^{All I really need to know I learned in} 

^{kindergarten and pre-school}

^{These are the things I learned:}

^{•   Put things back where you found them.}

^{•   Clean up your own mess.}

^{•   Don't take things that aren't yours.}

^{•   Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.}

^{•   Wash your hands before you eat.}

^{•   Live a balanced life - learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.}

^{•   Take a nap every afternoon.}

^{•   When you go out in the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands and stick together.}

^{•   Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed in the Styrofoam cup: the roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that.}
