"Oh yeah.........." I'm really big on the big ending. Always have been. I love having the kids anticipating what's gonna happen. Looking forward. Predicting. Sometimes you can actually see the gears turning in their heads: calculating, extrapolating, launching a hypothesis and then they're watching for evidence to support their theory.
Ta Dahhhhhhhhhhhhhh......................
My favorite part is all of the squealing and shrieking, "I KNEW that was gonna happen! I just knew it! I knew it!" As Dr. Pam Schiller would say, "Trust is job one." Our first job is to build a sense of trust with children. Give them activities that they are familiar with, activities that they can anticipate the outcome...... and then stretch those boundaries. Kiss your brain!
