Here’s what you can expect in the coming year
Congratulations on another step down the road toward growing up. Sevens are delightful to be around. They’ve shed a bit more of the neediness and uncertainty of younger years, and bring enthusiasm and curiosity to everything they do. Mastering skills like reading and simple math gives your child a confidence and excitement about academics.
Sevens tend to ask lots of questions, because they’re keen observers with a big need to know about everything. They thrive on order but are better able to roll with change than they used to be.
Your 7-year-old is mature enough to form his own opinions about many things. He looks to peers and other adult authority figures to inform his ideas. But his parents firmly remain the shining lights in his universe. Sevens still like to cuddle, hold hands, and show their affection in ways that typically vanish (at least in public) over the coming years. (source)
