Capitolo 88

Thick Jane used for coming to make of Maria a visit, and when together the
children had accustomed for spending a lot of time in that plays with
their dolls. Besides dressing and to strip them, and playing picks them up
out to excursions and visits, they talked to them a great quantity, and
give them a lot of information profit and precious and education.

[The illustration: Indirect Education.]

Delia now contrived to get a great influence and predominance on the
his/her children's chins from he/she wants to say of these dolls. You immediately fell in the
the idea of his/her/their children in respect to them, and it treated as always them if theirs
it was the true people;  often speaking of them and to them, in the presence of
the other children, in the most serious way. This not only arranged the
children a lot, but it trained Of the under pretension to talk to the,
dolls, to communicate a lot of useful education to his/her/their children,
and sometimes to make very healthy and durable impressions on them
chins.

_Lectures to the Dolls_.

For example, sometimes when Jane was making of Maria a visit and the two
children entered his/her room with their dolls in their arm, she would speak
to them as if theirs were the true people, and picking then them up in his/her hands
put them in front of her on his/her knee, and gives them a very serious lecture
in in comparison to the correct behavior that they was to observe during the
afternoon. If Delia had tried to precisely hold the same lecture to the
same children, they is able very soon you/he/she is become without rest and uncomfortable,
and you/he/she would have made very small impression on them. But being
addressed to the dolls, they would greatly be interested him, and it is able
you listen with the maximum attention;  and there is without doubt that the suggestions
and instructions that she gave made a stronger impression on them
you lie that if theirs had directly been addressed to the children themselves.
To give an idea of these conversations I will bring one of them in full.
