"But one thing children at this age cannot do is follow explanations; they have no understanding for this at all. If a teacher tries to explain the subjects during the first school years, the children will react by becoming blunted and dull. This approach simply does not work. On the other hand, everything will go smoothly if, rather than explaining the subject matter, one forms the content into a story, if words are painted with mental images, and if rhythm is brought into one’s whole way of teaching." - Excerpt from Rudolf Steiner's Lecture Five of The Child's Changing Consciousness, Donarch, April 19, 1923.

From https://fairytalez.com/author/james-baldwin/: 
"Born in 1841 in Indiana, James Baldwin was an author, editor and educator. Baldwin was passionate about education and began his career as a teacher before moving on to superintendent. His experience in the school system led to positions as an editor of school books, however, he soon began authoring books himself. Baldwin liked to take complex texts such as the Greek myths and Norse legends, then break them down into simple language for young readers. He published over 50 books in his lifetime, including the texts Old Greek Stories, The Story of Seigfried and even fairy readers, collections of fairy tales. Baldwin passed away in 1925." 

I hope that Fairytales and myths, revived, awakens something in all of us that drives us toward freedom.

You can see the pictures of the book I read live. In this episode, I read, "Shadows of Night: The Hidden World of The Little Brown Bat" by Barbara Bush. Bush's books have fantastic images and nature themes that connect animals and plants to the world of children. I have a fear that I will cause more harm than good by going to video. According to the phenomenal research and writings of Joseph Chilton Pearce, screen time is clearly not good for young children. Yet, screen time is a required tool in the system we have been brought into. One small positive is that screen-time, when shared with the family, is a positive bonding experience if done so occasionally. Screen-time is also proven to be an effective "surrogate" for neglected children. This shows, to me, how damaging neglect can be. The first story with images is symbolic, being a bat. The bat encourages us to face our fears, and overcome them, to bring about dramatic changes. While the bat is a "power animal" for young children everywhere (Batman will always be popular to this age group), I thank the bat for giving me a sign that presenting video is part of a larger change…. and hopefully for the better! I hope that parents sit with their children in front of the screen and find ways to have fun together. I hope that the videos of my show will reach those children who need it the most and provide and element of care that they otherwise would not have received in that moment, for whatever reason.

In the meantime, you can check out the https://discord.com/invite/Ru9PGvuzMZ. You can see the pictures of the book I read live. In this episode, I read, "Shadows of Night: The...Revolution.Radio Discord server. You can see the pictures of the book I read live. In this episode, I read, "Shadows of Night: The Hidden World of The Little Brown Bat" by Barbara Bush. Bush's books have fantastic images and nature themes that connect animals and plants to the world of children. I have a fear that I will cause more harm than good by going to video. According to the phenomenal research and writings of Joseph Chilton Pearce, screen time is clearly not good for young children. Yet, screen time is a required tool in the system we have been brought into. One small positive is that screen-time, when shared with the family, is a positive bonding experience if done so occasionally. Screen-time is also proven to be an effective "surrogate" for neglected children. This shows, to me, how damaging neglect can be. The first story with images is symbolic, being a bat. The bat encourages us to face our fears, and overcome them, to bring about dramatic changes. While the bat is a "power animal" for young children everywhere (Batman will always be popular to this age group), I thank the bat for giving me a sign that presenting video is part of a larger change…. and hopefully for the better! I hope that parents sit with their children in front of the screen and find ways to have fun together. I hope that the videos of my show will reach those children who need it the most and provide and element of care that they otherwise would not have received in that moment, for whatever reason.

Powerful forces in nature come to the aid of families who spend time together outdoors in play. Not only part of Native American philosophy, Rudolf Steiner spoke of nature-connections. He was an inspiration for the "Eco-Spirituality" movement. Children spending time in nature, with their families, brings us back to an ancient time. Indo-Europeans had the nature connection and may have been responsible for the symbolic sequences of Natural Law found in many fairy tales. They also held the children in extremely high regard. The initiation of the child, into the seventh year of age, was a huge ritual and celebration. This, in my opinion, means that the ancient Indo-Europeans understood the importance of the life of the child in the early years.

Pinocchio goes out and lives life to the fullest, making many mistakes and trying to get by without responsibilty. He is learning, through experience, that this doesn't work out so well. There is an effect to the cause. There are consequences to actions. All his rough-sawn actions are symbolic of the hand-made wooden puppet that he is... rough around the edges and being smoothed out and honed by life... until he becomes a boy, a real human being. As the story of Pinocchio unfolds, we see the Freemasonic knowledge of the author become more present. Pinocchio's efforts represent a spiritual way of living life by trying to do well, be virtuous, and learn from mistakes to achieve enlightenment.

We also learn that value was placed on the moments before sleep and the moments before waking. These are occulted times of the day and night, when our beings are in a suggestible state. The protagonist in The Wooden Head asks for advice on his problem situation, he dreams the solution, awakes and knows what he is to do. He has an understanding of the dream space, the otherworld, the space where souls reside. With young children in the alpha brainwave state and largely operating from the original/subconscious brain… this story serves to affirm this space that they are held in by the Creator. This story shows us how we as adults should revere and work with this space as well. This story serves as an affirmation and example for the young and an inspiration for grown ups.

A gnome represents a force that helps us when we look within and need help when we are doing good and on the right path. Fairy Tales with mythical beings resonate with these concepts inside all of us and they affirm the part of life that is about being true to our selves and living a life of good in the fight against evil.

A gnome represents a force that helps us when we look within and need help when we are doing good and on the right path. Fairy Tales with mythical beings resonate with these concepts inside all of us and they affirm the part of life that is about being true to our selves and living a life of good in the fight against evil.

In today's episode we read "The King of The Polar Bears" from Baum's book, American Fairy Tales. The moral from this story is, "… that true dignity and courage depend not upon outward appearance, but come rather from within; also that brag and bluster are poor weapons to carry into battle." This fairy tale contains human-to-animal violence and animal-to-animal conflict. Fairy tales such as this one remind us how far we have gone in terms of censorship. Do you feel that battle advice is appropriate for children? Does it sit right with you? The Secret Kindergarten read aloud fairy tale gems encoded with common sense advice and Natural Law principles. Why not read these to children and observe the reaction? It's a fun learning experience for adults too.

Why is reading fairy tales to young children important?
Reading stories to young children is foundational and formative to their comprehension. Choosing old and original fairy tales is foundational and formative to understanding Natural Law. It is important to learn the symbolism and have reverence for the children and the old stories… spending time with young children and reading is key to creating a world without slavery. A world without slavery is Anarchism, it is a world without masters and therefore a world without slaves. Understanding the right way to behave, the difference between a Right and a Wrong is all there inside the fairy tales of old. They are still with us after thousands of years.

Why is reading fairy tales to young children important?
Reading stories to young children is foundational and formative to their comprehension. Choosing old and original fairy tales is foundational and formative to understanding Natural Law. It is important to learn the symbolism and have reverence for the children and the old stories… spending time with young children and reading is key to creating a world without slavery. A world without slavery is Anarchism, it is a world without masters and therefore a world without slaves. Understanding the right way to behave, the difference between a Right and a Wrong is all there inside the fairy tales of old. They are still with us after thousands of years. Sequences of symbols spoken for the whole family to share, teach and learn from.

The Secret Kindergarten Radio Show for Young Children Ep. 74
There is nothing that we cannot do. We can do anything that we put our mind to. We can affect the growth of plants by transferring our intentions and energy onto them, like in The Grape Vine's Story. The lady, in a way, deceives the grapevine to please her. Jack in Jack The Giant Killer shows us that we can outsmart and outplay grownups as young children. We can defeat opponents much bigger than us. We need to trick our minds into believing it is all true. Young children are capable of this when they are affirmed and recognised as confident and capable. We need to let the young keep their magic and bring it into adulthood to create the kind of world we were meant to live in.

The Secret Kindergarten Radio Show for Young Children Ep. 73
People need to learn the most important lessons, to find the most important truths, by themselves. That's why some people don't learn about objective morality for a long time. This is why young children need the best conditions for development. They need play, they need a connection with adults who revere them. They need to be recognised as confident and capable. They need to be recognised as magical. Then, when they grow up, they will find the most important truths with ease. We won't have to force facts down each other's throats, we won't need to be the governed nor the governors of others. We will be self guided and guides for the children. We will be aware, awake, alive and we will be free.

