Dear Moms, Dads, Relatives, Educators and Business Owners!

Children can be really fascinating creatures. Have you ever sat back and watched your child enter a room full of strangers?

My son (30 months) will walk into a room and scan the occupants until he finds a young girl for whom he will make a beeline and within minutes be on her lap telling her a story and she will be smiling sweetly at him. My nephew will walk in and say hello to everyone in the room as loudly as he can. My daughter will walk in quietly and size everyone up from behind my legs and only come out after 30 minutes.

At the swimming school I take my children to, there is a 6 year old boy to whom the other children are drawn. When he walks into the dome covering the pool, the kids' faces light up and they flock around him like groupies. I find it fascinating that some children have this type of charisma at such a young age. The next time you walk into a restaurant, party or doctor's room with your kids, watch their reaction and the reaction of the people around them.

Melanie jogs our memories of our childhood this month (what's left of the memory banks) in her article on Play and Development and asks us what our children are going to remember? To me this is a rather scary thought. My kids will probably not be able to picture my face without a computer screen in front of it!

Our Holiday Entertainment Guide will be on its way to your in box shortly.

Top tip - Children love to say exactly what they think of other people very loudly at inopportune moments. Never discourage your child from having an opinion as he or she is entitled to it. You do, however, need to teach them that it is rude to voice their opinion in front of the person they are describing and that it would be preferable they tell you quietly where the other person cannot hear! - Kerry Salmon.
