as have many other qualities. The same holds true for children. Let’s

read a poem about how every wise child should live.

If I want to be happy
And quick on my toes,

I must bite my food slowly
And breathe through my nose.

I must press back my shoulders
And hold up my head,

And not close my window

When going to bed.
