Historical Theme Park

Kids do not like learning history from textbooks. In class learning is boring, kids learn better when they get to interact with what they are learning. A historical theme park is great, not only will kids have fun, they can pick up information and facts along the way. Through a theme park, it would be like you were actually there during that historical time. Now that kids literally get their hands on history,  through seeing, hearing, touch they learn much better. Furthermore, now that kids know more about history, they can learn to appreciate and respect what happened in the past.

Courage Development

Genetic determines the color of your eyes, you hair and your skin color. But courage is not something that you are born with; nature and nurture is different. I believe that courage can be developed by "nurture" rather than being born with courage right away (nature). Your surroundings and environment can greatly effect how you can develop your courage. For example, if your family encourages you in everything you do, you might be more courageous and often step up. Or sometimes if you father is an icon you might want to become more socially courageous; sought after your father's renowned figure. Sometimes experience can make you more courageous. For instance, if you have been through worse you might compare with what you have in hand and see it as something effortless. For example, if you have been through a surgery before, putting on a cast might seem painless to you.

Courage is something that you can't get without putting effort on it.
