Celebrating the Child!

"A three year old child is a being who gets almost as much fun out of a fifty-six dollar set of swings as it does out of finding a small green worm." ~Bill Vaughan

"You are worried about seeing him spend his early years in doing nothing. What! Is it nothing to be happy? Nothing to skip, play, and run around all day long? Never in his life will he be so busy again. " ~Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Emile, 1762

"Every Child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up." Pablo Picasso

"The prime purpose of being four is to enjoy being four - of secondary importance is to prepare for being five. " ~Jim Trelease, The Read-Aloud Handbook, 1985

"While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about."
~Angela Schwindt

"There are no seven wonders of the world in the eyes of a child. There are seven million. " ~Walt Streightiff

"There are children playing in the streets who could solve some of my top problems in physics, because they have modes of sensory perception that I lost long ago" J. Robert Oppenheimer

Physics Teacher: Isaac Newton was sitting under a tree when an apple fell on his head and he discovered gravity..isn't that wonderful?
Student: Yes, Sir! if he had been sitting in class looking at books like us, he wouldn't have discovered anything!
