A child's imagination is a powerful
and unique thing. It's not only
used to make up stories and games, it's a key factor in their creative
thoughts and can define the type of education, career, and life they
have. With this imagination comes a cultural literacy; fairy tales often
include different cultures and ways of doing things. They also teach
children right from wrong. Standing strongly within fairy tales of magic
horses, glass
slippers, and wolves blowing down houses is an underlying purpose. It's
in a fairy tale's DNA to have a strong
moral lesson, a fight between good & evil, love and loss, and these
lessons rub off on children.
This month, we are proud
to focus our attention on fairy tales and nursery rhymes as we help each
child at our center grow, learn, and play!
