Quote of the day by Pablo Picasso: “Every child is an artist, the problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up”; a powerful reminder about creativity, imagination and the fear of losing ourselves to adulthood

Children possess innate creativity, drawing and inventing without fear of judgment. As we grow, societal comparisons and the pursuit of perfection stifle this natural artistry. Picasso's quote highlights that this creative spark isn't lost but buried, urging us to reclaim that fearless spirit in our everyday lives. Hand a four-year-old a box of crayons and watch what happens. The sky can be purple, the dog can be bigger than the house, and nobody asks that fit in right. There is no fear of getting it wrong, nor does anyone judge it to fit into the norms, because in their world,…

Image courtesy: Instagram/@justherthoughts_lav She thought her son was upset because she broke a promise. The real reason was far more shocking. After a long day at work, a working mother returned home to find her 7-year-old son unusually quiet.

Spanish proverb of the day: “There is no woman who sleeps so deeply that the sound of…” |

Spanish proverb of the day (AI-generated image) Some proverbs offer advice. Others issue warnings. This Spanish saying does neither. Instead, it creates a scene.“There is no woman who sleeps so deeply that the sound of a guitar won't bring her to the window.”The image feels almost cinematic. A quiet evening. A guitar somewhere in the distance. A window opening.Whether such moments happened exactly as often as folklore suggests is difficult to know. Folk traditions tend to embellish reality. They polish ordinary experiences until they become memorable stories. Yet that is often how proverbs survive. Not because they are literally true,…

A person leaves and, on paper at least, the story should be simple.They move to another city. They settle in another country. A friendship becomes less frequent. A family member is no longer around. Time passes. Life changes.Yet that is rarely how human relationships work.Years after leaving school, people still remember a teacher who believed in them. Adults often catch themselves repeating phrases they once heard from a parent or grandparent. An old friend can remain important despite long gaps between conversations. Sometimes a person has not been seen for years, but their presence still seems to occupy a corner…

But hobbies often reveal a child’s natural curiosity.When parents repeatedly dismiss hobbies as useless, children may start believing that only certain types of learning have value, and slowly drift away from their natural interests. Treat hobbies as windows into your child’s mindWhether they are drawing, building, experimenting, or creating stories, these activities allow children to explore.
