As a teacher, I must warn you that children’s inexplicable behaviour gets even more out of hand when they become teens. My school implements the Habits of Mind framework so that our impulsive teens can have better self control. I think research shows that the prefrontal cortex is only fully developed when the human turns 25. Good luck to us all xP

Very true about what you say regarding children savouring the little moments. My boy gets excited boarding the double decker bus. He will eagerly climb up to the second storey and sit on the first row seat so that he gets the best view. It’s heartening to see how he finds joy so easily
