Menurut Dearden (Hetherington
dan Parke 1979) bermain adalah kegiatan non serius dan segalanya ada dalam
kegiatan itu sendiri yang dapat memberikan kepuasan bagi anak.
You know that billions of years ago the universe was only a tiny
speck. It is now time to
learn how all of a sudden this tiny speck started expanding. You
probably watch cartoon films on TV. Generally, an enemy chases the hero in
these films and the hero does anything he can to escape. One of the things he
frequently does is to use dynamite. For example, Bugs Bunny's enemies place
dynamite in his home, or Road Runner's enemies lay dynamite in his
path. In each case, these heroes manage to escape the dynamite
with great skill.

terakhir dibengkokkan, sedangkan ungu adalah yang paling pertama.
A common characteristic to all the collection of free short
stories for kids in this online book is to contain love stories or tales,
even if it isn’t always apparent at first glance. Love is the context or
background that gives cohesion to all the stories, its interpretation and its
assimilation; it is even a tool, necessary to understand the baddies.
Children detect if the tales and legends are told or read to
them by people or if they are reproduced by other means. They appreciate the
effort and they understand that it is not always possible to give them all the
desirable time.

element which is love if they are in the company of loved ones and they feel at
home physically and emotionally.

Termites
are as small insects as ants, and they are very skilful. The nests in these
pictures that look like tall
towers are
built by these little creatures. But make no mistake: these are not simple
nests; termites build them according to a plan. Special chambers for the young,
fungus production fields and the queen’s chamber are only a few of the sections
in a termite nest. More importantly, there is a special ventilation system.
Termites,
whose skins are very thin, need humid air. For that reason they need to keep
the temperature and humidity of the nest at a certain level. Otherwise termites
would die. They make the air circulate through
the nest by means
of special channels and use the water that comes from underground tunnels they
have dug, and thus regulate the temperature and humidity.
