Our Blog - A fresh Take

This is a blog about the art of helping the children in our lives realize their potential and use their gifts, especially those children who may not move as well, the “crasher banger” kids, the shy types, and those picked last for ball games. It’s about seeing beyond the surface to discover who our children are and helping them shine. We’ll discuss how children grow and learn, how they move and use their senses, and why they do things like spin in circles until they fall down. Mostly it’s about all of us taking a step back and seeing each other for who we really are. That’s a tall order. We’re complex creatures. Let’s begin.

Hilarious Portlandia Parenting Video

February 25, 2013/ Moira Sullivan

For anyone not familiar with the show, Portlandia is a parody of life in Portland, Oregon. Although it definitely is not meant to be taken literally, this clip is a funny reminder that too much information is not necessarily better :)

I apologize in advance for the language at the end (I would not let kids who can read watch the very end).
