Love survey from age 4-8(you will be amazed) by Charles Edem
A group of professional people posed this question
to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, "What does love
mean?"
The answers they got were broader and deeper
than anyone could have imagined. See what you
think:
"When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't
bend over and paint her toenails anymore. My
grandfather does it for her all the time, even after
his hands got arthritis too. That's love."
Rebecca - age 8
"When someone loves you, the way they say your
name is different. You know that your name is safe
in their mouth."
Billy - age 4
"Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy
puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell
each other."
Karl - age 5
"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody
most of your french fries without making them give
you any of theirs."
Chrissy - age 6
"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired."
Terri - age 4
"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my
daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him to
make sure the taste is okay."
Danny - age 7
"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you
get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and
you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that.
They look gross when they kiss."
Emily - age 8
"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if
you stop opening presents and listen."
Bobby - age 7
"If you want to learn to love better, you should start
with a friend who you hate."
Nikka - age 6
"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then
he wears it everyday."
Noelle - age 7
"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man
who are still friends even after they know each
other so well."
Tommy - age 6
"During my piano recital, I was on a stage and
scared. I looked at all the people watching me and
saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only
one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore."
Cindy - age 8
"My mommy loves me more than anybody. You
don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night."
Clare - Age 6
"Love is when mommy gives daddy the best piece
of chicken."
Elaine - age 6
"Love is when mommy sees daddy smelly and
sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert
Redford."
Chris - age 7
"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after
you left him alone all day."
Mary Ann - age 4
"I know my older sister loves me because she
gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and
buy new ones."
Lauren - age 4
"I let my big sister pick on me because my Mom
says she only picks on me because she loves me.
So I pick on my baby sister because I love her."
Bethany - age 4
"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up
and down and little stars come out of you."
Karen - age 7
"You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you
mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot.
People forget."
Jessica - age 8
