Philosophy of children

            From working with children, we begin to realize that every child grows and learns in all different ways and at his/her own pace. They tend to develop through their peer interactions, teachers, and the environments that they are in. Preschool is a place where children will learn the skills that they will need to use in their everyday life. .
             In my view, I see each child as a unique individual. I allow for growth and expansion of each child's individuality. I believe that a child grows through a variety of hands on experiences, and encourage children to partake in daily activities that advance their minds and bodies. I am a strong believer of imagination and creativity for the children as well.
             The place where children will begin to learn is at their home with their parents and the rest of their family. The way that the parents may help is that they can start by reading them a story every night from as early as they are born. Also, one should begin talking and showing affection to the child as soon as they can feel the baby developing inside of them because this can help them develop appropriately throughout the future. If the child has other siblings in the family, then the kids will learn verbally just by listening to them. A family has many responsibilities and they should be teaching their child manners, respect for elders, and their behavior. Also, talking to the parents each day about their child's day is important. You can learn by talking to the parent about the child's ability to do certain things.
             There are many components a preschool should have. One of the main things is that they should have teachers with many varieties of talents, assets, and opinions. When in a classroom, teachers should expose the children to many different cultures. That way when the children are older, they will have built tolerance for one another and they will be comfortable with each other. The things that can help make a teacher much better in what they do is that they should know how to make learning fun, so that the children want to learn and pay attention.
