I think learning is important, especially things like numbers and letters which can really help with language and number skills later on. It's something we do of course and education is important but personally, I think it is of secondary importance to the love and care they receive and to the social skills of being with children from all different backgrounds. In Europe generally the emphasis is more on play and the social side and I think it is a much more healthy way to be. I am actually a very different person to the one who posts on here for a laugh lol.
