Really Important Stuff My Kids Have Taught Me - Cynthia L. Copeland

nCelebrate the wisdom of the sandbox--the witty, innocent, surprising, and yet completely sensible things that kids say and do. A little book with a big heart, Really Important Stuff My Kids Have Taught Me combines deceptively simple life lessons with engaging images that together not only offer insight but inspire joy. n Kids see the world in a way that adults don't, so glimpsing life through a child's eyes offers a fresh--and often funny--perspective. Kids encourage us to be open-minded: There are a lot of different ways to get to the top of the jungle gym. To be fearless: Jump right in or you may change your mind about swimming. To aim high: Even babies grab for things just beyond their reach. To be kind to yourself: Sometimes you need a Saturday on a Wednesday. To follow your own path: If the flowers you draw don't look like anyone else's, that's good. And to stay young: Go barefoot! n n Tune in to the chatter on the playground, and remind yourself how simple everything really is.n
