I've been reading several books lately along the lines of "100 words your child should know by the 1st Grade" and that sort of thing, in order to help bolster my six-year-old's vocabulary. A disturbing thing I've noticed is that they've left out several words that I feel are essential for the growth and development of a Child's mind...and here they are:
1. God
2. Please
3. Thank you (okay, carp away...two words...big deal!)
4. Sir
5. Ma'am
6. Excuse Me (skip it, okay?)
7. No Thank you (3 and counting)
8. Amen
9. Jesus (in a good way!)
10. Love
See, I can be serious once in awhile... why don't you see if your kids know these words?