"Follow children learning their fables; and you will see that when they are in a position to apply them, they almost always do so in a way opposite to the author’s intention, and that instead of looking within themselves for the shortcoming that one wants to cure or prevent, they tend to like the vice with which one takes advantage of others’ shortcomings."
Emile Rousseau

The above quote was taken out of Off With Their Heads!: Fairy Tales and The Culture of Childhood by Maria Tatar. Maria Tatar starts off the first chapter with this quote. Tatar argues that Little Red Riding Hood, and other fairy tales, originated as dirty parlour stories before they were "moralised" to scare children into listening to their mother. Emile Rousseau says that children do the opposite to what the author intended as the outcome for the listening child. So, what are the intentions of the author of any of the well-known fairy tales? If the stories have been heavily revised, who revised them and why? A story has to be created, it has to come from the mind. Has the moral "re-working" of Little Red Riding Hood lasted this long by coercion? Or has it resonated with symbols and values that people agree with deep down? Mothers certainly want their children to listen to them. Relationships require listening from all involved. When adults respect and listen to young children, the young children will listen and respect back… they need this dynamic to learn and grow their minds in the best way possible.

"And those beautiful daisy flowers which go to sleep when the sun goes down, are like babies with their eyes shut, gone to sleep too. In the morning the daisies will open their petals out again, as soon as the sun gets up to call them and the babies will open their eyes too, and be very lively, and make sure you play with the babies! Perhaps, when our eyes are shut too, the little fairies who live with the flowers will join hands and dance and dance. The moonlight always makes them want to dance. Let us go to sleep, and then we shall slip away from our bodies and we can run out and join hands with them, and dance and dance too. And we can catch all the lovely thoughts which are like flowers in God's other house, and take them to the people who would like to have them."

The Secret Kindergarten is live every Saturday 2.00pm-3.00pm Eastern Time on...]]>1600early-childhood-education,family-friendly,storytime,young-children,young-kids-showfalse71fullhttps://thesecretkindergarten.com/the-boy-and-the-broom/"The Story of The Broom" teaches young children about the Natural Law Principle of Vibration. We are all connected and we have a resonant rippling effect on all things we do and how we do them. Adults' patience is put to the test when they engage in activities with young children. It is the challenge with a reward to unlocking higher powers.

Here is an activity for you grown-ups to do with young children at the beach or the river… wherever there is sand. This activity is taken from the book Trails, Tails & Tidepools in Pails:

Sand Slides

Materials Required:
Sand
3x5 index cards
Clear tape
Magnifier
Scissors or hole punch

Create a Sand Scan Slide:
• Punch or cut out several small holes in a 3x5 index card. 
• Cover the underside of each hole with clear sticky tape.
• Press your "slide" into the sand, sticky side down, to pick up several small patches of sand. 
• Hold a magnifying glass close to your slide, and watch the sand become bigger. 
• Notice that sand is made up of millions of sand grains which are teeny tiny bits of rock. Sometimes bits of shell from sea animals are mixed in with the sand grains

We are all connected and we have a resonant rippling effect on all things we do and how we do them. Adults' patience is put to the test when they engage in activities with young children. It is the challenge with a reward to unlocking higher powers.

Here is an activity for you grown-ups to do with young children at the beach or the river… wherever there is sand. This activity is taken from the book Trails, Tails & Tidepools in Pails:

Sand Slides

Materials Required:
Sand
3x5 index cards
Clear tape
Magnifier
Scissors or hole punch

Create a Sand Scan Slide:
• Punch or cut out several small holes in a 3x5 index card. 
• Cover the underside of each hole with clear sticky tape.
• Press your "slide" into the sand, sticky side down, to pick up several small patches of sand. 
• Hold a magnifying glass close to your slide, and watch the sand become bigger. 
• Notice that sand is made up of millions of sand grains which are teeny tiny bits of rock. Sometimes bits of shell from sea animals are mixed in with the sand grains 
• How many colours and shapes can you find in the sand grains? 
• Close your eyes and picture each grain of sand being at one time part of a huge rock or mountain.

My journey began when I decided to throw myself into the world of young children in the preschool environment. It was a place I could use my patience, and grow it. I started to get synchronicities. I didn't dive too deep into the meanings… I took them as a pat-on-the-back from God. I learned that my intuition was growing from my time "suffering" the children. I learned about animal spirit guides and started to learn about the meaning of the animal synchronicities I was receiving (because kids are surrounded by animal symbolism). I learned that this connection extended to plants and all things in nature. I received a gift from someone who looked after our cat while we were away. It was a pendulum. "This is going too far", I thought. The cat-sitter, who became our friend, persisted. "Have you tried using it yet?". I politely delayed and delayed, making excuses for not being crazy enough to take answers from a stone on a chain! When I eventually tried it, I was fascinated and I have watched the pendulum swing from my hands, for a time, every day since. The pendulum led me to asking direct questions about who I am connecting with. The pendulum led me to learning about the fairies and also the angels. I struggled to understand how they could co-exist. Am I Pagan or am I Christian? Is it one or the other, or can it be all things at once? I let sleeping dogs lie, and kept on keeping on. My dowsing and intuition helped me reflect and make the right decisions. It got me started with The Secret Kindergarten. In researching for resources for the show, I discovered books from the Theosophical Society for the education of children. They talk about the fairies and the angels. the same fairies and angels I discovered from working with young children. This episode features more content from the Theosophical Society, because my experience in the past proves what they are saying is true and right for the young children. At least, those involved in creating the material had their heart and experience in the same place as myself. The angels do help us to grow if we are trying to do good in the world. I learned this over time while teaching, without giving it too much thought. And now I discovered a story, saying the same thing, from the book, Theosophy for Very Little Children.

“The Vision of Visions” is taken from the Bhagavad Gita. I found it in God Talks with Arjuna: The Bhagavad Gita. How many times has “The Vision of Visions” been read? How many times has it been spoken throughout time? I have adjusted the prayer to try and make it more understandable. Mainly replacing the old English pronouns. When you listen to it, do you get the message? Do you get a particular feeling? I’m genuinely curious. My paraphrasing of the message in “The Vision of Visions” is as follows: “There is a God. God created everything. There is good and evil. There are good circumstances and bad circumstances. We should be grateful for our life and strive to do good. We should live to fight against evil because God is good and he gave us choices.” My understanding of “The Vision of Visions” is why it is an amazing prayer for children to hear. It sums up life in truth and the age of the text promises its availability in the collective consciousness. As we tap into the collective from our subconscious mind, it surely must be readily available to connect with those who are operating in the subconscious brainwave state… our young children.

Fairy tales are important for many reasons. One reason is because fairies are real! Are there physical Tinkerbells fluttering around in the forest when you aren’t there? Maybe, maybe not. But there is life in the earth, the stones, the plants, the flowers, the trees, the sky. Fairies are a spiritually scientific way of naming this. Young children are more connected to the unseen than adults are. Reading fairy tales to young children, with reverence, is an affirmation of the truth. Spending time with young children, and treating them with reverence, brings you into the fairy tale world. You develop your intuition and get connected with the unseen in nature. It’s a reward. It’s what some may call “eco-spirituality”. It’s what comes about when families connect with each-other and with nature.

The Secret Kindergarten Radio Show for Young Children Ep. 66
In this episode we introduce Parable Time, Prayer Time and we cover part of Lesson IV of The Eternal Verities for Teachers of Children. The prayer is “The Vision of Visions” from God Talks With Arjuna in The Bhagavad Gita. What is the benefit of telling stories and saying prayers from such ancient resources? The Truth that is scattered through these old stories and myths. The Truth doesn’t change, perhaps that’s why some stories stand the test of time. These old myths and stories tap into the “All”, they highlight the “allness” of things. Young children are most connected to the “allness” of things. Instead of indoctrinating kids out of this sense… a solution is to read myths and fairy tales to affirm their natural connection to the “All”.

The Secret Kindergarten Radio Show for Young Children Ep. 66
In this episode we introduce Parable Time, Prayer Time and we cover part of Lesson IV of The Eternal Verities for Teachers of Children. The prayer is “The Vision of Visions” from God Talks With Arjuna in The Bhagavad Gita. What is the benefit of telling stories and saying prayers from such ancient resources? The Truth that is scattered through these old stories and myths. The Truth doesn’t change, perhaps that’s why some stories stand the test of time. These old myths and stories tap into the “All”, they highlight the “allness” of things. Young children are most connected to the “allness” of things. Instead of indoctrinating kids out of this sense… a solution is to read myths and fairy tales to affirm their natural connection to the “All”.

