Appearances
Yeah.
Yeah, totally.
It's not like saying, Oh, here you uh have to grow up and do everything yourself like and take all the fun out of childhood.
It's actually that they're so interested in doing it and working alongside and being part of the family and um yeah, like a toddler can cut apple and was really proud that they made their own snack and it's not forcing the child then to eat any apple.
They wanna sit down and eat the snack they just made.
So it's just including them in daily life and all of those kind of skills are so useful and
And they have processes and steps and so they can build concentration.
They're learning a lot.
Um for a toddler, they're actually getting fine motor skills from these kind of activities and and daily life.
So that's really cool.
I mean it's a lot of more story, even if once you're moving to school age, the materials that they use in the classroom are all concrete.
So you don't learn maths by someone writing on the blackboard.
You actually handle the materials.
This is one, this is ten, this is a hundred.
this is a thousand and you can have a five year old who's doing sums like five thousand three hundred and sixty because they can just go and get five thousand blocks and add them to another if the sum's one thousand they get a one thousand block and they're like, Oh look, there's six thousand there and they concretely see that.
It makes so much more sense than having to do everything abstractly.
So
So this hands on learning is such a big part.
It's just not
Yeah, passive learning.
