Childlike Joy
Children are not the only ones who can be surprised by joy. The oldest of us have moments of liberation when we see with fresh eyes. Here is a place for you to share with others your delight in childlike vision and your response to children's art.

I danced through the forest of the bristles of my hair brush. Soft air filled ground beneath my feet, webs of gold above. Then it was so tiny an ant could have picked it up. Fun!!

My inner child likes to twirl, around and around in circles until the world spins, it is freeing, it is like dancing and it does make me feel young and alive no matter my age.

I picked up a flat rectangle of plastic and held in both hand. It was cool and smooth and its surface made the pictures all bright and shiny.The picture on one side was small with lots of words and the other side had a big picture. Along the edge was a place I could stick my fingers in and when I did it opened. The disk inside was brilliant with rainbow relections. The smell inside was like a new toy. Now i understand my child's fascinatinon with handling all things.
