The Cotsen Children's Library segment was particularly moving and a bit sad. Because of what is happening in US libraries today, I hope children of coming generations will still have ALL of those books to read. As well as the opportunity to see Schroeder Cherry's magnificent puppets and their stories of history.
So fun. I have several British Pelham puppet marionettes and Steiff hand puppets from my childhood. I’m 69. My resolution for 2024?is do more are and sculptor. I have 2 little grand nieces and a grand nephew that I’m instilling a love of crafts in. 🥰❤️🙏🏼🐹
What inspiring examples of adults who have not lost their connection to the child within....full of creativity, whimsy, and natural intelligence. Thank you for this showcase of humans at their best.
We teach children NOT to hit and NOT to destroy. I prefer the idea of piñatas as art. I would like to see the hitting and destroying phased out. Teach your children well. Teach them better than your generation was taught. There are much better ways to “ vanquish evil” and those could be taught instead. Besides, do children really need more candy? I think not.
@@ediewall6360 I didn't say anything of that sort. So in that regard No I do not think that ! That is very important.. But both things can happen together at the same time !! Kids can have fun breaking open the Pinatas and being taught what doing so represents and the tradition behind it!! And also ket them collect, eat, and enjoy the candy!! Of course they don't really need the candy or (any more candy). But its not as though they are doing it every day of the week!! So it why I commented "Can we just let Kids be kids while they are, because in terms of a persons life time, the time that they can be and are just children is very minimal compared to the time they are no longer children!!
We teach children not to hit each other, or the cat, dog, or animals etc. and not to destroy certain things. Should we also teach them never to use a hammer to hit the nail in the wall (toys are made with little hammers and tools to mimic that action too). There are children in the world who help with the household chores and clean the rugs by taking them outside and hit them with the broom to get all the dirt out; I guess that could instill violence in a children or can send a mixed message, right? And those cute chocolate boxes with treats inside that you use a miniature wood hammer to hit and break to reveal the treat inside, I guess that is could bad too because your hitting and destroying the box. And when you take down a wall in your house to increase the room size, you are hitting and destroying that wall; that could be viewed as bad too and sending your child the wrong message, right? I was a child once and I hit a piñata at a party and it never taught me to hit people or hit other objects, or destroy things. It was the parenting that taught me what not to hit and what not to destroy. I hope you're the kind of person that can pause and reflect on how silly your comment is.

I love the Noah’s ark experience. The act of play can be a learning experience for children and adults. Amazing use of materials.

Ohhhhh now.... Can't we just let kids be kids?!?!
Especially since in a persons life the time as a child is sooo Short and Fleeting!?!?
@@DOCDOCFLAMINGOS So you do not think, that how adults guide children, what and how they teach them is important?
