The Path to Understanding...10:30am


Two Images, (Above and Below) that exemplify The Wonder Studio Mission!


The one above that shows a little girl perfectly comfortable in her environment!  A Grandmother who stood by with support, letting her Granddaughter experiment with Shaving cream... Even Tasting it!!  This is how young children explore, when given some Freedom...Playful and Creative...Sometimes limits are necessary but this was definitely NOT one of those times!  




And here (in the Above picture), a child deep in investigation and a Mother as well.  You can see she is not interfering or "teaching" him anything...simply BEING with him on his journey.  She is close by...and she is also curious about what he is interested in.  He stayed in this spot for a good while and mom smartly and gradually increased her distance from him, quietly engaging some other Mothers.  But also being sure, to stay in the moment and in tune to her son.

This is a place where we can give our children what they need and also meet some of our own needs.  It always gives me such great feelings when I see parents and grandparents (and nannies ;) enjoying their children...reach a new understanding about their little one...or gain some support from a fellow parent.  
A community where everyone is learning.
And Always...
We are On the path to Understanding...  Ourselves and Each Other.
