The Importance of Sharing

The act of sharing is giving someone a portion or part of something you have, usually a physical object. Sharing can also refer to a feeling or opinion. Sharing is a virtue, an act of unselfishness and generosity.

In a business context, the word “share” can also mean a share of stock in a company. This share is a way to invest in the company and take part in its success.

As children grow, they learn about sharing by watching their parents and other adults.

Children can also practice their sharing skills by choosing dress-up clothes together or drawing a big picture using the same packet of crayons.

By the age of 2 years, most children understand the concept of sharing and can begin to play fairly with others. But they might still struggle with the idea that they might not get to keep their own toys, especially if another child is already using them. And they may be impatient when waiting their turn to use a toy.
