Something to remember

 
I found this on Michelle's blog, Mountain Top Farms, in a wonderful post about a trip to the library with her son:

"Learning only happens when a child is interested. Otherwise, it is like throwing marshmallows at his head and calling it eating."
-Anonymous
It's one of those things I've seen in action in my own family, even so I still sometimes forget.

Great quote. I've those days when I've been the one throwing marshmallows. It's a better day when they are eating the meal all by themselves!

Thanks for pointing me to the story about the books and the library. That is cool, and I agree!

I love the marshmallow quote.
