The kids recently spent some of their hard earned allowance on a few small toys from Walgreens. And because they’ve seen so many “unboxing” videos on youtube, they wanted to make one of their own. While their ramblings when on for a total of just over 30 minutes, this 8 minute video captures the best of it. Believe me, there’s nothing missed by not seeing what didn’t make the final video.
From Tornado to Dorothy.
Every spring the preschool does a performance of The Wizard of Oz and this year Sydney was Dorothy (well, one of two Dorothy’s). She was so excited and it’s so great to see her just get up there and belt it out without being nervous at all. We are so proud of her.
As seen on The Today Show today. What an exciting idea for kids to have this option.
The kids have been obsessed with watching videos on YouTube. Videos of kids (sometimes created by kids) playing with toys, or showing a new toy, or talking about a new toy or opening a box that has a new toy… you get the idea.
Andrew has been wanting to create one of his own for awhile, so when he asked if we could do it one fine Saturday morning, I said “Sure son! Let me grab my cameras”.
I did my best to help him make a good video, but it turns out he was the expert on making videos. So I pretty much let him run the show on this one and gave him almost no direction. I decided we could do it his way first, and then maybe I could make suggestions for the next one. If he hasn’t already lost interest.
If you watch the first 30 seconds, you’ve pretty much seen it all.
![Easter Sunday Egg Hunt Surprise [video]](https://tomchak.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/poster_frame_web.jpg)
This year instead of going to the big local Egg Hunt on Saturday we (and when I say “we” I mean Brenda) created a egg hunt in our side yard. The kids didn’t know about it until right before it happened and it was a nice surprise for them.
I’m always amazed at seeing the world through the kids eyes. The simplest things bring them such insane joy. I want to get just a little of that back.
