In todays immediate satisfaction world, i am so thankful my son sits and talks in theory about sitting and feeling the moment without external stimuli entertaining him. He even adds to the conversation of his own experience at school, when all the kids in his class talk about basically being mindful of others around them. Trusting each other to entertain ourselves with our own brains.
At the touch of a button we can be entertained and sometimes blown away by what we watch and listen to these days. Its easy to imagine our minds getting very lazy and relying on external sources to occupy us. I think its vitally important we keep our young children intrigued to the point where they exhaust us parents with their creativity.