I discovered many hidden things about the world when I was teaching young children. Studying occult material, spirituality, Natural Law and so on, I was having such a magical time. My experiential knowledge was going to be kept at anecdotal evidence only. There was a search for esoteric and occult information regarding early childhood. I found Steiner, I found Rosicrucian material and Theosophical material. I chose not to read it during my teaching practice. I was experiencing so much and developing my knowledge through discovery. I knew that the teaching thing was on a short timer, with the way the world is going. So, years later, I have been reading the material I found. The story of the Fairies from, The Eternal Verities, is one example of esoteric-mystery-school-teachings-for-young-children that I can share with confidence and the knowing in heart for it to be true to share with young children.

The indigo children are clear examples of how children are “in the hands of God”. The indigo children show how children are still coming through from “the other side”. They remind us that of the water that our ships/souls sail on. The phenomena of the indigo children is a cultural trap too. It promotes the idea that “my child is superior to others”. At the risk of criticising parents (of which I am not one), our lack of confidence and our disharmony sees us as separate from one another. We compare ourselves to others. We want to be different and better than others, but we already are different and better.. our soul is trying to push this out of us, but we get the internal message wrong amongst all the external messaging we receive in the distorted world we live in. The point being is that all children are indigo children. All children are special, all humans are able to tap into their “indigo”.

The Golden Bird is classified in the Aarne-Thompson index as a “Supernatural Helper” fairytale. The supernatural helper is the fox. The fox is often a supernatural helper in fairy tales. In shamanic and indigenous cultures, animals are spirits, or are connected to spirits, that are here to teach and guide us. They are here to help us. This is a truth that can be discovered by spending time, in earnest, with young children. The fox symbolises trusting in intuition, intelligence and breaking out of social conditioning. This symbolism rises up in the Grimm’s fairy tale, The Golden Bird. When we read to young children, we are encouraging them to grow their imagination and create the images in their mind. When we read fairy tales, myths and fables of old, we present universal truths that young children turn into images and symbols in their mind that are harmonious with nature, universal and set them up for holistic intelligence and a connection to Truth later in life.

Gino reads a Brothers Grimm story that was removed after the first edition. The Children of Famine is as brutal as it sounds. The kids can handle it though! Children just came back here, they’ve likely been here before.

The brothers Grimm were motivated by the belief that a true natural way of living was passed down through story over time. They wanted to preserve folklore to keep an understanding of common sense and living with one another. Gino’s opinion is that Natural Law teachings are found in folklore tales. So, the point is, The Secret Kindergarten is driven to preserve these stories too. If it’s banned, we will use our common sense and decide whether or not to read it. Did you know Dr. Seuss books are being banned? We are winding the clock back.

Gino doesn’t precisely know how The Children of Famine is of benefit to young children and families. But it opens the conversation up to realities that are faced by people on earth, and in a way that it is appropriate for young children, through spending time and reading stories. Young children are wise enough to hear about death, destruction and wrong-doing. So we should bring these dynamics into the conversation and be curious about what young children have to say about these things.

“Enlightenment should not be regarded as an extraordinary attainment. We can all be better, wiser, and more useful if we firmly resolve to attain mental and emotional maturity.”
- Manly P. Hall

If you treat young children like they are mentally and emotionally mature, they will become wise, useful and be the best they can be.

In this episode we highlight this reverence with: a Grimm’s fairy tail about a wise boy; the numerological significance of the number 3; the wisdom of the alder tree.

Trees are wise, they have that vibe, don’t you think? We share an activity idea that families can do wherever they find a big tree and a seedling. Steiner spoke of the importance of the engagement with families and nature to ferment the spiritual aspect of life. This “eco-spirituality” can be tapped into by getting out in nature and playing with the kids.

“Enlightenment should not be regarded as an extraordinary attainment. We can all be better, wiser, and more useful if we firmly resolve to attain mental and emotional maturity.”
- Manly P. Hall

If you treat young children like they are mentally and emotionally mature, they will become wise, useful and be the best they can be.

In this episode we highlight this reverence with: a Grimm’s fairy tail about a wise boy; the numerological significance of the number 3; the wisdom of the alder tree.

Trees are wise, they have that vibe, don’t you think? We share an activity idea that families can do wherever they find a big tree and a seedling. Steiner spoke of the importance of the engagement with families and nature to ferment the spiritual aspect of life. This “eco-spirituality” can be tapped into by getting out in nature and playing with the kids.

The following is from Lesson 11 (paraphrased) from The Eternal Verities for Teachers of Children:

Evil swells the debts to pay,
Good delivers and acquits;
Shun evil, follow good; hold sway
Over thyself. This is the way.

There are various deceptive and dishonest methods that we might have considered inconsequential, but they do matter; they contribute negative consequences and disgrace to our moral balance, and eventually, these effects need to be reconciled. Even a small falsehood is akin to planting an acorn seed that could grow into a mighty tree if we nurture it by remaining silent when we should speak up. We might delude ourselves into thinking that silence doesn't constitute lying, but this is the most deceitful form of falsehood because it deceives us internally. We must be truthful enough to understand the motives behind our actions or inactions; otherwise, we're not truly honest. Fabricating lies to shield or benefit ourselves incurs a hefty karmic toll.

We shouldn't seek to pardon ourselves for wrongdoing, nor should we attempt to excuse others. It's more beneficial to be honest with someone, point out their mistakes, and assist them in improving, rather than excusing them and allowing them to forget the lessons they need to learn — that consequences await them. Sometimes, we offer excuses because we believe it will make the other person feel more kindly towards us, but this isn't honest behaviour.

The bears showed up during the covid lockdowns. Did you see all the bears? Teddy bears, that is. Children all around the world had more time at home, more time in comfort with their teddies. Children needed their teddy more during this time. The anxiety being transferred from parents and communities who believed the lies, who bought in to the fear-mongering. To bear the boredom of lockdown… some communities encouraged the children to leave their favourite toy in the front window of their home. This was so all the children, out on a masked and socially-distanced walk, could spot the toys from the street-view of the houses. The symbolism of the bear was reaching the masses. The bear was sending the grown-ups a message.

Bear Spirit shows up when: You find yourself in a scenario where it's necessary to assert yourself in order to uphold your self-respect; you need to come out of hiding and face the world; you should trust your instincts; you need to look inside to find the answers to your questions.

The Bear showed up during the lockdowns to tell us to use our common sense, say “no” and live life in the face of the adversity of the covid lockdowns. The young children of the world facilitated the message because they are the most closely connected to our spirit guides.

“Cheer Up” by Keys of Moon | 1575early-childhood-education,family-friendly,storytime,young-children,young-kids-showfalse59fullhttps://thesecretkindergarten.com/the-fireside-fairy/
The trivium. The learning process. The way we operate. Information comes in, and this informs our thoughts. Our thoughts inform the way we feel. Our feelings inspire us into action, because of what we know. So, this is why we want the best information, the right information, the Truth. It sets us up for living the Right way.

Young children are all action. I think the trivium is reversed in the early years. From two-to-seven-years-old, the actions (play-based learning) are what sets the mind up to be able to receive the information in the best way… and to think the best thoughts. From seven-to-fourteen-years-old, we meet in the middle with the emotional development. Learning pursuits such as playing a musical instrument should be introduced with emotional awareness and sensitivity… it’s all about feelings… the second stage of development is about learning to feel. From 14-21 years old… this is where we would see more of a formal education, learning how to think, where the truth can be presented and received directly.

Thought-Fairies (as explained in 'The Power of Thought') are the way to introduce this trivium concept to young children. It speaks to children in a way that affirms their connection to the unseen and to their active imagination. It is a reminder to us grown-ups as well, which makes this story from The Eternal Verities an affirmation to transfer through the bonds we have with our young.

Grimm’s fairy tale, The Spirit in The Bottle, is a tale with a message of courage and trusting in yourself to create your own luck. It comes down to the power of the magic word, “No!”. It is one of the most common first words for a reason. It backs up the five sense, and it backs up the sixth sense too. It really is a positive word. I think it is the most important word for young children, no matter how frustrating it can be for grown-ups! When the word “no” is discouraged from being used (to, ironically, encourage positivity)… the same principle is being applied! One is using the word, “no” to negate the word, “no”! So, let’s say, “No!” to saying, “No!” to a child’s use of the word, “No!”.

