Observing and contemplating living creatures - Crawling down with compassion

We saw a big snail crawling down the wall.
Jo Ee, "will it fall?"
Jo Von, "i wont la, it has legs to suck on the wall."
Jo Ee, "What happen if we touch it?"
Jo Von, "I want to touch it, but i wont touch it, coz if i touch it, it will fall. And the shell will crack."
--- I guess when a kid have more time to be spent with the nature, naturally compassion will grow and they dont have to be taught on being kind to other beings. Compassion, loving kindness are grown inertly through nature and nurture.
Still, having more time, more leisure time to contemplate moments like these is the KEY.
