I totally agree that more self regulation is required to grow and develop capability in a child. sometimes we can be too overprotective and too structured (meaning only the best for our kids), which I am guilt of, but am definitely trying to work on!Jenna Blackhttp://www.inspireeducation.net.au/blog/kids-health-stages-of-cognitive-development-in-children/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9011594031714741411.post-48157993540060708152012-06-22T07:14:38.842-05:002012-06-22T07:14:38.842-05:00In every work Self-regulation and cognitive skills...In every work Self-regulation and cognitive skills is a necessary skill for getting proper result in life.cognitive skills approachhttp://thinkersed.com/reading-therapy/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9011594031714741411.post-67289027376253284442011-01-05T14:11:28.043-06:002011-01-05T14:11:28.043-06:00Deborah, Joan, K, Sherry and Donna,

Allowing for kids to do their own thing and figure out how to fill their time is important in both developing empathy and creativity. <br /><br />giving them a box of pre-chosen stuff or guiding them too much towards goals can stunt a child's creativity and resourcefulness in my opinion. <br />So give them paints or colours but don't give them the coloring in book, just give them the paper and let them do what comes naturally to them.joanherlingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13180266334927596167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9011594031714741411.post-90444689580011068112011-01-05T03:15:28.614-06:002011-01-05T03:15:28.614-06:00I found this blog via TeachPreschool (Thanks Debor...I found this blog via TeachPreschool (Thanks Deborah!) and I am really interested in your posts on brain development.

It supports our 'play based philosophy' beautifully. I am particularly encouraged by your last two sentence - "When we deny young children play, we are denying them the right to understand the world. By the time they get to college, we will have denied them the opportunity to fix the world too." <br /><br />Donna :) :)Play for Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08475920387209134195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9011594031714741411.post-58147195466633551782011-01-04T19:35:32.694-06:002011-01-04T19:35:32.694-06:00That part about empathy is so critical.

In my opinion, if the window of opportunity for young children to develop a sense of empathy is missed then it is so hard for them to relate to peers and keep good friends as they get older. <br /><br />I really enjoy your blog Deborah. I would love to have you write a guest post for my blog sometime (in your spare time - LOL!)Deborahhttp://www.teachpreschool.orgnoreply@blogger.com
