Children Quotes
Whenever we think of children, the first thing that comes to our mind is innocence and naivety. A child is the purest form of a human being as he is not yet moulded by the harsh realities of life. All his activities bring forth his true feelings and he is not bothered about what people think of him. Children also become the reason for happiness and joy of the grand parents as they are able to relive and relish their childhood once more by watching their grandchildren grow in front of their eyes.
