I’m a loser, now give me my trophy!Some kids get participation trophies just for showing up and some kids actually work for their trophy.Although,it may hurt your child’s feelings not all kids should get a trophy because if all kids get a trophy then the kids that worked hard won’t feel like their trophy is worth something.
How do you teach your children to be good winners and good losers if they don’t win and lose?How will they handle life?;Such as not getting the job or not getting into that expensive college.Kids are not motivated to do their best if they know that they are always going to “win”.If a kid can win for nothing,then they are trained at a young age to not try and not trying won’t work in the real world.
Trophies were once rare things,sterling silver cups bought from jewelry stores for truly special occasions.Today,participation trophies and prizes are almost a given as children are constantly assured that they are winners.Winning a trophy is a big deal most of the time but does it mean the same thing if everybody gets one?

How fun you are to watch
I chase and chase for hours and hours. But I never seem to catch you
maybe if I knew more about you I could catch you
So now I know more about you but I just can’t get past the fact
That some of you have 10,000 eyes
And that really creeps me out
Magic
Nobody ever told me
that magic isnt real
I’ve believed since i was 3
and now
show and tell’s here
and they said i acted like a 2 year old
all because i showed them my magic pencil
Sally said i was a liar
christan said i was a silly moo
The teacher wanted me to prove to her that it was true,
so what could i do,
i erased her!!!
The sense I couldn’t live without.
The one sense I couldn’t live without is taste.
Without taste you couldn’t drink a chocolate milkshake
And like it, because you wouldn’t be able to taste it.
Without taste the world would have no flavor.
Fast food wouldn’t be good anymore. And ice cream
Would just be frozen milk! I really don’t want to think of all
My favorite foods just go to waste. Like I said before ,
Without taste the world would have no flavor.
Martin Luther King Changes the World!
In the 1900s whites and blacks were separated.
The waiting rooms, buses even schools! After a while
The black people got tired of the whites treating them so poorly. They started making signs and boycotting the buses
Over race issues. Martin Luther king then ends segregation in the 1960s. Years later Martin Luther King gets assassinated.
The 1900s, a decade that changed America forever.
