Don't Hurry
Them!
By AnssIo PGfri

There is such . thing as being
too early, too beforehand, especially
with a child's training. She has
all the time there Is for what she
intends to do, and so have we.
Whenever we try to do today what
belongs In tomorrow's schedule Of
time we meet ourselves coming
back. We create trouble when we
might have enjoyed ourselves on
the way.
Children develop according to
the rate nature set In them at the
beginning. Some children are set
in slow rhythm, some fast, many
in the medium rate. Any attempt
to bring about growth in child
ahead of the time nature set in him
is bound to be failure, bound to
create trouble and worry. Not only
will the growth not be forthcoming
but something else will come in its
stead; rebellion, tears, stunted
growth.
There are mothers who are in a
great hurry to have their little ones
start school, begin to learn what is
in the books, start reading. Now
few children have the development
OF brain muscle and nerves that a
school day Of the usual sort de-
mands. The great number of chill
dren are not ready for first-grade
work until they are or years old.
To enter 5-year-old child in the
regular f1rst-grade class Is to do
him injustice If not actual harm.
He belongs in the kindergarten or
the nursery school.
Already there are proud parents,
not the mothers alone-daddies have
lots of pride in smart children
who want to push the kindergart-
eners into reading. That must not
be done. The little ones eyes, nerves
and muscles are not ready for such
strain and trouble will surely come
OF any attempt to force that growth.
These children need quiet, rest,
play, dancing, ladder climbing, jun
gle gym work, some hand work,
plenty of rhythmic work to good
music-not classical pieces-good
melody. They do not need reading;
they do not need fine hand work.
nor any pressure on their speed
or accomplishment.
Before a child can learn to read
without stress and strain he must
have grown to where his eyes, his
muscles, nerves and blood vessels
are fit for the task, about the time
he Is 6 or T. Meantime his back
ground for reading should be built
up with the old classical tales
"Aesop's Fables" Mother Goose"
all the old fairy tales. These little
ones have strong imagination which
is now to be fed with stories so
that they become his background
for the appreciation of good Htera-
ture, for his first reading lessons.
Don't hurry little ones into read
ing. but prepare their bodies and
minds for the right time. The kin
dergarten teachers know. The first
grade teachers know. Leave 1t to
them. There is no hurry.

school paper that attracts you; it's
a way, incidentally, to get to know

out whether or not you have the
flair for journalism you hope you
have. If it's required in your school

one, would also be a good field to

play in the street. I feel, however
Mrs. B. is right in not allowing her
children to play in the street at age
2a and IL years. But there will
come a time-in about a year
when no sort of inducement, yard
equipment, special treats or threats
OF punishment will keep her now

fectly normal instinct-that of US

the problem was minimized and the
little ones were more content with
sandbox, digging, etc. But when
the older ones came home, and the
little ones maps were over, then the
problem became acute. One neigh
Dor and took turns watching the
children as they played in the street
warning them of the infrequent
oncoming cars and teaching them to
run to the sides. We did this all
one year. The next year, they
seemed well able to take care of
themselves. But remember, the cars
on our street, as on Mrs. BIS, are
most infrequent. One other factor,
Mrs. B. has overlooked is that the
all-important exercise of bike-rid-
ing can only be done in the street
in this neighborhood and that is too
important a part of a childs
growth and development for him to
be deprived of it.
My second solution to the problem
was to encourage all the children to
play in my yard as much as possible.
So my advice to my good neigh
Dor is to keep your children in their
yard as long as possible, but don't

years and though very faded didn't

my husband thought it looked too
shabby to use again; so before try
ing to get another I decided to try
to see what could do with it myself,
although I have had very poor luck
in some of my attempts to econo-
mize in the past! I put it down on
the basement floor and after re-
moving all the dirt I could with my
sweeper, 7 went over the design with
brush and four-hour enamel from
the dime store. I just freshened it
up, using the same basic colors
which were used originally. Every
body was surprised with the result,
including myself.
I enjoy the RICH very much and
have found so many helpful hints.
