Fairy Tales and Imagination

Fairy tales do not tell children the dragons exist.

Children already know that dragons exist.
Fairy tales tell children the dragons can be killed.
-G.K. Chesterton


If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales.
If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.
-Albert Einstein.

These are some quotes I read on another homeschool blog posted by a sweet lady by the name of Jennefer. Having the child-like spirit that I do and doing all I can to raise kids with a good imagination and spirit that dreams, I had to post these as well.

Now go spend some quality time playing make-believe with your kids. I'm off to be a pirate on a ship that is being attacked by Captain Hook.
