Education of Children

Now that F is able to walk everywhere, she doesn’t want to stop (which actually makes me really happy, unlike some other parents who complain about this issue). F is free to move and touch almost everything around the house. As she grows and gains more confidence she shows her temperament in different ways.  Most of the time she has a hard time understanding that there are things she is not allowed to do such as: Hitting the glass door with her toys or materials Hitting her friends with her  xylophone’s mallet Grabbing the toys from her friend’s hands (Over and over.

Riding in the back of a pick-up truck or a van - loose on a warm day was always a great fun.  You drank water from the garden hosepipe and NOT from a bottle. You shared one soft drink with four friends
