Toddler Property Laws

If it's in my hand, it's mine.

If I can take it away from you, it's mine.

If I had it a little while ago, it's still mine.

If I like it, it's mine.

Don't even look at it

It's mine!!

If it's mind, it must never appear

to be yours in any way.

If it looks like mine, it is mine.

If it looks like mine but it's yours

It's still mine.

If I'm doing or building something

All of the pieces are mine.

And ...Just so there won't be

Any misunderstanding...

Everything that you think is yours

Is mine!

Poem

Let Us Play
By Sheree Fitch

Let me huddle in the muddle of a slush-delicious mess!

Grass stain green on my knees and bestest dress.

Let me jump in the jungle of the trees in my yard

I can chirp like the birds if I listen extra hard.

Let me run in the sun on an August afternoon

Skip in the rain to a rain-drop dripping tune.

Let me hop like a rabbit as it scurries on its way

Let me see, let me touch, let me find, let me play!

Let me leap like a leopard over shadows that I see!

Run like an antelope where antelopes run free

Let me giggle in the gaggle of a tag playing gang

Let me out, let me in, let me shout, let me bang!

Give me rules to be fair, give me lessons how to share

But let me wriggle as I figgle all about what is there

Let me clamber over boulders!

Climb the highest hills I find

---Let me do it now and then on my very own time!

In the stormiest of weather

Let us play all together----

Because everyone's

On everybody's team.

In the running and the whying

In the funning and the sky-flying

In the hopping and the trying

In the hoping and the high-five-ing

Let us play.

Let us play

Let us dream!

Quote

‘Play is the work of childhood.
Play is how children make sense of their world and learn to solve problems.
Play gives children the freedom to imagine.
It makes anything possible.’**
