Food for Thought

This was written in the early 1900's, but how well it describes now as well!

"Indeed, I am inclined to question whether, in the interest of carrying out a system, the charming [kindergarten] teacher in not in danger sometimes of greatly undervaluing the intelligence of her children...Treasure Island, Robinson Crusoe and his man Friday (might I add superheroes and knights and such) - these are the sort of things that children play at by the month together; even the toddlers of three or four will hold their own manfully with their brothers and sisters.  And, if the little people were in the habit of telling how they feel, we should learn perhaps that they are a good deal bored by the nice little games in which they frisk like lambs, flap their fins, and twiddle their fingers like butterflies."
