Mr. Clown Man

 

This juggler was juggling balls while telling young kids and their parents this wonderful poem by Dorothy Law Nolte.

Children Learn What they Live

If children live with criticism
They learn to condemn.
If children live with hostility
They learn to fight.
If children live with ridicule
They learn to be shy.
If children live with shame
They learn to feel guilty.
If children live with suppression
They learn to hate.
If children learn to live with neglect
They learn to not care.
If children live with pain
They learn to feel hurt.

But

Children learn patience
If they live with tolerance.
Children learn confidence
If they live with encouragement.
Children learn to appreciate
If they live with praise.
Children learn justice
If they live with fairness.
Children learn faith
If they live with security.
Children to like themselves
If they live with approval,
And children learn love
If they live with acceptance
And friendship.
