Blog 4

After seeing this ridiculously cute article the other day on my AOL account I decided it would be a nice, uplifting site to share, after all, children do have a mind or rather language of their own.

The article on its own is a good reading but if scrolled down and you click the slideshow portion of it that's what I really will be speaking about.

These adorable examples of children's language and view of things makes my heart melt! How interesting it is to see how they think and for them to write it down their own way makes me also realize how much their little brains extract what they hear adults say and how much their brains work as sponges.  

agree with this article becaus it is showing us the many ways kids communicate and translate ideas and words through their eyes. I read and looked at all 92 slides and absolutely loved them, I don't expect everyone to look at each one BUT I do have to say that slides, 4, 10, 33, 44, 80 and 81 were my complete favorite! 

This topic did make me want to learn more because it amazed me how kids communicate whether with each other, imaginary friends, or with adults. I have several siblings(me being the oldest) and I recall all their silly sentences, drawings, and dream interpretations they would give me. 

This topic affects our world because they are our future! It is important for us to realize we are our children's role models and we must teach by example. 😊

  2. This is great! You show us through this how children learning language can often make mistakes when it comes to writing. English is difficult! You should take a peek at Jodi's blog entry this week because she has a similar topic :)
    Great link!

  4. I have to say, that was absolutely adorable! It is interesting to see how young children interpret what they hear. We could be talking about one thing and it may sounds similar to another words and they assume it means something else. Children are interesting like that. My 5 month old niece makes a lot of gibberish noises when she tries to communicate with us. Its so cute.