We read a fable called “Life” from the Theosophical Society’s The Eternal Verities for The Teachers of Children. It’s an affirmation of the Law of Vibration, the thing that makes us all connected to everything. It’s why we should not do any harm, it’s why we should stick up for ourselves. It’s why we should look after each other and the planet.

We share a story and a poem about cats. Cats send us a message to be guided by our intuition, to pay attention to signs and omens. How does this work? It works because cats have owners, us humans. By having love for a pet cat, we become familiar with them, familiar with an aspect of nature. This makes us connected. This is why witches have cats as “familiars”! The more we care about our cats, the more magic we become.

Positive affirmations are crucial for empowering children to bee-come who they want to bee. There is a new age story we are told as adults. We are here for an “experience”. We are here with our free will, to do as we please. This message is to prevent us from acknowledging objective morality. Our free will choice is for us to choose a side, to take the right action or the wrong action. There is a side to fight on. The “New Age Deception” touches our inner child, our broken child. The child that wasn’t affirmed or encouraged, the child that was discouraged and indoctrinated. This is the paradox. We must bring these affirmations into childhood, while the developing human is in the hands of God, protected by the angels and connected with nature. This helps to guide the child to become who they were born to be, and to do as they please with confidence and on the side of the good guys!

Young children are attracted to the moon. There is a connection between the subconscious effects of the moon and the subconscious dream-like actions of young children. Moon rituals and night-time activities that involve the moon are powerful pursuits for families. Recognising the magic of the natural world brings recognition of the magic of young children. Then, things will circle back round to recognising the magic of the self.

The giraffe spirit tells us to look ahead, to see the wider view, to change paths and find the right one. Oscar Wilde’s Selfish Giant failed to see the bigger picture, he should have been more like the giraffe. At the end of the episode, we ask “Three Questions” to the young. Once a connection is established with young, questioning promotes higher order thinking and sets young children up to be more like the giraffe in adulthood.

A very important episode where we tell a story to teach Karma to children. The story is called The Story from The Theosophical Society’s “Eternal Verities for Teachers of Children”. The important thing is that the adult understands to moral of the story. It is important that the adult understands the allegory or the message of the story. The story can be as fantastical as possible, the more fantastical, the better! What is important is the bond between the adult and the child, and the values, ethics, morals and understanding will get transferred through play and activities such as reading stories that have spiritual teachings. Teachings that are true and understood by the parent or caregiver.

“Cheer Up” by Keys of Moon | 52fullhttps://thesecretkindergarten.com/the-emperors-new-clothes/
The classic story, The Emperor’s New Clothes, shows how young children are outside of the control system, outside of the matrix. Young children are indoctrinated into the fear of what other people think, the fear that run rife amongst the town’s people in the story. The young children spoke the truth to break the spell. The spell was broken because an adult held the young children in reverence and respected the words which were spoken. The Secret Kindergarten understands that our current trajectory can be changed with reverence for the young children in the present moment. They are here to help us break the spell.

Lesson six of Theosophy’s Eternal Verities for Teachers of Children teaches about “The Self” being in all thing here on earth. Life is in everything here on earth: stones; plants; animals and humans. This Life is found in all things because of the Law of Vibration. This is why we should choose to do the right thing, choose to do good, choose to care for the planet and our animals. Birds that dwell in the city are a wonderful point of interest with learning opportunities for our young children. There is so much fascinating learning for the whole family: how different birds nest; where different birds nest; identification; caring for injured birds; feeding… and so on. Bird symbolism can provide messages and auguries for adults if they were to find their playful inner-child and have an interest in the life of birds around us.

Exploring nature around us is an affirmation for young children, it’s an affirmation that they are connected by Natural Law. It builds self esteem to share in exploration with their adult heroes. It promotes curiosity and critical thinking.

The birds and the angels are closely linked through culture, myth, symbolism and spirituality. It is occult knowledge that young children are being supported by the angelic realm. So, what does that say about young children and the birds? Are they here in the cities with us to support young children too? What proof can you find of this through discovery? The Secret Kindergarten seeks to inspire adults to get involved and find out, so they can discover proof of the knowledge that has been hidden from us, and to understand that Natural Law is actually a “thing”!

“Cheer Up” by Keys of Moon | 50fullhttps://thesecretkindergarten.com/a-stargazing-racoon/
The Star card in the tarot is about acceptance and “shining bright” with what you have and with what you cannot change. We explore this theme by reading about a blind racoon, which also highlights the difference between good actions, evil actions and the effects that they cause. This links from Manly P. Hall’s words of wisdom for the day (which are paraphrased to be more palatable for young children).

We end by getting down to brass tacks by suggesting that stargazing is a fantastic family activity on a clear night. Staring at the stars helps us to make sense of our place in the world and who we are…. which circles all the way back to the symbolism of The Star card in the tarot.

Can you decipher the moral of Puss in Boots? We play a version of Charles Perrault’s famous story in this episode. The master cat is more manipulative than I gave him credit for! We practice “Mindful Waiting” … in times where you simply must wait, this is a great exercise for all ages. This exercise develops focus and present-moment awareness. For adults, it brings us back into the world of the young child.

In this episode we read a special story by Shel Silverstein called “The Giving Tree”. It’s a tear-jerker that runs deep. It has themes of existence, creation, life and nature’s elements. It corresponds to the number 10! Pythagoras considered 10 to be the most sacred number, since 1+2+3+4 = 10. These numbers represent existence (1), creation (2), life (3), and the four elements (4): earth 🌎, air 🌬️, fire 🔥, and, water 🌊 !

The tree gives herself in service, much like the donkey who shows up in two songs by Nancy Stewart of https://nancymusic.com/.

At the end of this episode, Gino demonstrates a way to communicate with young children by exploring problem situations. Adults get the opportunity to discover the nature of young children by asking questions from a place of curiosity, playfulness and reverence.

In this episode we read a special story by Shel Silverstein called “The Giving Tree”. It’s a tear-jerker that runs deep. It has themes of existence, creation, life and nature’s elements. It corresponds to the number 10! Pythagoras considered 10 to be the most sacred number, since 1+2+3+4 = 10. These numbers represent existence (1), creation (2), life (3), and the four elements (4): earth 🌎, air 🌬️, fire 🔥, and, water 🌊 !

The tree gives herself in service, much like the donkey who shows up in two songs by Nancy Stewart of https://nancymusic.com/.

At the end of this episode, Gino demonstrates a way to communicate with young children by exploring problem situations. Adults get the opportunity to discover the nature of young children by asking questions from a place of curiosity, playfulness and reverence.

The praying mantis and the caddis fly have antennae. We humans have one too, we were just programmed not to use it. Engaging in roleplay activities, like “Giant Snow Spider” can help activate the antenna of adults, and allow them to notice what is being received thanks to the young children, who have their antennae fully functioning. The only way to experiencing it is through discovery by getting involved!

The Hello Game: look another person in eye and say “hello” and make a comment about them such as “you have blue eyes”. This prompted a discussion in the Revolution Radio chatroom. In the adult world, playing the “hello Game’ might be the better way to start a fist-fight. I think it may be the way to prevent a fist fight later in life, by practicing this confidence-building exercise early in life. We just don’t practice looking one-another in the eye. The eye is the window to the soul, as they say. When I took up martial arts, it strengthened me and gave me confidence which was written into my eyes. I’m still completely harmless, but when I’m locked in eye contact and confrontation… the fear doesn’t float up into the eyes, they stay engaged and calm….. they tell a different story to the bully… the bully moves on… he is looking for the fear, the runaway, not someone who can confide in him.

Susie the Chooser is about as direct as you can ever get when teaching morality to young children. It’s as far as I will ever get to indoctrinating children on this show. I challenge you to find esoteric work regarding the education of young children. You won’t find much outside of Rudolf Steiner and Max Heindel. The story comes from H.P. Blavatsky’s theosophical book “The Eternal Verities”. Blavatsky pulls a “Jordan Peterson” and teaches the children how tidying up your room corresponds to, and has a cosmic effect on, universal order. And it is 100% true, life is about choices, choosing to do the right thing in the present moment is all we have. It’s the best and most powerful thing we can do as individuals. It’s living according to Natural Law.

