Words of Inspiration and Motivation

A quote from Susan Bredekamp’s Children’s Play: The Roots of Reading

"Like virtually every other aspect of development, mature

play does not happen naturally or occur automatically

as children get older. Rather, children must learn how to

engage in satisfying sociodramatic play, which means that

adults or more capable peers must take responsibility for

assisting them in this learning."

Quote from “The Passion for Early Childhood”

“I had a built in passion to make a real contribution to the world.”  Louise Derman-Sparks

“Whenever I get bogged down with all of the paperwork I have to do…take twenty minutes to go see the children, so you don’t forget what you’re doing all of the for.”  Raymond Hernandez
