A Touching Story
A four year old boy in my daycare was painting index cards during free play, and I asked him, what he was making.” The little boy replied, “I am making purple box” I said “oh how nice” The child continued to paint. He said, “I am making a birthday present for my mother” I replied again how nice. Later, that afternoon when we had free play again the child finished the box. I asked “is it ready he said “no, I have to wrap it, but I don’t have any wrapping paper.” I helped glue the purple index cards together to make the box, and helped him cover the bottom with construction paper. “I asked him was he going to put in the box, and he replied, “I already put it in the box”. I put two hugs, and three kisses from my daddy, my sister and me”. It just melted my heart.
