When I Think of Child Development …

Over the past eight weeks, I have learned so much from my classmates in the  discussions and the Blogs.  I enjoyed reading each blog and learning from the week discussions. I am able to share what I learned with the teachers whom I work with. I would like to thank each of the my group members for all of their comments and feedback.


The following are my favorite quotes about children:

  • Herbert Hoover, 31st U.S. president  "Children are our most valuable resource."
  • Princess Diana, Princess of Wales  "Hugs can do great amounts of good, especially for children."
  • Wess Stafford  "Every child you encounter is a divine appointment."
  • English proverb  "The soul is healed by being with children." ( My Favorite)
I love this image of children playing happily.

    I love the quotes you chose. I especially love the quote by Hoover. If more people, and politicians, believed this, funding for quality early childhood programs would never be an issue!

    Debra,
    That is an adorable picture. I like it. I particularly enjoy the quote about the soul being healed by young children. I know when I am down in the dumps, being around my students and the younger children in my family helps cheer me up.

    Thank you so much for your insight on your blog and for your comments on my blog. I wish you the best in your future!
    Arica
