Atypical Preschool Adventures

Today he studied geography while playing in the small stream running down the side of the street in front of our house. He studied physics and engineering as he damned the stream, made pools and let the water go again. He practiced dexterity and manipulation, using rudimentary tools of pinecones and sticks to move the leaf debris (mama told him not to touch the water). He even honed his investigative skills in seeking the source of the water. And I was delighted at how easily he came up with the answer.

Ah, yes, these are our pre-school days!

Peacefully BuZzInG,
