10 Reasons to Work with Kids
Stocksnap.io

It took me a while to figure out what I wanted to do after I graduated from college. However, through a lot of different classes, internships, and service work I discovered that I want to work with children. Here is a list of reason why working with children is so great!

1. They definitely can make you laugh!

Kids are not afraid to be silly, and definitely have quite an imagination.

2. You are a role model for the future generation.

Kids often look up to us like we are their heroes and role models, and mimic our every move.

3. They are brutally honest.

Kids tell us like it is, and that's what makes them unique. It's a trait I wish everybody had.

4. You will never be bored!

Working with children is a never ending adventure because there is always something new happening.

5. You get to relive your childhood.

You will never have to miss musical chairs, sing alongs, and 7-up again.

6.You get to watch them grow.

You feel proud that you get to watch them grow, and be able to accomplish even the simple things in life like learning to tie their shoes.

7. You learn from each other.

When working with children, they do not just learn things from you. You learn from them as well like to not take life as seriously, and to take things one step at a time because life is unpredictable.

8. They are constantly curious.

Children always are yearning to learn something new, and you can help fulfill that thirst for knowledge.

9. They are extremely trusting.

If you ask a child what their favorite color or animal is, you are automatically one of their best friends.

10. You''ll be there for them when they need it.

You make not realize it, but you are a big part of their world; you put a smile on their face, and that's all that matters.

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
