Your little Lion rules everything they survey. Pride, self-confidence, optimism, and nobility seem innate. Leo thrives in the spotlight, yet their “subjects” are rewarded with an abundance of tender affection and generosity. The Small Lion simply loves to do kind things for others and to give little gifts. With a strong personality and a flair for the dramatic, but lacking the chance to be “center stage,” this natural performer may stage a performance in a rather irritating manner. Be aware of this when you notice the child insistently demanding your attention in an inappropriate place or time.
Never be dishonest with this child. Honesty and fairness matter deeply to Leo. This child possesses strong willpower and the ability to pursue a chosen goal with relentless effort until it is achieved. Yet the greatest reward is the chance to display that achievement. They will seek recognition, encouragement, and respect from others, which is equally important to them.
Provide your little Lion early opportunities to interact with other children and adults. Encourage creativity and the innate love of drama; rummage through your old wardrobe for interesting costumes or accessories—you’ll find that dressing up and playing different roles becomes your child’s favorite pastime.
Always remember that praise and encouragement toward achievement will guide this child far more effectively than criticism.
