Emilia Ferreiro emphasizes the complexity and depth of children's cognitive processes with this quote. She highlights that children are not passive recipients of information but rather active thinkers and learners who build their knowledge from their experiences with their surroundings.
 This understanding can help adults support children's learning and development more effectively by:
Recognizing and valuing children’s thoughts.
Encouraging exploration of their surroundings, experimenting, and allowing them to make mistakes.
Asking Open-Ended Questions.
Being a patient observer, taking the time to carefully observe children's behaviour and interactions.
​This understanding is very important for adults because it  encourages a more respectful and attentive approach to interacting with children.

As an adults we can foster creativity in children allow them to think different, to express themselves, to make mistake and not treat those mistake as failures but as learning experience, and also we need to rethink what are mistakes anyway is the mistake that the children made is because he or she are follow their own path open then to possibilities, in this way we will have creative adults that follow their own path of thinking. By adopting these practices, we can help children retain their innate creativity into adulthood, enabling them to become innovative thinkers who are not afraid to challenge conventional norms and pursue their own unique paths. #learning #kid #children #homeschool #preschool #kindergarten #teachers #teacherofinstagram
