Young people need models, not critics.
Don’t limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
Do not tell them how to do it. Show them how to do it and do not say a word. If you tell them, they will watch your lips move. If you show them, they will want to do it themselves.
Free the child’s potential, and you will transform him into the world.
Teach by teaching, not by correcting.
Within the child lies the fate of the future.
Children can change the world.
There’s no such thing as a kid who hates reading. There are kids who love reading, and kids who are reading the wrong books.
The home is the child’s first school, the parent is the child’s first teacher, and reading is the child’s first subject.
You can’t be what you can’t see.
Wisdom is justified of her children.
Children are like buds in a garden and should be carefully and lovingly nurtured, as they are the future of the nation and the citizens of tomorrow.
Play is the work of childhood.
And if those children are unresponsive, maybe you can’t teach them yet, but you can love them. And if you love them today, maybe you can teach them tomorrow.
If children feel safe, they can take risks, ask questions, make mistakes, learn to trust, share their feelings, and grow.
Sharing is Caring – Teaching our children to share is teaching them compassion and love.
Reading is important, because if you can read, you can learn anything about everything and everything about anything.
The more healthy relationships a child has, the more likely he will be to recover from trauma and thrive. Relationships are the agents of change and the most powerful therapy is human love.
Childhood is not a race to see how quickly a child can read, write and count. It is a small window of time to learn and develop at the pace that is right for each individual child. Earlier is not better.
We not only respect babies, we demonstrate our respect every time we interact with them. Respecting a child means treating even the youngest infant as a unique human being, not as an object.
