The Albatross and The Princesses
The Secret Kindergarten Radio Show for Young Children Ep. 23

The Ten of Pentacles in the Tarot shows a scene of inheritance. What do our young children inherit? What should they inherit? What is the kind of abundance that is ideal for the young children of the world? The albatross has “inherited” the ability to cruise up in the sky, expending little energy. Never-the-less, he must be careful, smart and witty to make feeding and breeding a success. So the albatross lives a life of abundance but is considerate of others and the world around him. It’s a life of celebration, with a few rules, a few laws, some common sense…. can we say “living according to Natural Law” now??

After the wise albatross, we listen to a grim Grimm story about 12 dancing princesses. We see what happens when a life of royal luxury collides with extreme sheltering, restricting and “helicopter parenting”. What do you think the moral of the story is in this tale? We aren’t 100% sure ourselves but we are calling it part of the fun and a thinking exercise for all the grown-ups out there.

We end with an activity of choices. What is your favourite colour? Even on a conversational level, it is crucial to provide young children with choices. It is important for them to know what they want. This is a big task for the adults to decided what should be given and what should not be handed out so easily. It’s a moral dilemma that the adult must face when working with young children. Giving too much of one thing and taking away too much of another….. you could end up with a murderous princess! The real solution is to spend time with your young children, and plenty of it. The kindness, firmness, boundaries and freedoms will come naturally. Reflect on your actions and make effort to change. That seems to be the one clear mistake of the father king… he didn’t spend time with his daughters.. he provided great riches, set up an extremely firm protective boundary, and bought his way out of spending time with his family.
