Motivation Mondays: Discuss quotes: "Everybody is entitled to their own opinion," Big Bird on Sesame Street. Big Bird also said, "Don't refer to me as a thing, I'm a Bird." Big bird seems to have given lots of advice. I found at least one person who said Big Bird did not prepare him for the things he was facing in life. I always thought Sesame Street was just a children's puppet show. I spent my childhood outdoors or in the barn so I did not take Sesame Street very seriously when my children were watching it, I watched Howdy Dowdy guess I'll be asking my children's input when I see them again. I suppose the most boring thing I told the kids was, "Do your homework." or "Is your homework done?" or "get your chores done." Or "if you post at the trot its a lot smoother." my daughter's input. kind of worthless now since she is no longer around horses. Also, a boring comment when going around and around in a lesson. “Every action in our lives touches on some chord that will vibrate in eternity.” – Edwin Hubbel Chapin I found this here. https://brightdrops.com/inspirational-quotes-for-kids The thing I liked about this quote was the science that is involved when a sound goes out across molecules. Actions also make a sound, traveling from one electron to the next. Proclaiming the action out across infinite space. Another quote I liked in the link was about study. Children often say they don't like school or they don't like to study, but I never knew a child who doesn't like to learn. It is just difficult for a child to put learning fun things together with reading, studying, or regular school attendance. One of the hardest things in life for any person is to follow is a daily routine. |
