And you are /absolutely/ right about giving kids plenty of big-muscle play. I actually picked out the oldest's first grade teacher /because/ he was willing to get the kids up and moving in between /every/ academic task, which was unusual at the time, and nearly unheard of now.

I love that she's /not/ aware of how much she's changed, just by being willing to ask, rather than holding to the assumption that it's not worth asking because the answer is always 'no.'
