Lifetime educator, Dr. Mindy Shaw, maintained a philosophy in her classroom of 4 to 8 year olds to "teach humanity daily" in addition to the more traditional skill sets of reading, writing and math. Now, in an era of remote and hybrid learning, the notion of teaching humanity is somewhat threatened. She has created a series of e-books and paperbacks so that parents can have the tools they need for also teaching social and emotional skills, and in this series, Dr. Shaw discusses what it means to teach humanity both in general and in an era of learning via computer.

In this very brief episode, Dr. Shaw offers some great parenting advice (as always) and in this case she points out how it's important for parents to encourage children to try to new things. It sounds like a simple concept, but Dr. Shaw breaks down why it's an important step in the personal growth of a child and in their learning process. It might be easy to not argue with a child who says that they don't want to try new food or to play a new game or whatever it is, but Dr. Shaw provides great direction and a thoughtful rationale on why you should push your child to try new experiences.
