the child's worldview

Go down on all fours and look at the world from this angle. It's refreshing to see things through a child's eyes. 3 year old Adi pats a Dad at the supermarket, points at his pram with a gurgling baby in it and asks seriously -
"Hey Mr! How much for this?"
"Er.. that's my baby!"
"I want to buy it. How much for it?"
(Is this his way of showing that he yearns for a sibling?)

A child's wisdom
Out of the mouth of babes comes a world of wisdom. We adults like to think we have all the answers, but a child sometimes knows better.
Nesan peers through the window of the airplane as it reaches the clouds -
"Hello God! Are you out there?" he calls out cheerfully.

Kids like to feel mature
Imitating adults make a child feel mature.
"Whew! It's a hot day today!" I exclaim, wiping my perspiring brow.
"Yes. It's all because of global warming," pipes in 5 year old Nandita.

3 year old Chitra talks sternly to her doll all wrapped up in woollens.
"Look now! You've caught a cold again! I've tried Alopathy, Homeopathy and Ayurvedic medicines. I just don't know what to do with you!"
