Kids are strange creatures but they can teach us a lot about our own grown up lives without even realizing it. They are gross and hilarious little people and everyone should appreciate them.

1. How to share.

Kids hate sharing, it's the worst thing to them. But, when a kid sees a friend sad they will bring them their favorite toy or offer up their snack.

2. Friends come and go.

I can't even count the amount of times I've had a kid come up to my crying because "Jason doesn't want to be my friend anymore". My response is always "Go play with someone else" and immediately that kid cheers up and finds someone new. Obviously, this is not the same as a grown up relationship but it just proves that friends will leave and you're going to be okay.

3. How to brush it off.

I have seen kids face plant off the top of the playground and as long as there is no blood they get up shake it off and move on. While someone my age is probably not worried about falling off the top of the playground there are times when you will get hurt and you just need to know you will be okay and shake it off.

4. To talk it out.

We always tell kids to use their words. Instead of pushing ask them to move over. As teenagers we need to use our words when there is a conflict. Instead of tweeting about it or talking about it to all our friends we need to know how to talk it out with our peers and solve conflicts the easy way.

5. Family is everything.

I can't even count how many times I have had a kid come up to me telling me how much they miss their mom our dad. It doesn't matter how much fun they are having playing with their friends their family is always in the back of their mind. As young adults we should have the same mindset, family should always come first.

6. There's nothing more important than having fun.

It doesn't matter what kind of day they are having, as long as they get to play outside it can be considered a great day. We need to think the same way, doesn't matter what is stressing us out or making us upset. We need to do things that we enjoy every day.

My advice is to spend as much time as you can with kids. They will teach you things you never knew you had to learn.
