Note to Parents: What’s Worth Imitating?
May 2nd, 2010 | Author: Shannon
Taken a few weeks ago as we played in the mud.
We spent the whole weekend outside: playing in a homemade mud puddle, racking leaves, climbing trees, and digging in the garden.
We left home for groceries (bummer we needed to do that!)
It was so delightful.
At a time in my life, I might have thought I didn’t “do” anything. Now, feel good unplugging from the craze of “doing” for long enough to really feel the joy of this moment.
Note to parents: in order for kids to connect with nature, we need to show them how… we need to get dirty, play joyfully in the mud, kick a ball, dance in the sunshine, and sing with the birds.
Kids learn through imitation.
What did you do this weekend worth imitating?
