I'm excited to give them a look :) I hope that you're eventually able to go through Redwall with your kids! I'm sure you'd have a blast. In addition to the animated series and books, there are also websites with tons of recipes (the books talk about food A LOT) that you'd probably enjoy making as well.

New babies, sickness, and non-stop rain are the first ones that come to mind for us.<br /><br />I really love watching stuff with them. My 4 year old has hilarious commentary for movies. If I was more techy I would totally do a side by side commentary of Star Wars movies with 4 year old commentary. It would be amazing. :)Kirbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10273803585943545418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-232664651858738176.post-10648630585130859092016-09-10T11:35:19.631-05:002016-09-10T11:35:19.631-05:00Redwall was something I missed growing up, but so ...Redwall was something I missed growing up, but so many people have told me how much they loved the books and the show! I think going through it with my kids would be really fun. One of the perks of homeschooling is getting to have another go at kid lit or learn things you missed the first time around. ;)<br /><br />One of the things I like about watching the ballets on youtube, especially the full length ones, is they often have an intro during the overture where they show the dancer's picture with their name and character name/description. It makes it so much easier to follow!Kirbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10273803585943545418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-232664651858738176.post-28094853000109252442016-09-10T11:32:56.806-05:002016-09-10T11:32:56.806-05:00We just finished reading Little House in the Big W...We just finished reading Little House in the Big Woods, and Farmer Boy is next on the docket after we finish Ballet Shoes.

Since my kids are still so young, my husband and I also definitely like to be present and interactive when letting them watch a show - which used to be an occasional treat but is a bit more frequent now that there's a newborn in the house! Also, I agree about the rule of watching shows that aren't annoying to us parents! :)Biancahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10629074229091510163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-232664651858738176.post-23615327029249524392016-09-09T18:45:42.461-05:002016-09-09T18:45:42.461-05:00Liberty's Kids is the best!

Another one of my PBS favorites was the animated Redwall series :) It's such a good idea to look up Wishbone or ballets on youtube! I love all the options that the Internet gives us :) This makes me want to look up some ballets, because I haven't watched a full-length ballet in years (and that was only when watching The Nutcracker on TV).

I might have to show them the British Isles one so they can see more about where Mommy and Daddy were this summer.
