Sharing Books
>> Monday, April 20, 2009
So.. I took in a bunch of children’s books for the kids in my group at the day care.
The kids really liked them…although some were more popular than others.
One touchy-feelie book was especially popular. Two of the kids were fighting for it - and then one of them had a ~brilliant~ idea.
He ripped the book in half and gave half to the other child.
So - what would you do?
Get him in trouble for ripping the book? Or leave it alone, because at least he was being a good sharer.
Kids are ~great~
I love this! It's kind of a Solomonic solution, isn't it? I wouldn't have a clue what to do in response.
Um... I think, despite the urge to share, I'd still have to help the kids work on this...
I'm too much of a bibliophile to do anything else
