The Praying Mantis

The Secret Kindergarten Radio Show for Young Children Ep. 45

The praying mantis and the caddis fly have antennae. We humans have one too, we were just programmed not to use it. Engaging in roleplay activities, like “Giant Snow Spider” can help activate the antenna of adults, and allow them to notice what is being received thanks to the young children, who have their antennae fully functioning. The only way to experiencing it is through discovery by getting involved!

The Secret Kindergarten Radio Show for Young Children is live every Saturday 2.00pm-3.00pm Eastern Time on Revolution Radio (Studio A): https://www.revolution.radio/.
