Gregg Behr (WHEN YOU WONDER, YOU’RE LEARNING: Mister Rogers’ Enduring Lessons for Raising Creative, Curious, Caring Kids) & Joan Koenig (THE MUSICAL CHILD: Using the Power of Music to Raise Children Who Are Happy, Healthy, and Whole)

"This whole notion that learning needs to be difficult to be effective is just bullshit. I always used to say a laughing child is a learning child— science proves it now." Gregg Behr, co-author of When You Wonder, You're Learning, and Joan Koenig, author of The Musical Child, come together to talk to Zibby about the importance of emphasizing wonder and creativity in young kids' lives. The three all share ideas about how to make imagination a daily habit in the classroom and at home, which of Mister Rogers' lessons are still essential to teach young children today, and why it is so important that your kids see you express joy.
