It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.-Frederick Douglass
How true is this, right? Isn't this why there is such a rush to get all of these new preschools open, isn't this why now, we are trying to "catch" our kids earlier and earlier? If we start out strong with our kids, strong Pre-K will translate through prepubescent, through adolescent, and through adult hood. Priceless quote.

Love this, ask any teacher what they push and its vocabulary building, this needs to start young. Again, a strong foundation can not be broken. I think that this way of looking at vocabulary building is head on, its fantastic...made me get up and dance around the room!

My Favorite children's book: Where the Wild Things Are- Maurice Sendak
Sendak's book captures the imagination of children perfectly! It is simplistic, multidimensional, intriguing, mature, funny, relatable, and part of the canon of must-read children's story.
and
Alexanders, Horrible, Terrible, No Good, Very Bad Day-Judith Viorst
I love this book because kids know that they can have a bad day and how to handle it. As an adult, I love this book because I have days like this that I need to read this book.
