When you come to think of it, a child needs the very same things a tree does in order to grow.
Earth. Water. Sun. Air.
Each one of these four elements represents a basic component necessary to provide a child with what it needs in order to grow and develop properly.
When teaching our children, we must humbly accept and "lower" ourselves to their level. We must translate whatever we want to say into a language they can comfortably understand and absorb. That is one of the reasons that wisdom is compared to water. Water, like wisdom, finds itself most comfortable in the lowest (i.e., most humble) recipient.
