"Values are not taught but caught"
(I painted this cute boy in corel-photo-paint)These were the words of wisdom that I learnt at a workshop for parents at my daughter's school this week. And it is my 6 words for 6WS at ShowMyFace.
The following quotation expresses this beautifully.
"There are little eyes upon you and they're watching night and day.
There are little ears that quickly take in every word you say.
There are little hands all eager to do everything you do.
And a little child who's dreaming of the day he'll be like you."
There are little ears that quickly take in every word you say.

hmmmm, interesting thought. I do believe modeling behavior is one avenue of teaching.
ReplyDeleteA little teaching don't hurt though.
ReplyDeleteLots of wisdom behind your words.
ReplyDeleteSweet...we had at workshop too...I'm watching my 1 yr old as he watches me. Everything!
ReplyDeleteI've seen this quote before, and it is so true. Thanks for a great reminder. I've copied and pasted it to send to family.
ReplyDeleteHi Sema, this reminds me of "Little pitchers have big ears."
ReplyDeleteYou do good with that Corel-photo-paint.
Your cute boy wants me to wish that I
could paint just a little bit like you do.
Happy (late) 6WS! Thank you for peeking
in on mine, I am sorry I am late in
returning your nice comment.

Such a cute little man you painted! And such wise words. It's true - we never know who is watching and following our example.
ReplyDeleteThanks for playing 6WS!
