The global economy could be benefited by investing in childhood skills

 A recent publication from the World Economic Forum highlighted the following five skills that present-generation kids need to develop in order to be successful in the future:


1.  Creativity - The ability to solve problems in meaningful ways and to think imaginatively across disciplines.



2. Digital skills -The ability to master new forms of digital techs especially algorithm design and data handling.



3. Collaboration -The ability to work with others to perform a complex task and to adjust your actions in relation to other people's needs.




4. Global citizenship -A universal respect for people from other cultures and willingness to embrace diversity, equality, and inclusion.




5. Environmental Stewardship -Understandings of the fragility and finiteness of natural ecosystems and how we can interact with them in sustainable ways 



Children's skills may contribute to their development into successful, well-rounded adults and may also contribute to the global economy, as well as creating strong, cohesive, and sustainable communities.

Despite my busy schedule, I managed time for Neel's (my son) bedtime.  Neel's bedtime started at 8:30-9:30pm. Before fall asleep both of us interact about numerous topics.
