Lessons learned

I have learned a lot these past two weeks working for a friend in her day care. Friday is my last day and I must say, I am breathing a sigh of relief. Here are some of things I have learned.

• Teaching children to talk is overrated
• Children ask a lot of questions
• Many of said questions involve poopie
• Peeing in the potty is a BIG deal. They remind me this every single time they use the potty. Every. Single. Time.
• If you want kids to do something, just put "special" in front of the word. For example, "Would you like to read a book?" Nooooooo!!!! "How about if we read a very special book?" Yesss! I want to read a special book!! This has worked like a charm every time.
• Doing yoga with children is quite funny. I learned this today.
• Kids do not like to share

I'm sure there are many more things I learned this week, but I thought I would share just a few!
