What about approaching the tea drinking experience in a special way,
such as how a child might?

To do this, I fancy pretending to act out a tea-making/drinking
scenario in imitation of the Japanese ceremony.

What all the ingredients of the Japanese tea ceremony are, I'm not
sure. *Something about two people involved in the process, which is
done deliberately and appreciation of living close to the earth, as in
days of old.

To bring out the child-like experience, I think it should be described
as a performance, or play, like children do when they are imitating
adults in some fantasy. *In fact, it would probably be good if you
played at making tea with a child or two, having each do his/her part,
then tasting the result.

Kids are great at pretending something be done in a certain way, being
an actor, etc.. *Also, I think kids enjoy repeating the same
experience. *Probably, they like correcting each other, too. *bookburn

Children should probably not drink anything with caffeine in it. The
English tea party, with a tisane, has been fun for a lot of
children. Toci
