Careers, Dreams & Big Goals: Helping Your Child Explore What’s Possible

🎯 Post 5:

What do you want to be when you grow up?

That question sparks imagination — but at Genius Reading, we also want it to spark opportunity. We believe every child should be exposed to real-world careers, bold dreams, and the steps it takes to get there.

🧠 Why Career Readiness Matters Early

Studies show that kids start forming career ideas as early as age 7. The earlier they explore what’s possible, the more confident and curious they become.

👷 What We’re Doing

Our books and games introduce fun characters with big dreams — like Reggie Raccoon saving up to be a chef, entrepreneur, or artist. Through story-based learning, kids learn about:

• Different job types (STEAM, trades, creative arts)

• Skills they can practice now

• Earning income doing what they love

🎯 Helping Your Child Dream Big

The goal isn’t to force a job title — it’s to build confidence, critical thinking, and purpose. Every Genius Reading story invites your child to imagine what they can do and who they can become.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family Activity Idea: Have a “Dream Day.” Ask your child what their dream job would be — then explore books, videos, or real-life people in that field. Bonus: Let them draw or write about it!

Big dreams start small — and we’re here to help them grow. 💼✨
