I am taking the most wonderful on-line class right now with Mariah Bruehl of Playful Learning.

Mariah has a blog, a brick and mortar location where she offers workshops and materials and an upcoming book.

I have taken many things from her class but as I am clearly having time management issues right now as I enter back into the world of elementary schools, I wanted to share just one simple thought that has been in my  mind daily.

I am not quoting directly but the meaning of Mariah’s words were that we should aim to inspire not entertain our children with the materials we provide for them.

So for today, think inspiration.
