What a fun post to read! Taking us back in childhood memories. We live in a much different time now. Its really crazy... Had we lived the same way now a days, we would probably be taken away from our parents! Its insane how much parents are expected to hover over their kiddos. I have a 3 1/2 year old and I try to let her explore on her own as much as possible. Shes so independent and brave! Great post!
It's great that you let her learn things on her own and you are not an over protective parent hovering over her at all times! It builds self-reliance and self-confidence!
It definitely does. I think she really needs it, especially because shes an only child. Her imagination is out of a fairy tale book! She could entertain herself for hours... without a tv or tablet! She absolutely loves being outside. Sadly we live in Texas and it gets sooo damn hot in the summer time in the afternoon and then the mosquitoes come out after that. But we spend mornings outside watering the plants and gardens and feeding our chickens kitties.
Just stopping in yo say hey. I hope all is well for you and your family. Amd hopefully we will see you soon.
