Some children are musical prodigies while others memorize their time tables by the age of 2. Some kids are born athletes, and others paint like Monet. So what talents do your children posess?

My sister is the most grownup like, kindest person ever and I think this is a great gift.
My nephew on the other hand is extremely smart. He's only four years old and can type really fast, knows the whole alphabet and can read and talk really well. He's also very comprehensive, patient, and loving.
My oldest son sang in school and is very good with computers and now is learning to play guitar he is smart even though at this time he is not applying himself. And is very giving.
My youngest is a dancer and has been for about 2 yrs now he sings and he acts as well. He is very good at video games and he is also taking guitar lessons. He is very good at memorizing things from movies and acting them out. He also is very good at impersonations.
I will say this all 3 of my children are very gifted, talented and creative and I am so proud of them.

My son is starting with the flute this year, so we shall see.
My daughter can 'see' through people immediately.
My youngest is 3 and yet to be determined unless you call mass destruction a talent!!!
Our oldest, Gunnar, has a beautiful way of reminding us that there is ALWAYS another way to look at the obvious!
Next is Glenn, who is one of our many performers in the house, even brushing her teeth is oscar worthy!
Then comes Emma, who is the dress-up queen of the world! There is never a situation in life that can't be handled simply by changing clothes!
Jared, who reminds us that the hard way sometimes hurts, but the scars make us look pretty tuff!
And our youngest, Matt, who is a true affermation that sometimes bad things happen for good reasons!
My son's greatest gift is his humor - equally intelligent and gifted in academics and music to my daughter, he can diffuse any disagreement with a quick one-liner that has everyone laughing and calming down. He just has this ability to draw people to himself and what he says and instantly gain respect in a very quiet, humorous way.
Actually, they should go into government - we need more people like that! : - )
My son on the other hand loves animals to death and doesn't understand why they all want to be by his sister and not him. It upsets him greatly. But his gifts lay elsewhere. He is only in the 2nd grade, but can throw together a powerpoint presentation complete with visual and sound effects in less time than I've seen anyone his age do something like that. He is very good in math and also loves to read. It's not often that you come across someone who is good with and enjoys both math and reading. Usually if you're good at math in school, you hate English, and vice versa. I was definitely one of those who would do very well in english, literature, etc. and needed tutors to get me through the math. I have a feeling he is the whole package where intelligence is concerned and I can't wait to see what he does with himself. Of course the trade off is that he's borderline ADHD (not so much the attention part, but definitely the hyperactive part) and has trouble keeping still and getting good conduct grades in class (although his other grades are straight A's). We're working on that.
He is also turning out to be very good at Karate. He's only been taking for a few months and is already ready for his second belt test!
My little girl is 16 months & she can say Happy ;o) I have a video on here of her doing that. She is a little screamer! I think she will be a singer someday haha. A Mariah Carey of sorts LOL. She loves to hum & I think she will do well.
She can also count to at least eight in Spanish (thank Dora, Diego, and Manny for that)
