Instinctive imitator

It should be noted that most of the effective lessons that a child needs in order to be prepared for life are taught rather by example than by angry or severe words. When we wish to teach a child how to blow up a balloon, we do not give a set of verbal instructions, and expect the child to absorb them. A child is more an imitator than a thinker. So we blow up the balloon aqnd ask him to do the same. Being an instinctive imitator, he can do it almost at once.
