		<description>Yes, it would be interesting to see those drawings into reality. Kids love to draw with what they see around them.</description>

		<description>I really like what you guys are doing and would like to talk about getting your support on the e3.0 initiative we are pushing... 

So what is eduction 3.0? In the simplest of terms, think of the education system as a power grid or in this case an instructional grid, where every participant plugs into it or doesn&#039;t. In the current 1.0 educations system all plugs are independent doing their own thing, its an inefficient system where no one knows whats going on with each plug: Is it getting enough current? is it even plugged in? is overloaded? or about to go into meltdown? Now imagine if all the plugs were data linked to an intelligent instructional grid via the Cloud (Internet). Hmm...

Our conventional plugs haven&#039;t changed for 100 years; in essence education plug hasn&#039;t changed in over 3000. Just as we will see intelligent plugs coming onto the market, the emergence of e3.0 is inevitable and comes down too just building the plug. Everything else is already in place. My goal is to promote the vision of a global intelligent distributed learning network--e3.0; raise awareness and support for it, and ultimately partner with others to build the plug. Join the e3.0 revolution -- change the world.</description>

		<description>It will be interesting for you to see what kids do with computers - which they now play with starting from 3 to 4. Also check out our site www.jr.jujups.com designed for kids to create stuff.</description>

		<title>Comment on Why Did My Son Not Become A Literary Giant? by sivam</title>

		<description>Interesting problem, I have a son who is great at drawing but never developed it, a younger daughter who continuously creates beautiful drawings - on things that she loves.


The important thing is that children  do not have the perverse calcification scheme that we have in terms of classifying creative activity into drawings and poetry. Children are born creative and exercise that creativity - at their own will and in their own style. So I guess we should practice permissive parenting that allows children to find their own source of excitement and meaning.

I remember clearly my little cousin doing the same thing in the Colombo - zoo. He was chasing doves. So I guess, you child is seeing the magic of phenomenon&#039;s - that no longer excites you, perhaps the magic of flight. Perhaps you should think - may be I should groom him to be a pilot ? ........, You can add to this list.

My recommendation is to give up and share the excitement that child sees in that god dammed crow - that is black and beautiful</description>