In this episode we explore the value of perseverance. Lazy Jack turns out to be not-so-lazy and although a little dim, he has bucket-loads of perseverance. Things turn out very well for Jack and his family thanks to only his perseverance. Forcing yourself, to do things that must be done, builds willpower.

The rabbit playing in his “not-a-box” attracts a lengthy confrontation with a judgemental adult. With his perseverance and willpower the rabbit rides it out. He creates the term “not-a-box” to convince the adult that the box can be whatever the rabbit chooses to imagine.

The Giant of St. Michael’s puts King Arthur’s willpower to the most extreme of its use. Violence, gore and death take the backseat in the eyes of the child…. they absorb the message of the story, the theme of the story…. in this case it is the heroism of striving to defeat evil for the greater good.

The Secret Kindergarten wants young children to create the world, with their imagination, by force of their willpower.

According to Carl Jung, a train in a dream symbolises that the dreamer has not yet found their own path in life, that they are on the same path as everyone else… they are a part of the herd as they move forward in life. In a train, there is a message of change, transition, overcoming and vision for the future.

A young child, in Rudolf Steiner’s perspective, is a sense organ… an eye. A train symbolises this as all the things viewed out the window of the train become one ever-changing view to create the fun travelling experience that children and adults adore. The train sees everything as it judders around the landscape. It’s no surprise that we “train” our eyes!

The name “Ain” means “eye” or “fountain”, so we have an etymological connection between a train and the rain! Each individual droplet of rain yields to gravity and acquiesces downwards with all the other droplets of rain. Each drop of rain is part of the “herd”! Rain changes the landscape and it symbolises change and the need for change in the individual…. similar to the dream of a train.

The story “Which Was The King”, shows that children are on the train of life, yet with a higher perspective. Children see that we are all part of the herd, in a higher sense, we are all one and the same. The child is “on the train” seeing everything as it is and absorbing it as one experience. The child doesn’t see a king as any different to himself, because they both have the capacity to wear a hat! The child doesn’t see authority in a uniform or a badge but is only indoctrinated into it from the behaviour he sees in authority figures. A hat is a hat, and a tyrant is a tyrant!

A fun family activity is to role-play a train ride which is explained at the end of this episode. Allowing your young child to be the conductor allows the imagination to run wild. Where will your family go on this train ride? What is the symbolic meaning of the destination that your child chooses? Is it symbolic of the direction in which the world is heading? Is it symbolic of where your young child wants to go in life? It’s up to the adult to decode the meaning, but there certainly is a deeper meaning to the chosen destination… and it’s part of the fun…. the messages and symbolism received from young children is why I’m here doing The Secret Kindergarten.

The daisy uses self-control to close up at night for protection. Then the daisy opens up during the day to attract bees for pollination. The daisy achieves its goal of spreading itself and beautifying the hillside meadows while helping the bees to do their job.

In early childhood, practicing self-control is important and closely related to outcomes in adulthood such as: physical and mental health; goal setting; concentration; academic achievement.

The daisy uses self-control to close up at night for protection. Then the daisy opens up during the day to attract bees for pollination. The daisy achieves its goal of spreading itself and beautifying the hillside meadows while helping the bees to do their job.

In early childhood, practicing self-control is important and closely related to outcomes in adulthood such as: physical and mental health; goal setting; concentration; academic achievement.

In this episode we talk about the apple tree and how they require magic and interaction from other living things.... pollinators. We discover that witches understand this and like to “pollinate” things too, by reading the Witches’ Chant from Macbeth. Was it white magic or black magic that the witches were involved with? Certainly it was black magic, given the ingredients. We left out a few lines too, which we didn’t need to include for young children to understand that these witches were bad! The Witches’ Chant is an important observation point in the show, please do ask your young children what they think! We finish off with a magical activity: positive affirmations to create a better day for ourselves.

Anger is important. Anger is a feeling and feelings must be expressed. Anger can be let out and laughed about later as we continue on our way. We do the angry dance and let our angries out! We talk about the cool, calm and collected condor. The condor knows how to control his feelings and soar through life, no matter how grisly it might be. We affirm life’s eternal path of the soul with part of a lesson from “The Eternal Verities”. We play some stories that cover life, death and rebirth. Nature shows us a world of cycles, like the condor shows us, symbolically, with how he eats. Like the transformation of the dragonfly. In this episode, we weave a thread through cycles: of nature; of life; of the soul’s journey.

Life is fun, difficult, happy, sad, tragic and magic. Life is also eternal. When we die, we return to the place we came from. At the same time, we were here all along. So we don’t have to worry! We can have fun, and be serious at the same time. We can have fun, but be mindful that life is serious and worth caring about. This episode, we highlight the connectedness of life which young children embody and require this connectedness to affirmed by grown-ups.

Gino pulls the eight of swords from his tarot deck once again! The message being that one should stick up for themselves and stick up for what is right, to prevent the self defeating thoughts and patterns from taking hold.

We introduce some content from H.P. Blavatsky’s “The Eternal Verities, for The Teachers of Children”. According to Gino’s estimation, this book appears to be for slightly older children, 6 years plus. Nevertheless, we want to start exploring the limited esoteric resources for children that are available. We read a story from lesson five in the book. This story is called “How to be Happy”. The story shows that little Helen was happiest at home, helping her mother to make a Sunday dress. The story ends with a question: “Do you know why?”. The answer in the book is ‘Yes, it is the nature of the self to render “Gentle Service”’. The goal of “How to Be Happy” in Blavatsky’s book is to affirm the Theosophical value of a life in service to others. If you play this story to your young child, ask them why! We are genuinely curious as to what their answer may be.

Also, in this episode, the swans return! We play Swan Lake and with our knowledge of Swan Spirit symbolism we see how the feminine aspect of self-defence takes flight in Tchaicovsky’s famous play. The theme of true love is bundled up nicely in this story. Odette, to stick up for herself, needs the love of the prince to break her spell. She is defending herself, while at the same time, the situation has the prince defending true love. All cheesiness aside, the message is about sticking up for what is right and doing the right thing. Odette freed herself and found true love. Even if the true love was imposed by the sorceress, as the neo-feminists claim today, Odette still used her power to get herself into a better situation! This brings us to the activity at the end of the show, “Three Questions”. Questioning young children, in a respectful and playful way, is super-important. We aren’t wanting to paint young children into a corner here. We are wanting to encourage young children to make choice and develop their sense of self so they know that they have power and sovereignty. We want young children to defend themselves when life demands it. They need to know who they are, what they want, and what they like to know these things are worth fighting for.

Martial arts like wing chun and krav maga prove that women can also physically defend themselves against bigger and stronger opponents. Women can do more masculine things to defend themselves too! We can all use all our faculties to defend ourselves mentally, emotionally and physically. A must watch movie about True Care, self-defence, violence and a heroine, is the 1994 film “Wing Chun” directed by Woo-Ping Yuen.

My niece was being bullied at her daycare. When her dad, my brother, had a conversation with her about it. He let her know that he would support her with doing whatever she thought was right in dealing with the bullying. She chose to pull a scary face and make a loud monster noise when the bully would approach her! The bullying stopped immediately without any physical intervention required! My niece was back to her usual confident self. In fact, her confidence grew, and continues to grow to this day, as she knows it’s okay to stand up for herself with the support of her loving parents.

We introduce some content from H.P. Blavatsky’s “The Eternal Verities, for The Teachers of Children”. According to Gino’s estimation, this book appears to be for slightly older children, 6 years plus. Nevertheless, we want to start exploring the limited esoteric resources for children that are available. We read a story from lesson five in the book. This story is called “How to be Happy”. The story shows that little Helen was happiest at home, helping her mother to make a Sunday dress. The story ends with a question: “Do you know why?”. The answer in the book is ‘Yes, it is the nature of the self to render “Gentle Service”’. The goal of “How to Be Happy” in Blavatsky’s book is to affirm the Theosophical value of a life in service to others. If you play this story to your young child, ask them why! We are genuinely curious as to what their answer may be.

