All Entries: What I Learned From Children
Wow, what a great topic, y’all! Who, I ask you, hasn’t learned something from the smaller-sized versions of ourselves? Even if you don’t have kids of your own, there’s plenty to learn from when we were kids ourselves, right?
Anyhoo – a big ol’ Yeehaw! is in order for the participants in this month’s groupwrite project: What I Learned From Children. In fact, we had [updated again] 19 entries this time around! (sound of crowd cheering enthusiastically)
So take a look at the list below, in which all the entries are listed in the order in which I found ‘em. Do yourself a favor and drop by each writers’ site and start a conversation, why don’cha? You’ll be glad you did.

Middle Zone Musings is a comfortable place to stop, have a cup of coffee, swap a few stories and share practical ideas for the real world. I don't ask for much, just a bit of your brain every now and then. Have a seat, take a load off, and relax...
Hello Robert. Thanks for this opportunity. It’s a great way to bring distant corners of the world together. I’m looking forward to chewing on this latest set!
Thanks, Robert! What a wonderful way to discover new people, interesting blogs, and fresh perspectives.
Great theme Robert. Thanks again for the invite.
Cheers,
Todd
@Paul – Yep; that’s one of the things I enjoy the most about blogging in general and WILFs in particular – it provides a means to bridge the distance that normally stands between any two people in the world.
@Jeanne – Hey, thanks, for helping to make WILF a success, Jeanne!
@Todd – It just wouldn’t be the same without U, Todd! A tip o’ the hat to ya!
Whew! Those entries were great! Some had me teary eyed.. I wish i knew it earlier so that i could join too.. Indeed, we have learned a lot from our childhood.. And now, it’s amazing that i still learn something from my daughter! Life is good..
@Jane – Hey, I’m glad you liked them! Hopefully you’ve discovered some new friends, too. AND… you’re welcome to join us next time!
This is a wonderful post with links. As most teachers know, you learn as much from your students. For example, I once posted about 10 things I learned from my students. One was be sensitive to their individual perspectives and skills. Together you can make real learning happen.
@Paul – My only question is, how come you stopped at only 10? I bet you could easily make a list of at least a hundred!
Hey, a hat tip to ya for dropping by! Maybe you’ll care to join us for the next WILF? You’d be more than welcome!
A funny post. I know that a 3 year old boy who is told not to go outside and play in the dirt will bring the dirt inside, mix it with water and build roads on the new living room carpet.
@David – Ain’t it the truth, David! That’s sorta along the same lines as buying a great toy for your child and they have more fun with the box than the actual toy!
