Everyone, no matter who they are tends to gravitate towards certain people. As humans we tend to gravitate towards people that we like and people that we can connect with. The people that we gravitate towards do not always have to be the same age, race, or gender as we are.

I am not going to lie, some of my best friends are four years old. I work with children on a daily basis, so they are the majority of the people that I am around. Here are some reasons why 4-year old's make for the best of friends.

1. They are sweet

They care about you a lot. If they see that you have a scrape on your knee, they will immediately be very concerned. They will also ask a lot of questions about how you cut your knee open. If they do not see you for a long time, they will be extremely excited to see you again.

2. They are very curious

They are new to the world, so every experience is brand new to them. They ask a lot of questions, not only about physical objects but about the world around them. They always want to know where you are going, why you are going there, and the purpose of it.

3. They are funny and entertaining

They have a very active imagination. They always make up the silliest games. They like to play pretend and turn into different people or different characters. They can easily entertain themselves, within seconds they can find something to play with and use their imagination to turn it into a completely different object.

4. You have an impact on them

Sometimes they can be selfish, but this gives you the opportunity to teach them things like sharing. You have the opportunity to make them either love you or hate you, depending on how you treat them. They tend to copy your actions and what you say. That is why you should always watch what you do and say around children. You can teach them kindness and what it is like to love others. Having a positive influence will help them to grow up to be good people.

Children are the sweetest and most caring people. They have a lot of curiosity and wild imaginations. They are always entertaining. If you are having a bad day, they will be there for you. They may not always understand, but they will be there to make you smile. Do not take the little ones for granted. They are the future, all they need to be shown is love.
