Talents show who you really are, what you like to do and what gives you pleasure. Here, in the Brainport region, we look for that which gives you pleasure. That starts from childhood. We believe that fun is the basis for job happiness and therefore success.
So in this region, we take having fun seriously. Especially at times that determine your child's future. It's so often about having to, performing, what do you want to study? But what really makes a child happy? That should determine a study choice. Brainport for Education helps to start the conversation about joy!

When children are challenged to use their talents, it creates fun. The combination of talent and fun ultimately contributes to the right choice towards later, towards the future, towards an advanced education.
Young people.... talking to them can sometimes be quite a challenge. Often, you don't get much more than 'yes', 'no', 'duh', and 'don't care!'
Despite all good intentions, something can always go wrong in a conversation between parents and their child. Here are some common pitfalls, along with ways to avoid them:
Finally, don't forget to laugh! Even in a serious conversation, humour and a little provocation take the edge off. You can be sure that having fun together will make your child happy too.
