A Sagittarius child will delight you with its bright, positive attitude and will make parenting seem so much easier. Idealistic and fun loving, Sagittarius children are a delight to watch growing up even if they are likely to keep you on your toes.
Your Sagittarian is probably a bundle of energy. Hardly surprising considering that the ruling element of the sign is fire. They are especially drawn to the outdoors, going off on their own to explore the nearby woods or delighting in sports which are fast-paced and filled with action. Even if your Sagittarius child does not have great interest in conventional sports, there are bound to be other activities to express its love for action.
In fact these are the early stirrings of a Sagittarian’s famed and life-long love affair with travel. Sagittarius adults simply love packing their bags and heading off for the unknown. No destination is too boring or too dangerous for a Sagittarius if it includes the prospect of seeing new sights and meeting new people.
Sagittarius Child and Friends
One of the easiest ways to pick out a Sagittarius child is by his/her popularity among peers and classmates, as if no one can resist being attracted towards them with their naturally vivacious and optimistic personalities. So from the time your Sagittarius son or daughter is old enough to have friends, the phone will probably never stop ringing for them. They make friends easily and often choose quite an eclectic group. It stems from their love for anything new or foreign. Therefore they are often drawn towards children from other backgrounds or cultures.
Sagittarius – The Free Spirit
More than anything else, its free and independent spirit marks a Sagittarius. You will notice it lives in your child too when it takes off on its own to explore the neighborhood or begins to read books and topics which may never have been suggested by you. Personal freedom ranks at the top among all other life priorities for Sagittarians. So ensure that your little one has, if not a room then at least a specifically delineated space of its own. Also allow it the freedom to explore beliefs and values by itself instead of forcing it to follow yours. Sagittarians are really wise at heart and after exploring all options they can be usually trusted to choose the right path.
Challenges
Sometimes though this ingrained optimism can seem to lead your child to rely on luck one time too many. You may find your child skimping on exam preparations in the hope that a particular question will not figure in the test or even take unnecessary risks like going biking without protective gear in the misplaced notion that they are too much of experts to fall. Here you may have to be firm on certain rules that need to be followed as much for the sake of personal safety as for success in life.
However without enough activities to keep their energetic minds occupied, a Sagittarius can get lose interest quite soon and can become moody and irritable. So it is up to you to keep them well supplied with activities and interests so that their immense energy is spent in doing the right things.
Frankly spoken
One consequence of a Sagittarian’s free, unfettered personality is a tendency to speak their minds. While this makes for a parent-child relationship based on honesty and trust, your Sagittarius kid also needs to learn that in certain situations a little diplomacy is called for. Quite often this frankness may be inappropriate on social occasions and you may find yourself wishing your kid had more tact. However a Sagittarian’s outspoken manner is never motivated by malice and it is simply a rather forceful expression of their highly individual personality.
The Sagittarius Child and its Future
Finally remember that your Sagittarian child may not be primarily motivated by power, money or material success in life. They thrive best when ranging free in the worlds of ideas, philosophy and the essential truths of humanity. Rather they are keenly interested how a system, an institution works and how it can be bettered for mankind. The Sagittarian’s concerns are the really big issues of life. Their minds have far-thinking ability. So you may find your little Sagittarius growing up as a budding teacher, healer or a writer who travels throughout the world gathering and narrating stories of other people and cultures.