Also, in this episode, the swans return! We play Swan Lake and with our knowledge of Swan Spirit symbolism we see how the feminine aspect of self-defence takes flight in Tchaicovsky’s famous play. The theme of true love is bundled up nicely in this story. Odette, to stick up for herself, needs the love of the prince to break her spell. She is defending herself, while at the same time, the situation has the prince defending true love. All cheesiness aside, the message is about sticking up for what is right and doing the right thing. Odette freed herself and found true love. Even if the true love was imposed by the sorceress, as the neo-feminists claim today, Odette still used her power to get herself into a better situation! This brings us to the activity at the end of the show, “Three Questions”. Questioning young children, in a respectful and playful way, is super-important. We aren’t wanting to paint young children into a corner here. We are wanting to encourage young children to make choice and develop their sense of self so they know that they have power and sovereignty. We want young children to defend themselves when life demands it. They need to know who they are, what they want, and what they like to know these things are worth fighting for.

Martial arts like wing chun and krav maga prove that women can also physically defend themselves against bigger and stronger opponents. Women can do more masculine things to defend themselves too! We can all use all our faculties to defend ourselves mentally, emotionally and physically. A must watch movie about True Care, self-defence, violence and a heroine, is the 1994 film “Wing Chun” directed by Woo-Ping Yuen.

My niece was being bullied at her daycare. When her dad, my brother, had a conversation with her about it. He let her know that he would support her with doing whatever she thought was right in dealing with the bullying. She chose to pull a scary face and make a loud monster noise when the bully would approach her! The bullying stopped immediately without any physical intervention required! My niece was back to her usual confident self. In fact, her confidence grew, and continues to grow to this day, as she knows it’s okay to stand up for herself with the support of her loving parents.

In this series we are focusing on the education of young girls. Gino pulls the Queen of Swords from his Tarot deck, and in this episode, we are challenging the attention span with “Big Fat Story-Time”! At around two-and-a-half to three years old, girls are more focused on solitary play and working with their internal world. Perhaps a good space to listen to long stories! We play a Greek myth, “Iphigenia”. We want to provoke grown-ups to consider what is appropriate for educating young girls. “Princess Programming” is very real and Gino realised how deep this program runs, even into his own actions when he was a teacher. The grown-up question for this episode is, how much does the State influence our values and expectations regarding the behaviour of young girls? We encourage adults to reflect on this, in the hope of changing the “educational landscape” to create a free world.

Now, back to Iphigenia...

The audio story is extracted from the 1908 book “Heroines Every Child Should Know” edited by H.W. Mabie: http://flyingchipmunkpublishing.com/Childrens_Books.htm#Heroes_and_Heroines_ECSK

The current publisher of the book states, “From very early times great honour was paid to courage and strength; qualities which won success and impressed the imagination. The first heroes and heroines were gods or demi-gods, or others, who did difficult things, not for themselves but for others. The men and women whose bravery and great deeds are described in these pages have been selected not because they are faultless in character and life, but because they were brave, generous, self-forgetful, self- sacrificing and capable of splendid deeds. Stories of heroes and heroines have often made others strong and brave and true in the face of great perils and tasks, and this book is put forth in the faith that it will not only pass on the fame of the heroes and heroines of the past but help make heroes and heroines in the present.”

The princess programming wants everything to be easy for young girls, to create an expectation that everything should be easy, that life should hand everything to the young girl as they wish. Young girls are powerful and beautiful. Like the Queen of Swords in the Tarot, young girls can use their power by thinking and speaking to maintain control in dire circumstances to create a good outcome for themselves and others.

Gino pulls the Rhodochrosite crystal from Judy Hall’s “The Crystal Wisdom Healing Oracle” to guide the show. According to Judy Hall, rhodochrosite is a crystal of transformation from self-reflection and through self-understanding and forgiveness. This crystal corresponds to the tarantula in the world of animal spirit guides. Author of “Animal Spirit Guides”, Dr. Steven Farmer puts the tarantula spirit as a guide for shedding old ways, self-trust (which requires understanding and forgiveness) and pushing forward while dealing with sensitivity. The “Nature Time” segment explores these qualities with Tarantula facts and an anecdote from the Nature Writer, Jean Craighead George. We also play an audiobook about Robert The Bruce and his encounter with a spider. The spider shows him that success is about failing many times, which essentially is what the spider is here to teach us about. It reminds me of spiderman, the hyper-sensitive super-hero. You see? The proof of our connectedness is everywhere!

Young children show us that the Law of Vibration is an objective reality here on earth. The Secret Kindergarten aims to highlight how things like a crystal, a tarantula and striving to succeed, have much more in common than it may seem.

As inspiration for this episode, I pull the citrine card in The Crystal Wisdom Healing Oracle by Judy Hall. According to Judy Hall, citrine brings joy and helps you to interact creatively with the world. She also notes that joyful play creates a “wonder-full” world. The New Age movement speaks to the child in our self. Sadly, this is capitalised on as we were not raised in a way in which we are empowered to overcome our child archetypes and become adults. When we grow up, we have to face our faults and make concerted effort to improve our thoughts, emotions and actions. The New Age movement focuses on the childhood positivity and naivety, encouraging us to bypass the struggle and accept things as they are, in order to manifest a new reality for ourselves. There is a place for crystals, positive thinking and self-acceptance. These tools can help us to try to push ourselves forward and become better people. The cool thing I have discovered is the New Age publications are a wellspring of information for all things early-childhood! Age-appropriate positivity!

Inspired by the citrine card, I thought it was appropriate to bring back Maya The Bee in this episode: we play chapter 10 of Waldemar Bonsels’ 1922 book, The Adventures of Maya The Bee. Maya’s courage, naivety and actions are innate, as it is so with young children. Her joyful play and creative interactions bring her to a world of wonder where she encounters a flower sprite. Engaging with young children in True Care and creative exploration will bring adults in contact with a world of wonder, particularly regarding the unseen! The gifts, modalities and hidden talents, that are promoted as the “cause” in the New Age movement, are really the “effect” of doing the right thing in the world by living according to Natural Law, in particular the Law of Vibration. We are all connected. If one suffers, all suffer. If we live a life of care and influence this on others, children and nature, we are rewarded with the effects: a growing intuition and the opportunity connect with our hidden talents. Perhaps a flower sprite might come into your life from doing the right thing.

The Five of Swords reveals a lack of empathy and harsh criticism. Either to oneself or to others. In this episode, we play The Pied Piper. I was once called the Pied Piper by a parent, as a trail of young children were following behind me. I replied “Yes, minus the child abduction” and the mother laughed hysterically. I loved how she had clearly left that part of the story out of her mind. And some renderings of the story are also “minus the child abduction”. Upon researching the story online, the town of Hamlet has historical evidence of the missing children being a real event. The Pied Piper also being true, but the rats, not so much. Interesting how we have covered the similarities between the rat and young children! Perhaps the frequency of the flute was able to affect both species!

The children of the town were enamoured with the Pied Piper, the children in the preschool were enamoured with me. That can only be for the same reason: using the True currencies that we have, which are time and attention and spending them on children engaged in play!

The adults of the town pulled a “five of swords” on the Pied Piper. They deceived him with no empathy and banned him from the town. Would these kind of people be spending quality time with their children? The children certainly had the freedom to engage with who they pleased. And the Pied Piper in his cheery outfit must have built a rapport with the children right under the town’s greedy noses. Singing, dancing and skipping and playing with the children until they were willing to follow him right out of the town, never to return.

I believe there is a link to the increase in missing children and a decrease in morality and freedom. The more we spend time with our children, the less they will be taken, in mind, heart and soul, by the state. The more we spend time with our children, the less time we will spend with the state anyway. It’s a way out of our current situation.

The Hanged Man of the Tarot is detached from his situation and emotionally disengaged. Being upside down, he has a different perspective or a new view of things. The freeze game is the preschool way to explore the Hanged man and to promote this kind of higher-thought later in life. There is something going on inside the mind of the Hanged Man… he knows something that we may not. He might be suffering for the greater good, he might be doing the great work or enduring a restraint until others are up to speed. Regardless, his mindset required lots of play and physical activity in the early years. Gino tells a Northern Myth that encourages young children’s minds to picture themselves situated on a planet that has been around for a very long time and through many challenges and changes.

Gino pulls the Eight of Swords from the Tarot deck. The Eight of Swords speaks to the loss of self-esteem which creates distrust in the self. In Gino’s experience, as an early childhood teacher, the loss of self-esteem happens when young children aren’t allowed to act according to our natural rights or live according to Natural Law. One should not do harm to another, the golden rule…… but what happens in the institutions of the young? Rules are set in place to prevent violence. Yet violence does not cut both ways. Someone must instigate the violation/violence, and someone must stop the violence from happening using physical force. In the early childhood institutions a culture of bullying and victimhood is promoted. “Keep your hands to yourself” is the number one early childhood institutional rule bar none. But what if a young child disregards that rule? Does the victim have a right to use his/her hands to defend? In the institutions… no! Because the victims must remain victims and follow the number one early childhood institutional rule! And then the self-esteem begins to drop. This dynamic is the number one motivator for Gino and his work in The Secret Kindergarten. In this episode we explore Swan symbolism and how the Swan represents self-defence!

