Arrival in the Kindergarten

by Gacina Bozidar


The winter and wonderland, The city of Sunderland, good land and terrestrial homeland, the numbering of seconds that must be numbered sixty times, all of this, were part of education in the nice English Kindergarten. And because it was more realisable that the children were growing with good instructions of really good teachers, nobody thought about the other children educational capabilities, and teaching. It would make the school more childish to employ the five years old pupil teaching the others if this young teacher is elected, when his masters in Sunderland's kindergarten decided he was genius. All this was thought of Alice when her mother came close to her in the morning saying that time has come to go to Kindergarten. It was not dream, it was thought and idea, was it wish? And this prompted her to start writing best-selling children novels of the rich English language who was among all, the language written by Twain and Dickens and after all written by hundreds of unpublished schoolgirls and schoolboys leaving it better for 'elected by providence' unknown but really future authors for children. She started to think about prospect of the writing with her first story based on imagined Kindergarten where Masters are children themselves rather then big fearful elderly Masters. Her mother called her and as soon as the clock showed the time that even could lead them to be late either at work either at Kindergarten, Alice kept thinking about her novel. Her mother in her childhood had been taken to the Kindergarten. Was it question of heritance of the talent that at the distance of 29 years ago, theirs minds were producing the same visions. If it is true, the conclusion is that the Mother and Daughter were the authentic queens of the children's novels. This was as well the question of Alice but she posed this question in childish way "Mummy, did you think about the children's' novels where the Kindergarten is managed only by children"? Her dear mother was stunned. And the hour was spent and the hour was invested in explication that there must be maturity who manages the immaturity, and that with children as the Masters they could imagine to fly to the Andromeda Galaxy using theirs space-crafts they produced inside Kindergarten. It is not expected that children do what they first think to do. Alice realised that it is quite reasonable, as she already thought about planting a tree that could be as high as it is needed to reach Andromeda Galaxy. And she thought that by trying to reach this Galaxy she would be perfectly very, very late in her normally loved Kindergarten.
