When I Think of Child Development …

When I Think of Child Development I think of the whole child.  As I complete my early childhood development class I have a better understanding of the three domains that intervene together creating the whole child. My knowledge has deepened and my ideas have changed regarding children and their places in our future society.  Reflecting back on course resources I have chosen the following quotes.
Let us put our minds together and see what life we can make for our children.
—Sitting Bull, Hunkpapa Lakota Sioux chief
Can you only imagine what possibilities our children could explore if we as parents, teachers were all in one accord preparing their future.
Every child is gifted. They just unwrap their packages at different times.
—Anonymous
This is so true. I understand after raising two daughters and teaching early childhood.
There are no seven wonders of the world in the eyes of a child. There are seven million.
—Walt Streightiff, American author
We as adults can learn from children. They explore with open minds and curiosity. Through their eyes everything is huge.
