A BRIEF HISTORY ABOUT KIDS GOT TALENT SHOW
Nigeria is blessed with an abundance of raw talents; gifted children who need a little push to make a difference in this world of opportunities.With a population of over 150million, and about 40% of the population children, we believe it is of significant importance to encourage creativity in this fraction of the population. Research has shown that music is an important part of life and that participation in a school music program often leads to better grades and test scores. Music helps a child’s overall intellectual development. While laying morally excellent foundation for kids’ engagement and empowerment Kids Got Talent is an educative, entertaining project of Divine Octaves specifically designed for children between aged 4-13years who can sing any kind of song, play any musical instrument (piano, sax, trumpet, drums, violin, guitar etc.), dance to any kind of rhythm, have a special kind of talent. This family styled discovery Project is aimed at providing a platform to discover, groom and showcase their talents in the Categories of Musical Instrumentals, Voice, Dance, and other talents available The Show allows for participation through registration, after which the participant goes through the auditioning, and then the next level if successful. .
