Kid Stuff

Marie S. mentioned this important video in a comment here. Can't believe I'd never seen this before. (Hi, Caden!)

  3. I love it! Pete didn't want to watch because his number is 4. In his own words, 4 is his favorite because "he likes to draw the leg." Must see if there are any "4" videos out there. :-)

  6. That was totally cool. I think I remember seeing that before. It brought back good feelings of being little.

  8. Yup I was going to say 20 years ago too, but it's probably more like 35 - Eek!

  9. Yup, Sesame Street. :) We have it on the "What's the Name of that Song" video. Can still picture Small One at two, running around like crazy to that song: "Eights! Eights! Eights! Eightseightseightseightseights! Eeeeiiiiights!!"

    Schoolhouse Rock is on DVD! My brother and I saw the segments on Saturday mornings between cartoons; he liked the "Three Is a Magic Number" song best, by far. (The refrain goes, "3 6 9 ... 12 15 18 ...") Couple (er, or more) decades later, I found the Schoolhouse Rock DVD for Small One after he'd gone so crazy about the "8 Balls of Fur" song. His instant favorite over-and-over-and-over-again song? Yup.

    Anyway, glad y'all like this!

  10. Oh, you know WE watch it a lot!!! I was so excited to see it mentioned. We googled 8 and have found all kinds of fun things (including Bev and her website).

    (For those that don't know, my little girl's special interests are 8 and purple; she's 4. Oh, she likes 8 because it is "perfect" upside down, too. And also with her synesthesia, 8 is the only purple number.)

    So excited about the posters I'm going to hang!

  11. Hilarious even without audio. I note that the piano falls apart at the end. Nothing is held back!

  12. Totally unrelated to 8, but full of lovely rectilinear patterns, this new microchip as featured in the Guardian newspaper:

  13. This was one of Little Chrissy's rare solo performances -- the number eight, of course, being important enough to compel him to take to the stage without The Alphabeats.
