Quote

The child walks with his eyes as well as his legs, and it is the interesting things in the environment that carry him along. He walks and sees a lamb eating, he is interested and sits down by it, watching; then he gets up and goes further, he sees a flower sits down by it and sniffs at it; then he sees a tree, walks up to it and round and round it four or five times and then sits down and looks at it.
