The first video is Christ teaching his disciples and helping them understand what they must do to come to Heaven.  The second video is when Christ tells the apostles to allow the children to Come unto Him.

Quote/Principle

Children are a gift from God.  Jesus Christ taught in action and word the importance of children.

Children are the past, the present, and the future all blended into one. They are consummately precious. Every time a child is born, the world is renewed in innocence. … There is in the scriptures, there is in what we publish, there is in what we believe, there is in what we teach, counsel, commandments, even warnings that we are to protect, to love, to care for, and to "teach [children] to walk in the ways of truth." To betray them is utterly unthinkable.

Boyd K. Packer; April 2002, General Conference
