Six Things to Include in Your Child's Day (for Grown Ups, too!)


I have this posted on my bulletin board in the kitchen:

Six Things to Include in Your Child's Day
1. Meaningful Work
2. Imaginative Play
3. Good Books
4. Beauty- art, music, nature
5. Ideas to ponder and discuss
6. Prayer

I copied this from a friend but I know it is derived from the teachings of Charlotte Mason. Charlotte was an educator in England in the early 20th century. Her motto for for learning was "Education is an atmosphere, a discipline, a life".
