    I think the only thing I learned as a kid that was and still is correct is: MATH.

    Not to be self conscious about your own appearance....kids aren't worried that they're too fat or not pretty. They just play.

    Wish I learned this as a kid. Told my teacher in kindergarten no one liked me because I was fat. :/ Pretty much been "dieting" since 5th grade.

    On to a more positive note.

    Treat others how you would like to be treated.
    There are always two sides to the story so don't assume or judge.
    Our actions ALWAYS have consequences.
    If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.
    Take a step back and look at the big picture.

    Very true. I have seen that kids do start learning to judge themselves and others on appearance younger. TV and marketing do a complete job of blitzing them with that bias.

    My daughter just started being self-concious this year-started Kindergarten and is 6 :(( And it begins!

    That's terrible!!! :(

    6 years old is way to young!!!! the poor kids of today

    B/C I was a sore loser my mom and dad would always give me some Kenyan saying like "If you can't accept defeat you were never a true competitor to begin with" and then follow it up with now stop crying or you won't ever play again.

    My mom used this when my siblings and I would make fun of each other, when we were getting picked on, or when she found out my sister was bullying other kids at school, "Remember you aren't better than anyone, and nobody is better than you."

    "It's better to give than to receive."

    "Beauty is on the inside and ugly is to the bone."

    "...And remember I love you" My parents and Barney

    There's enough space in this world for everyone, so be kind and non-judgemental.
    It's okay to cry sometimes.
    Sharing makes people feel pretty good. You feel pretty good, too.
    Ask questions. Never stop learning.

    The preteens of today has put my 8 year old through a bunch of cr@p!! Calling her marshmallow and worse...she is self-conscious now because of them. She is slightly overweight thanks to her thyroid gland. Her big sis takes up for her and if I'm there I'll nip it in the bud as quick as possible. Honestly, there was one kid unrepentant and egging on his friends to keep going once. So I stood there and pointed out all their flaws and asked them does it feel good having someone older do that to you? Someone that knows better than to treat people like that? They finally got the message. I hated having to do that but they wouldn't stop and it was everyday..now it happens only occasionally.

    That if all the kids are huddled together with building blocks and you walk over with a better idea....they will not like it. If you get mad that they won't let you play and knock their blocks down, they will tell the teacher. And you will spend the afternoon in the corner alone imagining that better idea by yourself, when you could have been playing with the mediocre one.
