Child's Quote:

Children are like wet cement. Whatever falls on them makes an impression.” - Dr. Haim Ginott

Whatever we teach children and whatever they learn in early childhood will follow them throughout the rest of their lives. As early childhood educators, we have the chance and ability to make a constructive difference in the lives of both- our parents and children.

  1. Carol,
    That quote says it all. We are responsible for giving them a solid foundation to build on for the rest of their lives. We are there to encourage and teach as much as we are there to love and nurture!

  3. Carol,
    That quote is so true! My endeavor is to leave a mark (not a smudge) in the life of a child that will enhance their early development. Hopefully, they will become an adult who will remember something positive that I have given to them that has made a difference in their adult life.
