== Childlike Wonder and Faith==

==Building Character==

It is important to understand that childhood years are the building blocks of a person.  As people experience new things and later use those novel experiences as reference points when comparing future experiences. <ref>https://www.elitedaily.com/life/embrace-your-inner-child/1036085</ref> Strong Childlike Wonder teach people that good can win in the end, as well as the value of [[hard work]] and [[imagination]]/[[innovation]], as well as that nothing is impossible.  As a child doesn't have to be told that dragons and the stories aren’t real, because he’ll figure that out on his own soon enough. However, believing that a noble hero can slay a scary dragon teaches a child that impossible odds can be overcome. Believing that good always triumphs over evil while he's a kid will teach him that good really can win in the end when he's an adult. <ref>https://929thelake.com/think-like-a-kid-why-childlike-wonder-is-important/</ref>  Unfortunately the nanny state has restricted and prevented children from being playful. As digging in the sand at the beach was a fun activity for young children, but no more because of liberals. Lenore  Skenazy claims that their message is “Don’t have fun—it’s too dangerous”, and encourages parents to let "kids have a real childhood".  <ref>https://www.prageru.com/video/let-kids-be-kids/</ref>

“Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.” - Luke 18:15-17 Holding onto one's Childlike Wonder makes people better Christians. It makes one more grateful for God's gifts, and what God has in store for people. It makes people humble enough to be willing to learn new things. <ref>https://www.theodysseyonline.com/never-lose-wonder</ref> When people lose the wonder of what God has created, it is easy to lose a lot of the wonder of who God is. <ref>https://christianworkingwoman.org/broadcast/dont-lose-the-wonder/</ref>
