Kids Say the Darndest Things



Did you ever really listen to what the children around you are saying?  If you have been too busy to heat what they have to say, maybe you should slow down a little bit.  I don't have any children of my own, but I work with 25 third graders every day.  One thing I can tell you, if you need an honest answer, just ask a third grader.  They haven't quite learned what a "filter" is, and they don't usually learn until it's too late that maybe they should have used a better choice of words.

Regardless, their innocence is something that is lost as they gain more time on this Earth.  Children begin to learn what is socially acceptable, and life has a way of diminishing the innocence. I have been loving Soul Pancake's latest series: Little Kids, Big Questions.  Today I'm posting their video about beauty.  Kids will honestly tell you what they think is beautiful/attractive, and how someone is beautiful.  I find joy in watching these kids giggle and laugh as they discuss topics that matter to all of us.  I hope you enjoy their video tonight.  I hope it brings a smile to your face.
