Maybe they can’t tie their shoes or differentiate between a car and
a gorilla, but toddlers have a lot more going on intellectually than
they’d have you believe. Yes, even if they make a habit of sticking their hand in their diaper after a poop.
In fact, adults would be wise to take a few pages out of a toddler’s

are indestructible.)
Here are 10 important lessons we could all learn from toddlers:
Lessons from Toddlers
They're not nearly as dumb as they look.
Might as Well Laugh at Your Own Farts
Your farts are funny.
Then again, pretty much everything you do is funny.
You're welcome.

This includes the emotional wall built by newborn siblings between you and your parents.
Or, as it translates to adults: That pesky door that the people at the coffee shop insist on locking when they're not there.
Everything is Funnier When You're Naked
Don't take our word for it; go to the post office with nothing but your wallet and the best of intentions and see what happens.
If You Can't Beat 'Em, Look Very, Very Cute
We'll see who the real loser is after you have a few tantalizing tears in your eyes and your mouth is formed into an adorable little pout.
