Raising Thoughtful & Curious Kids
Famous science writer wrote this book while homeschooling his kids which has some beautiful lines in it that inspire learning science.
The feeling of the wind blowing is the feeling of molecules pushing against you.



Raising Thoughtful & Curious Kids
From the article:
Engage them early in lively conversation.
Play card, board or videogames that build working memory.
Stress the intrinsic rewards of learning rather than grades.
Frame a bad grade as a reason to work harder.
Enroll them in schools where intelligence is seen as fluid rather than fixed.
Teach them that their ability is under their control.

Remarks about where beauty can come from beyond the surface.
A frictionless, unresponsive life is simply not a human one—we are born troublemakers who need to make marks.
