It also gives me new ways to argue with people who think that their kids already at a young age need to be teached everything (language courses, math courses...). If my daugter asks me something I often ask her back what she thinks and often she comes up with very creative answers herself.rahelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04163997527799490294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003566511242003677.post-54419334965729713092011-04-01T03:53:53.069-04:002011-04-01T03:53:53.069-04:00This is really interesting.

She is my least artistic kid, but still very creative. Since reading it I have tried to talk to her differently when things get tough telling her she can do it, but she still is very quick to stop trying. It is an interesting read. <br /><br />I loved that first article you mentioned. How interesting. I often am more of a teacher to my kids. I am going to try more not showing them the "right" way to play with a toy. <br /><br />Thanks!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01572016720759746974noreply@blogger.com