But what if a young child disregards that rule? Does the victim have a right to use his/her hands to defend? In the institutions… no! Because the victims must remain victims and follow the number one early childhood institutional rule! And then the self-esteem begins to drop. This dynamic is the number one motivator for Gino and his work in The Secret Kindergarten. In this episode we explore Swan symbolism and how the Swan represents self-defence!

The Chariot card in the Tarot shows someone “getting what they want”. Young children want to get what they want. Often times, what they want is what they need to become an individual later in life. Sometimes, what they want might be affecting other people in their environment. In the early learning centres, some desires are left unchecked and young children go about harming others where it is seen as a dominant genetic sequence being expressed around recessive genetic sequences. Smacking and snatching a toy from another child requires skill…. it’s just that this skill is put to use in a negative way. The victims of wrong-doing require the same skills to get what they want. So, what are these skills? Firstly, let’s assume that psychopathy is not considered a skill…. at least according to you and I. “Getting what you want” requires a lack of fear, a calming of the nerves, managing stressful and difficult situations. We need these skills to maintain our basic needs, our basic rights. Our natural right to not have our well-being taken from us. As we go about life, people try to stop us, verbally and physically, from going about our business. When our business is not causing any harm, we should exercise our rights and keep moving forward.

Rabbits literally must eat poos to get the nutrition they need for an energetic life of love, family and play. Rabbits send us a message to move ahead by leaps and bounds.

Crabs go with the flow, do their dance, make their mark and stay protected, all at the same time. They send us a message to live life with a thicker skin, express ourselves freely and deal with confrontation tactfully.

We can promote the qualities of the crab and rabbit by providing young children with choices (regardless of how we feel at the time), encouraging self-defence and by practicing our breathing exercises when we are in stressful situations. Simple breathing exercises, for young children, help them manage stress and pain. In particular, the out-breath is connected to the easing of the fight-flight response.

Young children should be empowered to get what they want. They should also experience the natural consequences of their actions. This is part of how they learn about morality, true objective morality that is inherent in nature.

Gino pulls the Death card from the Tarot deck to guide this episode. An end brings a new start. To end something, to start something, to change…. we can view the present moment as a state of growth. Growth is the ideal. Death is not. Sleeping beauty lies in state, ready for her new life. All kinds of events are happening, behind the scenes, in anticipation for her awakening. A cactus contains life inside itself while surviving the harsh conditions of the dry-spells in the desert. A cactus can be cut down, stored away and planted years later. The little shrivelled raisin had so much going on, behind the scenes, to become the nutritional taste sensation we have as a snack in this episode! Give some raisins to your young child for this episode and appreciate that there is a lot going on behind the scenes with young children. We can help the angelic forces, who work behind the scenes, by guiding young children to see that there is more than meets the eye. We can recognise it and be grateful for it.

This episode, number 26, is guided by the Three of Pentacles. What if there was no resistance to freedom in doing what you want? What if your goal was the same as others and you worked together, as a team, with little resistance?

Objectivity in teamwork? How simple! Play and play lots! Cause and effect! Something goes wrong? Oh! Something went wrong. That is not good. Wrong-doing stands out naturally like a sore thumb. Adults don’t feel empowered to allow this natural order to take hold because of fear, because of their own trauma. I know because I did it as a teacher. Once, there were three boys kicking a girl when she was down. Why? Because I had been allowing them do what they thought was right! The girl was becoming a nightmare person, she was terrorising the room: punching; snatching; scratching; bullying. And they had told her to stop, and she attacked them! I was terrified of this incident! I told the boys to stop. I will never forget the look of confusion on their faces. Their faces were the definition of confusion. Put their faces under “confusion” in the darned dictionary! But I was terrified!! Terrified of the parents, the community, the world. Who would allow someone’s little princess be subjected to such “violence”? Princesses aren’t violent themselves, no! They are innocent, beautiful and occasionally spicy! This is just one example where I chickened out of my Natural responsibilities! It’s an example of our adult conditioning to be afraid of doing and supporting what is right. In this case the right thing is understood to be the wrong thing. Firstly, the golden rule is to do no harm. Furthermore the laws of Nature, in this case, the principle of cause and effect, has been deleted. We just had a gang of thugs beating an innocent princess. No cause, just ill-effect.

The best way today to reverse the death of nature is simply to spend time in play with young children and allow the right things to happen. Easier said than done, but it won’t take much if there is more than a handful of adults out there doing so. That’s what charges me to do this work. I see so much power and capability in the people I meet. I know you have it in you to stick up for what is right!

The Page of Wands reminds us that we can make anything happen by having confidence and enthusiasm. Such a simple message that resonates throughout nature. The cat always lands on his feet, so he engages in all kinds of acrobatic feats. The frog’s giant leap gets him where he wants to go…and he is vocal about it too! The chipmunk lives a solitary life, yet we humans see the chipmunk as a very social animal. We can make anything happen with enthusiasm and confidence. Adult fear takes away confidence and enthusiasm from young children. Fearless care giving of the young is easier said than done, but we must remember that confidence and enthusiasm is inherent in young children, they are full of potential. We must reflect on our behaviour and try to break the cycle of “I cannot” to “I can!”.

In my time of teaching, the confidence and enthusiasm in the kids was a feast or a famine. There were bullies and there were victims. The bullies had the enthusiasm and confidence and it was being taken from the victims. The Natural Law principle of self-defence is a principle for a reason. It is a foundational quality that must be placed to create the man or the woman. We must instill confidence and enthusiasm in our young children in a way that doesn’t encourage them to dominate others. They are special and unique, and that is what makes them equal to others. Therefore, they shouldn’t try and take that specialness away from one another. If someone tries to take that away from them, then it should be protected with confidence and enthusiasm!

As the goalposts of “normal behaviour” move ever-closer to narcissism, psychopathy and machiavellianism… it is crucial that the freedom-minded adults encourage and support young children to develop their confidence and enthusiasm. Show them how to be fearless by refusing to be afraid of what might happen to them.

The Ten of Pentacles in the Tarot shows a scene of inheritance. What do our young children inherit? What should they inherit? What is the kind of abundance that is ideal for the young children of the world? The albatross has “inherited” the ability to cruise up in the sky, expending little energy. Never-the-less, he must be careful, smart and witty to make feeding and breeding a success. So the albatross lives a life of abundance but is considerate of others and the world around him. It’s a life of celebration, with a few rules, a few laws, some common sense…. can we say “living according to Natural Law” now??

After the wise albatross, we listen to a grim Grimm story about 12 dancing princesses. We see what happens when a life of royal luxury collides with extreme sheltering, restricting and “helicopter parenting”. What do you think the moral of the story is in this tale? We aren’t 100% sure ourselves but we are calling it part of the fun and a thinking exercise for all the grown-ups out there.

We end with an activity of choices. What is your favourite colour? Even on a conversational level, it is crucial to provide young children with choices. It is important for them to know what they want. This is a big task for the adults to decided what should be given and what should not be handed out so easily. It’s a moral dilemma that the adult must face when working with young children. Giving too much of one thing and taking away too much of another….. you could end up with a murderous princess! The real solution is to spend time with your young children, and plenty of it. The kindness, firmness, boundaries and freedoms will come naturally. Reflect on your actions and make effort to change. That seems to be the one clear mistake of the father king… he didn’t spend time with his daughters.. he provided great riches, set up an extremely firm protective boundary, and bought his way out of spending time with his family.

