A little child found a locked box.
Inside there was something unknown, but the child didn’t know what.
He asked: “Why is it locked? What is inside?”
The grown-ups said: “Don’t ask so many questions.”
But the child kept asking “why?” again and again.
One day, he noticed something strange: with every question, the box began to crack.
The sound of opening grew louder each time curiosity pushed.
And when the box finally opened, it wasn’t by accident — inside was an answer.
But it was also another box, waiting to be opened.
That’s when he understood: every answer carries a new question.
And the moment a grown-up joined the child and simply gave a reply, curiosity had space to keep unlocking.
Curiosity is the basic engine of learning. When we feed curiosity, we grow knowledge in the child’s brain.
The more a child knows, the more curiosity works, and the more he or she wants to know.
