Learning, Fun?

 How many think of learning as fun? Children are open to learning and exploring the world from the beginning, however without the excitement of having fun they tend to be closed minded. I am absolutely positive that a teacher that has fun produces students that learn and apply what they learn. Having fun as a teacher rubs off on the children. It is sort of like a smile. If you smile all the time you begin to notice many smiling right back at you. I understand that getting an education is serious but we don't have to be serious when teaching our lessons, there is a way we can teach without being serious and it is called having FUN. By the way learning new things in life is very fun, isn't it?
