Not Little Adults

So many parents these days want to get their children started in all sorts of structured activities at a young age. This is nothing short of stealing their childhood. Children so need authentic natural play, but many parents think that real play is a waste of time. Nothing could be further from the truth, children are meant for natural play and it's a must for good development and a happy well adjusted adulthood. Children are not little adults, their minds are wired to think like adults. Forcing them to is very detrimental and brings lasting harm.
