The adorable banter between Winston and Cowboy Mike is not just fun to read but also teaches you some great lessons.
Nowadays, children are more occupied with their phones than with learning materials. Instead of going out to play in the park, most are cooped up in their beds, playing games or watching videos.
The first eight years of life are crucial for a child’s brain development. It’s not the time for handing them gadgets and extended screen time. It is the time for gentle parenting, bedtime stories, and picture books.
Picture books are the best learning medium to instill healthy habits in your child. They serve as a window to another realm, where they can fly, fight some bad guys and save the day. They also learn the differences between good and evil, love and hurt, and also the importance of friendships and emotions.
Cowboy Mike and Winston also want to teach children something important. Micheal D. Eastwood’s A Day in the Life of Cowboy Mike and Winston is an adventure-logue of Cowboy Mike and his pony, Winston. Although they are always busy having fun and working to care for each other, there are hidden lessons in their story that parents and children should know.
It Teaches Time Management
Time management is the first thing that paves the road to success.
A person who knows how to spend their day productively tends to achieve more and miss fewer opportunities. Time management is not an easy skill to master for young ones, especially when they have shorter attention spans and so much to explore around them. However, you can make them realize its value through Cowboy Mike’s devotion to caring for Winston, his pony.
A Day in the Life of Cowboy Mike and Winston can teach children how to tell time on a clock, the difference between minutes, hours, days, and nights in a playful way. It also teaches them how to divide this time to work more in less time.
Sense of Responsibility

As owners, you must keep them safe and protected as a sign of your love and affection for them.
Cowboy Mike also does the same for Winston. He feeds, cleans, and protects him, giving him a home to live in. Why? Because as Winston’s Owner, Cowboy Mike is responsible for him.
Self-Care Before Others
How can you care for your pet if you cannot care for yourself? Not at all.
