A good question for the curious.
Verbal fascination for the child beginning to explore the world.
An annoying question when it confronts a parent’s knowledge of the world.
Why does the moon look different tonight?
Why are there big people and little people?
Why are there cars and bicycles and buses and why don’t we all ride horses?
A child’s curiosity about the world opens with the first tiny curl of a newborn’s finger.
New young spirits expand as curiosity is answered and nurtured.
Questions and answers begin a dialogue with life and living in baby talk and baby steps.
“There is frequently more to be learned from the unexpected
questions of a child than the discourses of men,……..”
~ John Locke
