Peppers' Education

PURPOSE

To note down the Growing Peppers' many questions.

The kind of questions Mum rarely thought to ask, thus more often than not, responds with, "Honey, actually, I don't know. Let's find out..."

Unfortunately, often she forgets to find out. Sometimes, it is just easy to forget the important priorities when faced with the daily grind of being the referee ("Do not snatch!"), the timekeeper ("It's bedtime!"), and the food vending machine ("Mummy, I'm hungry.")

Mum hopes that this way she can be accountable to her Growing Minds to help them find the answers to their Very CLEVER questions :)

A Deep Question

Three days ago, S4 asked:

"Do baddies think that they are the goodies and think that the goodies are the baddies?"

Why are there different sized raindrops?

Isn't it amazing the kind of observation children makes that adults have no time for?
