PsycbologisU M) that every child hii.i a hunger for experiences which are necessary for his development- He l* hungry for sound*, sights, tastes, smells and muscular strains and atresae*. These are all of fundamental Imporfrnce in the building of bis mind. A rhlld would tie an Idiot who was not hungry for these sense experiences. The only Way he can learn about objects is by investigating them with every sense that will give him any Information regarding them. Many jieraoD* who realise that a ; child mu:! see. bear, taste and smell • all the objects around him in order ; that be may come to understand them do not appreciate that the hunger to touch objects I* probably more acute tlutu any other kind of hunger. Frequently people think a child Is mischievous or willful when he hrndlea tilings around him when lie is told not to do ao. How often one bears iKirents and !*oiji .-turn and guards at munennis and all such folks say to rbildren. “Don't you touch tliat! Can’t you 1 keep your hands off from things?

But if the typical child lie permitted to investigate such objects os books and china until ba has discovered bow they feel and bow they are constituted, until his touch-hunger regarding them I* gratified, be will be likely to let them alone thereafter uoleaa be needs to use them Id some of his games or plays. A wise jwrenl or teacher would provide books, dishes and the Uke which could be used in play, and which would make It unnecessary for the chUd to experiment with delicate things of real value. If a parent leaves an unoccupied child In a room which is furnished with fragile. deUcwte furniture which be can r wch. and If be la not pets milted to gain touch acqualntancw with these things under the guidance and supervision of the parent. then there Is almost certain to be trouble.
