So what do kids teach us???

What are the most common things that you see in children?

No no...I am not labeling them - it's just about a few things that you will significantly notice when you are around children -

  1. They are "The Most Bussssssssyyyyyyy" people - They are the most busy people you can ever find anywhere - look around - observe - do you see them quiet anytime? Well, probably only when they are asleep (but you never know the action happening behind the closed eyes ;))
  2. They put up with our constant tantrums - Yes!! I mean it - how much do we go behind them all the time constantly - Get up, get ready, time, finish  your milk, did you brush, wear your shoes, run, eat, write, learn, come, go, wait, sit, sleep, watch, listen, respect, bye, say hello, wear properly, don't spill, see there.......;) aaaah!!! don't weeee??? I know completely understandable - yes we need to :).....They still, put up with all this day in day out - Think about it :)...Thankfully they don't complain isn't?? 
  3. Friendships - "I don't like you!!!" "Waaaaaaaaa"....You see your child crying - screaming at a friend and the very next min you see both of them merrily playing around :)....Infact, they even go hitting, biting & hurting eachother physically & emotionally -  horribly but still they are friends again...Something very difficult for us - we have bad fight with a friend & we come up with all the list of things from past, present & predict the future - & they are immediately on our black list..."No More A Friend" ;)...I can relate completely being like this :(...With kids - they fight & forget - it's just for the moment - I was wild at you or you can be - nothing else matters...
  4. Constantly learning, processing, doing, curious, exploring & doing a loooooooooot each day - You think your's is the most hectic, demanding & exhaustive day with lot of things you are doing, multitasking, working on deadlines, bosses etc ???... ;),,,You have got the answer - just be in the shoes of a child - say a 3 or 4 year old or any child for that matter (yeah do you see that all the above of our hectic day fits in completely ;))
  5. Amazingly adaptable, Open, Non -Judgmental & Fun unlimited - They are packed with all this isn't???  - & they add in an abundance of  Love :)

The Things We Steal From Children by Dr.John Edwards

Here is something so very close to all the things that I have learned from Ratnesh and during TTT & from everyone at Amable who have helped me to be here in this profound journey with children.... A poem by John Edwards and his wife Sandra Russell about "The Things We Steal From Children" - very powerful Enjoy reading these beautiful lines- That will surely leave you thinking & reflecting :) If I am always the one to think of where to go next. If where we go is always the decision of the curriculum or my curiosity and not theirs, If motivation is mine, If I always decide on the topic to be studied, the title of the story, the problem to be worked on, If I am always the one who has reviewed their work and decided what they need, How will they ever know how to begin? If I am the one who is always monitoring progress. If I set the pace of all working discussions, If I always look ahead, foresee problems and endeavour to eliminate them, If I swoop in an
