THE LEARNING & DEVELOPING CHILD

“The child is born a person.”

This is how we find children – with intelligence more acute, logic more keen, observing powers more alert, moral sensibilities more quick, love and faith and hope more abounding; in fact, in all points as we are, only more so; but absolutely ignorant of the world and its belongings, of us and our ways, and, above all, of how to control and direct and manifest the infinite possibilities with which they are born. (Charlotte Mason, Parents and Children, p. 253)
