Children are such curious creatures. They
explore, question and wonder, and by doing so,
learn...For too many children, curiosity fades.
Curiosity dimmed is a future denied. Our
potential — emotional, social, and cognitive — is
expressed through the quantity and quality of
our experiences. And the less-curious child will
make fewer new friends, join fewer social groups,
read fewer books, and take fewer hikes. The
less-curious child is harder to teach because he is
harder to inspire, enthuse, and motivate. (Perry 2001, 1)
