Mother's Day
7 May 2012 | 5:30 amI have been a mother for three years. My mother has been gone for almost four years. Like many daughters, I always imagined how I would do a better job raising my kids. Then I had them and I find myself doing and saying the same things I swore I wouldn't. "I'm going to count to three!” "At least three more pieces of broccoli or no dessert." "Please stop the whining!" It is by far the hardest job I do; much harder than writing scripts for Sesame Street. What I find the most challenging is having the patience required to do the best job you can. Trying… -
Counting the Number Zero
30 Apr 2012 | 5:30 amNumber of the Day: ZeroCounting is very big in our house. It started with counting for “Hide-n-Seek” (where they started saying “eleventeen” which tickled us to no end.) Then came counting Snow White’s Dwarfs, and mermaids, and horses, and, and, and... Basically, any moment in the day can be a counting opportunity, as you will see in Marty’s video of the girls at the Aquarium: No Flash Player Fun features on SesameStreet.org - games, videos, playlists and more - require the latest Flash player. Don't miss out on the full experience,… -
Sister Chanel
23 Apr 2012 | 5:30 amWord of the Day: SisterMarty’s daughter, Chanel, is living with us for the moment. She’s a brilliant artist, bathing suit designer, as well as an excellent big sister. She has been an incredible addition to our little “happily family” as Ripley calls us. I’m really not “crafty.” My parents never broke out the paints, glitter, and hot glue and got the kitchen table covered in material and paper to make projects. Chanel is constantly doing art with them, for which I am eternally grateful. I want it to be… -
Egg Sorting
16 Apr 2012 | 9:30 amCurriculum: Executive FunctioningAs I mentioned in a previous post, this year's curriculum is Executive Functioning. I'm always on the lookout for examples of it, in our day to day life, to help me get a better understanding of how to use the curriculum for a potential show idea. Our recent Easter egg hunt gave us a grand opportunity to practice sorting. This is one of the many "school readiness" activities that can be done easily at home. The girls helped me sort the real eggs which were heavy and cold from the plastic eggs that were light and made music…
