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 never watched it, but my 8yo daughter binge watched it with enthusiasm.

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.

We tried to watch Moana recently and was into it until the villain showed up, then it was "scary scary no like it." We also tried The Incredibles once, but it was too fast-paced for me to feel comfortable letting her watch it; I could almost hear the ADHD forming...

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.
Good luck

Binkie Fairy will be stage name if I become a children's entertainer.

Rookie mistake--just find 5 episodes that have it and watch those 5 over and over.

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