How It's Made

How It's Made

Encourage curiosity in your children via everyday objects.

As you have probably experienced, kids ask questions about nearly everything, and we don't always know the answers. But chances are, we can find them! Today, take a few minutes to talk to your kids about how something is made. If you're not sure, look it up or watch a show for inspiration. When we encourage our kids' curiosity, we allow them to always seek answers and hopefully arrive at the truth. Curious and creative minds soon become world-changers as they see a problem or need and want to know why it exists and then how to fix it.

I call it a sense of wonder and it is part of being a child. In my classroom (I am public school teacher) I try not to give answers but help students learn how to frame questions and become beacons of learning.
