Purple makes Me Happy


 We are often caught in the trap of looking for something exceptional to experience in our work with the children. As a result of this, we can find ourselves in limbo waiting.....

I often hear comments such as, "They are not really interested in anything!"

How can that be possible, especially when we consider that in every moment children are engaged, curious, negotiating and in a state of wonder.

The key lies in our ability to listen with intent, to find those moments of awe, to find potential in all things.

In this particular moment a child said, "Purple makes me happy!"

Her teacher responded.
