father was trying to make her know that the biscuits should be eaten but this sweet girl knew what she was doing.
Children can be funny with their responses sometimes and that is to show you how intelligent they are. They know some things and how they should be done and when an adult is trying to teach them, they make you understand that they know what they are doing and just want to do what they want to do. Some display amazing skills that you will only be left in shock and awe, and before you know it, you will want to pray for such a child and his or her intelligence skill.
Some are born naturally that way while some through observation and being curious to try new things display some interesting activities that are beyond their reasoning. This is why I don't stop a child when he or she is trying to get answers to some things and how they are just like this little girl of 2 years old in my neighbourhood who came to visit me and was playing with my torchlight. She kept staring at the light on it and being curious about it. I know she was trying to check how the light came out by switching the button on and off continuously. She kept trying it and it got to a point, where she wanted to dismantle the torch to find its source but had to stop her. Lol
Another time I watched her intelligence was when she sang almost all the songs from the Cocomelon channel on YouTube. I watched her in surprise at how she focused her attention on my phone and singing along to the songs. How did a little girl know all these songs offhand? It amazed me and made me conclude that she would be a fast learner and one with a high level of intelligence quotient.
Thanks for your time reading. Looking forward to your interaction.
