Book excerpt: Excerpt from Talks to Children Parents need constantly to remind themselves of the value of a child's first questions and the importance of answering them in such a manner as to guide the grow ing mind into habits of observation, thoughtfulness and further investigation. It must be remembered that this world is very new to the little child. It is but natural that he should wish to know all about it. How can he learn? By asking ques tions. What and how much he learns will depend upon the answers he receives. The wise mother, therefore, welcomes, even antici pates these questions and sets aside, with the same regularity with which she plans the meals, some part of each day which shall truly be the children's hour, when they can go to her with their queries sure of ready re spouse. At bedtime, in their warm nighties, toasting their toes before the open fire, my own three boys and I, and as often their father as well, have talked since the oldest of them was first able to understand, thus storing up many precious memories.
