Picked my son up from the childcare centre earlier than usual and boarded his favourite vehicle - the bus - to arrive at the shopping mall near our house. He excitedly climbed up the stairs of the double decker bus. When i was his age, i would be scared stiff to sit at the front row seats, but that’s exactly where he plonked himself. Watching him gesture wildly at the cars in front of him made me realise how children find joy in the most mundane things.
