I watched the two seasons of Hilda on Netflix with my oldest and we both really liked it. The Deerfox episode is one of the better things I've seen so far this year.

I find this to be an endless treasure trove of books for my kids and myself.

Kids learned “Down By The Bay” at school. Singing it at volume level “scream” over and over right now. One of them set up all his dishes as a drum set on the table, banging away with plastic knives.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Pretty deep into the Toy Story universe at this point. My kid can't even form sentences yet but he definitely understands the feelings in those movies.

Our kiddo liked a lot of Moana, but similar issue with some parts that he disconnected from. Something about Woody and Buzz just gets him, though. And college aged Andy.

Tonight the Binky Fairy arrives. Been building it up for the past week. After she falls asleep, her binkies will be replaced by Cookie Monster and Chef Gonger. But no more binkies as of tomorrow morning.

Rookie mistake--just find 5 episodes that have it and watch those 5 over and over.tragabigzanda wrote:My kid’s current favorite is the Abby’s Amazing Adventures segment. Which only happens on random episodes. So every time we eat Sesame Street now, I’ve got to refer to Muppet Wiki to make sure we’re getting one.

My oldest was way into it back in the day. He was sad when he went to college.
