On one of the sites I read for this class there was a link to an article titled
Why Daydreaming Isn’t a Waste of Time
http://blogs.kqed.org/mindshift/2012/06/why-daydreaming-isnt-a-waste-of-time/
"Ironically, a lack of time to daydream may even hamper kids’ capacity to pay attention when they need to. The ability to become absorbed in our own thoughts is linked to our ability to focus intently on the world outside, research indicates."
Our society is so over simulated that we may be hurting our children in their thought processes. Food for thought, if we have time to think!
