It has been said that the most precious thing a person touches upon earth is a child. When we reach out to a child with a positive influence, this is one of the most important things we will ever do in a lifetime. A child’s mind is open and pliable, and eager to learn. What a child learns early in life will usually influence him throughout his entire lifetime. So if we have something worthwhile to invest, the heart and mind of a child is the most productive soil that will bring the longest lasting rewards.
