Awesome
🙂
I adore this. I’ll keep it in my mind because this would be awesome to do at my library. I may do it this summer for our summer reading! Thanks to much for this!
My pleasure.
Liked it !!!
I’m glad!
What a great idea. I think I’ll pinch this to try out in school.x
I know!
i’m sorry that i miss that. Must check my e-mail more often…
Cool, eh?
The children don’t have all that learning, their minds are free.
Child like thoughts are creative surpassing first two steps, then comes school and learning distorting. i learnt this from a child…
I don’t know that it’s school, so much as it is hormonal, Chris. Most children enjoy learning and exploring both in school and out, but with puberty comes such concern about ‘cool’ that often means giving up that joy to seem more grown up. I suspect the happiest adults are those who never felt the need to grow up, and have always felt free to play in the ways that nurtured their souls. It’s a bit rough during those early teen years, but it’s free sailing before/after that!
Wisdom beyond your years, how isit that you come to a creative conclusion?
Question; when right the sentence is in my head only when typing i leave out words? why?
Beyond my years? >>snort<< I'm 6 years younger than you, Chris! lol I'm going to chuckle about that line all day.
Answer: your fingers aren't as fast as your brain!
