Our significant future should provide great opportunities for children’s education. We are responsible for guiding youngsters towards lives that are positive, creative, caring, loving, non-violent and open to sharing peace and happiness. Success with this goal should originate at home and start before or during preschool and kindergarten. Parents’ participation in this home education is the key factor for the rest of their children’s school life and social activities.
Parents have an important role to educate their children on growing up with loving, caring, altruistic feelings towards people, animals, nature, and our environment. Other family members, such as grandparents are in an excellent position to share love, happiness, and peace with their children.
In my Japanese background, a great way to show love is through, a fun tapping practice with music. I call it “music hands”. When children tap on their parents’ neck, shoulder, and back with loving and tender care, a family’s union strengthens. Not only do children relieve tension in their parents, they also learn about respect, while sharing love and appreciation with their family. This body language and this kind of skinship is very essential, natural, spontaneous and a native communication method before we learn spoken language.
