I have no children myself, so it was rather intriguing watching what interests them. One was about one year old, and the other about three. The one year old seemed totally fascinated with an empty aseptic package (Rice milk or something like that). Its whole world was wrapped up in this empty package. It made me wonder how its mind was beginning to fashion the world it experiences. The other child was much more interactive with me because she could speak, but I could rarely understand what she was talking about. The ego was forming in this one, but mostly she was interacting with me with a beach ball and some other small spherical toys. I have vague memories of my childhood playing and making up stuff, trying to figure out how things works. Somewhere along the line all this make believe solidifies into something more sinister - what I think is real. The pretend becomes fossilised. I won't comment on the deeper aspects of your post, just pass along a wonderful moment having to do with children. Or one child, at least. Here's Maya yesterday, revealing her aspect as the Buddha of Compassion, meditating on the infinite wonder of bunnies. :-)
