Every day I wake up my son Eliot to go to school.
– Today is education day! (I say)
– What did you say (sleepy voice)?
– Education day!
– What’s the difference with School day?
– School day is when you go to school and education day is when you get an education
– OK!? So I don’t get an education when I go to school?
– Well not every day. Don’t you agree?
– There are good days and bad days; days when the teacher is in a good mood, days when he is not; days when I am in a good mood…
– So every school day is not always an education day!
– Sounds brillant at 7.30 am. So you want me to go to school or to stay in bed?
– Tell me what you will learn if you stay in bed?
– I don’t know: dream, relax, think…
– And if you go to school?
– think, work, dream…
– So let’s stand up
– and where do we go?
– for a walk in the city… where education really takes place!
– and we will tweet about it…
