Summary/Abstract: This article describes selected aspects of the everyday life of families with children talented academically, artistically, or in sports. The analyses presented in this paper are based on empirical research devoted to the processes of discovering and developing children’s gifts. This research was carried out in 2018. The author realises that the results do not entirely reflect all aspects of the everyday life of these families, since such a exhaustive description might not be possible at all. Nevertheless, the thematic analysis of data originating from individual in-depth interviews enabled the author to distinguish recurring elements of everyday reality, such as the rhythm of an ordinary day, the families’ free time, and the objects present in their daily routines.
