I had never thought so much about stickers and this effect it has on preschoolers before reading this. Wow. I'm in awe of the insight, openness and love you have poured out through this post today.Denise Krebshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00583406241247334445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8728867573837168357.post-38872904905479225752021-03-15T16:49:47.529-07:002021-03-15T16:49:47.529-07:00Thank you!

That image of a preschool sticker fight and the ensuing bloodbath frightens me. It’s a worst nightmare scenario . Maybe Frog doesn’t care that she can’t remove the sticker in one piece. Maybe it’s the struggle w/ that sticker that motivates her. I’ve never thought of Pull-Ups as educational products. 😂Glenda Funkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07020745976555044975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8728867573837168357.post-11981840265830570782021-03-15T14:46:09.913-07:002021-03-15T14:46:09.913-07:00Thank you, Fran!

I believe the car I bought last year, when my youngest was 8, is the first one that won't have both passenger side windows absolutely tattooed with little stickers of all shapes and sizes. I get it. This was a great read - thank you for sharing!eddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15300220943779867441noreply@blogger.com
