Reflections — Build the Right Environment

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

This episode is part of the “Reflections” series of podcast episodes, which are short, minutes long reflections about a quote or other thought from Dr. Shinichi Suzuki’s philosophy or writing. The purpose of these reflections is to give parents and teachers a chance to spend a few minutes thinking about how great the impact might be on the world and our children with merely a slight moment of reflection about a behavior, thought, or attitude.

This episode asks the question of what the parents have placed in the child’s environment to learn. Children learn things quickly, so it is important to consider what things parents include in the child’s life for the child to learn.
