Do Buyers even consider what children want? Think about your earliest childhood experiences. What was most important to you. Was it playing with kids your own age? Your experiences in nature? Climbing trees? Picking or planting flowers? Building sandcastles? Playing on the swing sets? Going to the park; perhaps a family picnic in the woods? Learning to play baseball, soccer, badminton, hopscotch, basketball, jump rope, ride bicycles, roller skate, or just running around on an open field?
Do kids love water? A sprinkler could be the next best thing on a hot summer day. Or perhaps having a water balloon fight with family or friends. Playing with bubbles? Giving the dog a bath outdoors. Water Parks can be fun, but not if you're a kid who has to stand in line and wait their turn. HOA communities can be exciting. But not if there are community rules with restrictions. Kids want to swim, when they want to swim! What about seasonal fun?
Can kids have fun in their own backyard even when there are no other kids to play with? Of course they can! Or can kids have fun making friends playing their own music and singing their own songs? Yes, they can be silly and still have fun without being in an organized and expensive membership club.
Kids can find good friends in school and yes, they can dream too! Kids can dream. They can be happy. Whether the weather is cloudy or not, a kid's childhood journey is a one-time life-experience. Let them have peace on earth. Please.
Kids only get to be kids once. Some parents don't have a lot of money. I know mine didn't. But they did play songs that made us happy! "What A Wonderful World," was always my favorite by Louis Armstrong:
"I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and for you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed days, dark sacred nights
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, saying "How do you do?"
They're really sayin', "I love you"
I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world"
