An infant always learns. The less we interfere with the natural process of learning, the more we can observe how much infants learn all the time.

Allow the child to be authentic, to move, to feel the way they move, appreciating them for what they are.

If infants are ready to do something, they will do it. In fact, when they are ready, they have to do it.

I have spent my adult life trying to figure out why parents and society put themselves into a race -- what's the hurry? I keep trying to convey the pleasure every parent and teacher could feel while observing, appreciating and enjoying what the infant is doing. This attitude would change our educational climate from worry to joy.

All children accomplish milestones in their own way, in their own time.

Wouldn't life be easier for both parents and infants if parents would observe, relax and enjoy what their child is doing, rather than keep teaching what the child is not yet capable of?

Children do not play because they learn; They play because they play.
