Childhood Childhood is the time that a person should cherish most. It’s the time in ones life to make the mistakes that have the least long term affects. It is the time to fail and learn from all your mishaps, so that when you get into the real world, you know what to expect and how to act. Childhood is when you are are young and you have the freedom to play in the dirt, go to the park, or play outside as long as your heart desires (and your parents let you). Childhood is where you create your best memories. It’s the time that you can look back to and laugh because you were so silly and foolish. Childhood is the most influential part of life. You can imagine things that an adult wouldn’t be able to fathom even if you explained it to them. Its when you can imagine this enormous orange monster with purple stripes in your closet in your room that comes out when you fall asleep and plays with your toys all night. Childhood is when you believe Santa, this huge man, is able to come down your chimney and fly all over the whole world in one night and deliver every kid their dream presentChildhood is the time to have and endless imagination and be filled with wonder. Childhood is the time where a person can be most expressive and impressionable. It’s a time when you don’t have to worry about dressing in a suite or being cleaned up for a business meeting or worry that people will judge you. It is a time to be unaware of anything but yourself and the time to make mistakes and live life freely and without care for tomorrow.

Childhood

Childhood is the time that a person should cherish most. It’s the time in ones life to make the mistakes that have the least long term affects. This is the time to fail and learn from all your mishaps, so that when you get into the real world, you know what to expect and how to act. Childhood is when you are are young and you have the freedom to play in the dirt, go to the park, or play outside as long as your heart desires (and your parents let you). Childhood is often where you create your best memories. It’s the time that you can look back to and laugh because you were so silly and foolish. It is the time you sing to yourself with made up words about what you’re doing while you’re doing it. Childhood is the most influential part of life. You can imagine things that an adult wouldn’t be able to fathom even if you explained it to them. Its when you can imagine this enormous orange monster with purple stripes in your closet in your room that comes out when you fall asleep and plays with your toys all night. Childhood is when you believe Santa, this huge man, is able to come down your chimney and fly all over the whole world in one night and deliver every kid their dream present. It’s also the time when you can imagine this little person with tiny wings can come to your room and give you money in exchange for your teeth. Childhood is the time to have and endless imagination and be filled with wonder. Childhood is the time where a person can be most expressive and impressionable. It’s a time when you don’t have to worry about dressing in a suite or being cleaned up for a business meeting or worry that people will judge you. It is a time to be blissfully unaware of anything but yourself and the time to make mistakes and live life freely and without care for tomorrow.