The Chariot card in the Tarot shows someone “getting what they want”. Young children want to get what they want. Often times, what they want is what they need to become an individual later in life. Sometimes, what they want might be affecting other people in their environment. In the early learning centres, some desires are left unchecked and young children go about harming others where it is seen as a dominant genetic sequence being expressed around recessive genetic sequences. Smacking and snatching a toy from another child requires skill…. it’s just that this skill is put to use in a negative way. The victims of wrong-doing require the same skills to get what they want. So, what are these skills? Firstly, let’s assume that psychopathy is not considered a skill…. at least according to you and I. “Getting what you want” requires a lack of fear, a calming of the nerves, managing stressful and difficult situations. It requires the qualities of a king who must be brave and make big decisions in crucial times. Looking to the animal world, we can see the horse as a symbol of these requirements. The master of a horse must be aware of the precarious situation of the emotional state of the horse. When the horse is mastered, off they gallop with clear direction, speed and determination. Young children should be empowered to get what they want. They should also experience the natural consequences of their actions. This is part of how they learn about morality, true objective morality that is inherent in nature.

Simple breathing exercises, for young children, help them manage stress and pain. In particular, the out-breath is connected to the easing of the fight-flight response. So we do a breathing activity in this episode because it helps young children tap into the energy of the king, the horse and the Tarot’s Chariot.

The Chariot card in the Tarot shows someone “getting what they want”. Young children want to get what they want. Often times, what they want is what they need to become an individual later in life. Sometimes, what they want might be affecting other people in their environment. In the early learning centres, some desires are left unchecked and young children go about harming others where it is seen as a dominant genetic sequence being expressed around recessive genetic sequences. Smacking and snatching a toy from another child requires skill…. it’s just that this skill is put to use in a negative way. The victims of wrong-doing require the same skills to get what they want. So, what are these skills? Firstly, let’s assume that psychopathy is not considered a skill…. at least according to you and I. “Getting what you want” requires a lack of fear, a calming of the nerves, managing stressful and difficult situations. It requires the qualities of a king who must be brave and make big decisions in crucial times. Looking to the animal world, we can see the horse as a symbol of these requirements. The master of a horse must be aware of the precarious situation of the emotional state of the horse. When the horse is mastered, off they gallop with clear direction, speed and determination. Young children should be empowered to get what they want. They should also experience the natural consequences of their actions. This is part of how they learn about morality, true objective morality that is inherent in nature.

Simple breathing exercises, for young children, help them manage stress and pain. In particular, the out-breath is connected to the easing of the fight-flight response.

The card of The Fool in the Tarot implies the start of something new, or a fresh beginning. Some people don’t get to start until they are very old. Sometimes some people never start for their whole lives! But if we spend lots of time, as young children, in play…. we are given more of a chance to begin our Hero’s Journey much sooner than would be expected. The more young children play, the more they give their attention to styles of play that benefit their own learning style/schema. Paying attention to the right things in early childhood develops focus, concentration, self-awareness, processing information…… hang on a minute! Are we talking about the trivium process here? Indeed we are…. at least the early childhood application of it. Let’s put it this way: engaging in preferred styles of play, in the early years, sets the young child up for the best and right learning later in life. Playing the right way means learning the right way and then later… doing the Right thing!

The Sun says “Fake it ‘til you make it”. The sun symbolises the heart of the child. We must win the hearts of the children and embrace the sun while we are at it! In this episode we simply explore some basic facts of the sun as the giver of life. We play “The Boy Who Flew Too High”. This story, based on the story of the ancient Greek myth Icarus, shows that indeed you can fake it ‘til you make it…. just beware of how far you can go!

The Lovers card from the tarot says “Understanding the difference between right and wrong shows us that we have free will to choose to do the right thing or the wrong thing”. How do we teach young children the difference between right and wrong? Well, by observing the magpie! The magpie has high intelligence and takes decisive action….. are the actions right or wrong? The magpie steals shiny objects to keep them out of sight in their home. They are highly suspicious of shiny things. So they are defending their family and territory, whereas to us they can be perceived as clever thieves. The walnut tree is also drenched in choosing between right or wrong. The walnut tree symbolises discernment… the husk and leaves are toxic while the nut itself is healthy for the brain and symbolic of intelligence. The nut even looks like a brain! Exploration of (or ideally in) nature can show us the moral lessons we are searching for. Simply spending time with our young children transfers the morals we know through our own realisation of the symbolism in nature.

The Eight of Pentacles says “Hard work will pay off and lead to results”. Freedom requires us to believe in ourselves, to be self-reliant, self-determined and persistent. We explore these qualities found in nature by looking at the fern, the goose and a Brothers Grimm story about a farmer being observed by a family of larks. Giving young children choices in their lives develops the following qualities: sense of self; self-determination; self-advocacy; leadership; goal-setting…. qualities that are required for the next generation to live in a world without rulers or slaves. So we end the episode with a game about making choices.

In this episode Gino uses the Page of Wands as a guide for the show. The Page of Wands gets immersed in play and exploration. She says “I’ll just see where it goes”. There is potential for this message to be misunderstood. The lovey-dovey new age community might be encouraged to flutter about aimlessly in the pursuit of pleasure, without any goals or higher purpose. This is the paradox where there is the neglected child inside us who never got the chance (or had little opportunity) to just get lost in play for the sake of play. Play and exploration, following the muse, is where the young child develops a sense of self, self-esteem, purpose and all the qualities required for goal-setting and achievement later in life. Parents and caregivers can observe play preferences and extend on these play-patterns through “curation” of the play environment. This is true early childhood education, a scaffolding approach to free-play. The only indoctrination that is happening is an indoctrination into the child becoming the self.

This episode is guided by the Three of Pentacles from Gino’s “Influence of The Angels” tarot deck. Regarding young children, Gino believes the messages from the minor arcana relate to self-esteem, namely the importance of it. The three of pentacles speaks to working with others, pushing through criticism, keeping on task and staying focused, working on yourself and your passions without taking time to let others drag you down. It’s speaks to having a strong sense of one’s place in the world… which should be promoted in the early years. Self-esteem is the key and there are themes of motion and movement… Young children learn through play, their brains develop through physical movement and a healthy growing brain leads to healthy thoughts, emotions and actions! So let’s see what we can gather from nature to affirm our discovery of the importance of the Three of Pentacles in the early years.

Gino pulls the Eight of Swords from the Tarot deck. The Eight of Swords speaks to the loss of self-esteem which creates distrust in the self. In Gino’s experience, as an early childhood teacher, the loss of self-esteem happens when young children aren’t allowed to act according to our natural rights or live according to Natural Law. One should not do harm to another, the golden rule…… but what happens in the institutions of the young? Rules are set in place to prevent violence. Yet violence does not cut both ways. Someone must instigate the violation/violence, and someone must stop the violence from happening using physical force. In the early childhood institutions a culture of bullying and victimhood is promoted. “Keep your hands to yourself” is the number one early childhood institutional rule bar none. But what if a young child disregards that rule? Does the victim have a right to use his/her hands to defend? In the institutions… no! Because the victims must remain victims and follow the number one early childhood institutional rule! And then the self-esteem begins to drop. This dynamic is the number one motivator for Gino and his work in The Secret Kindergarten. In this episode we explore Swan symbolism and how the Swan represents self-defence!

Someone must instigate the violation/violence, and someone must stop the violence from happening using physical force. In the early childhood institutions a culture of bullying and victimhood is promoted. “Keep your hands to yourself” is the number one early childhood institutional rule bar none. But what if a young child disregards that rule? Does the victim have a right to use his/her hands to defend? In the institutions… no! Because the victims must remain victims and follow the number one early childhood institutional rule! And then the self-esteem begins to drop. This dynamic is the number one motivator for Gino and his work in The Secret Kindergarten. In this episode we explore Swan symbolism and how the Swan represents self-defence!

Gino pulls the Queen of Swords for this episode. A correspondence is found with Red Riding Hood. Themes of feminine power, courage, a sharp tongue and doing the right thing are at play. The story of Red Riding Hood has been re-interpreted throughout history. Are you brave enough to play the original story to a young girl in your life? The Secret Kindergarten seeks to erase the “princess programming” and also the “white knighting” (where girls can do no wrong) in the world. Why not encourage all young children to face realities and be brave, and explore the morals of cause-and-effect and self defence. Does a girl have a right to hit a boy? Does a boy have a right to defend himself against a girl? Does a girl have the ability to be brave, courageous and strong? Is there a way of being right and powerful in a feminine way? The Secret Kindergarten wants young children to explore these themes and many others. After all, “death-play” in young children is real, required and natural… it cannot be removed and should not be repressed. The truth is, death is not a big deal in the world of young children. In fact, it is part of the fun in imaginary play. And imaginary play is where the brain develops the most and the best. So, let’s bring back some old original stories and hear them in all their deathly glory!
