Our Kids and Their Media - Faith

Marisa is out of town tonight so I handled bedtime. Over the course of picking up kids from school, watching them after school, driving them around and reading bedtime books, it occurred to me that our kids have some specific tastes in media right now that say a lot about where they're at in life (come to think of it, we all do). But I thought I would make a note here so I don't forget.

Faith:

She loves anything Dora the Explorer (sheets, pillows, nighties, her Dora stuffed doll that's almost as big as she is...) so it's no suprise that when she "inherited" Tanner's old Leapster, the Dora game instantly became her favorite.

If you haven't heard big ol' IZ sing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/It's a Wonderful World" then your life is not as bright as it could be. Download it from somewhere, burn it for a lullabye CD for your daughter and then listen to it every night as you put her to bed.

The Bob Dylan book was a gift from Auntie Sue and the book quickly became a family sing along that all of the kids love, but Faithy picked it tonight for her bedtime book.
