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 episode, Dr. Shaw examines the dynamics of friendship among children, and she does it within the context of discussing "Love Languages." Dr. Shaw shares a real-life story of two youngsters in her Kindergarten-1st Grade classroom where her students engaged in an open discussion about love languages and, more importantly, what love language each student in the class exhibited. Not only are love languages a fascinating element in relationships, but they can provide a bullseye for what your friends needs most and also provide the mechanisms by which two friends can fill each other's love or friendship tank by doing for their friend what their friend needs most. It's a great way to engage and educate your young child, and fulfilling each other's love language can create the best possible kind of bond between friends.
