I think that's a great idea to let him choose what he wants to try from Pinterest. I am also amazed by my children's choices, because they aren't ever what I would have chosen! So cool having these little humans to raise and teach…and to learn from! Thanks for your comment!

Me too. That's why I am always working to get my children to love reading as much as I do. With all of the electronics around nowadays, it can sometimes be really hard to get them to love books!

I couldn't agree more. Thank you for this post. I am a mother of a 4yr old boy who is naturally curious. I always let him try what he wants to (in the reasonable things) and I am really glad with what he learns from it. Besides knowing I am doing well at encouraging my kid, I also learn a lot about fairies 🙂 I think my son will like to learn about them too. We are on Easter vacations, and we are trying all kinds of experiments. He chooses from pinterest what he wants to try (from a particular board I created) and I always get amazed by his choices! Sorry for my english – I'm a portuguese reader 🙂

These are great reminders! My favorite is encouraging them to read. That definitely helped me learn and develop my talents and interests growing up.

It's true! I really hate the mess, I admit. But it's so much less important than my children and helping them to create memories and learn new things!

Thanks for these great reminders Lara! I definitely say "no" too often… but I'm working on it. The memories created by saying "yes" are usually worth the mess that has to be cleaned up afterwards 🙂

Yes. It's amazing how some of the little things we say or do in this area really affect them.
