Week 8 When I Think of Child Development

"Quotes"
The genius of play is that, in playing, we create imaginative new cognitive combinations. And in creating these novel combinations, we find what works.

Stuart Brown M.D & Christopher Varghan



Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself.

John Dewy


In play, a child is always above his average age, above his daily behavior, in play, its as though he were a head taller than himself.

Vygotsky

    I have read your comment you posted by John Dewy several times. It is such a profound comment, that I had to reread it to fully comprehend it. Great stuff. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all of your contributions throughout this course! Your discussions posts, and feedback, as well as your blogposts have been inspiring, and our class wouldn't have been the same without your strong participation! I wish you the best as you continue your journey toward achieving your degree in Early Childhood Education, and look forward to crossing paths with you in the near future!
    Best Regards,
