Did You Know How Much Little Things Mean to Kids?

Did you know how much little things mean to kids?

Of course I have experienced that many times over the course of raising my kids, but I was reminded this week just how much little things mean to kids.

As we finished up our study on volcanoes, I gave the kids a little mini quiz. Nothing too hard and we did it orally. When the little boys were finished, I gave them a certificate that I had gotten on the internet. It showed that they were now "Junior Volcanologists"! They were so thrilled! It was nothing. It took very little time. And yet it meant a great deal to them. They were so proud, telling their cousins and grandparents how they were now "Junior Volcanologists"!
