Children must be busy,Always something learning;Toys and trinkets, for their secrets,Inside-outward turning.While the top is spinning,Boys are wondering all,How it stands erect unaided,Why it does not fall.While the top is humming,Still the wonder grows,By what art the little spinnerWhistles as it goes.Children learn while playing;Children play while learning;Pastimes, often more than lessons,Into knowledge turning.
