This is such an important aspect of child's play, and it was brought home to me when my children were very young and they began to make families with special pebbles from the yard and groups of spice jars in the kitchen, etc.<BR/><BR/>I learned not to comment on their play because it interrupted the rhythm of their work and made them self-conscious, and it would take a while for them to fall back into the magic of their imaginations.TheSingingBirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09497187225440471996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219647485942184800.post-53688345930676915552008-08-01T15:19:00.000-05:002008-08-01T15:19:00.000-05:00Beautiful and so so true :)Beautiful and so so true :)WoolComesAlivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14063231381800188696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219647485942184800.post-48374488636112184632008-08-01T13:21:00.000-05:002008-08-01T13:21:00.000-05:00Wonderful article Nushkie, I loved reading it. ^_^...Wonderful article Nushkie, I loved reading it. ^_^LittleElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12195137299792900923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219647485942184800.post-58886160037419753682008-08-01T10:20:00.000-05:002008-08-01T10:20:00.000-05:00I love watching my kids take a toy and using it fo...I love watching my kids take a toy and using it for something other than its "purpose."
