The girls read about a pet collar cam a while back, and I promised them to look into it. I found only one, offered on various sites, and the reviews were quite mixed. I bought it knowing that it could break on first wearing — it is not waterproof. It arrived in our mailbox (no

geocache mission
Fort Mountain was our address this weekend. The “Trading Post” had wifi, but in the so-called “cottages” I could barely squeak an Edge connection on my phone. More on our weekend later this week…. As we were leaving, my parents pulled up to the cottage with a plan. Not quite fully formed, but a plan.
Rehearsing for gbkZoo Episode #2
The girls are hard at work on Episode #2. We’ve filmed a bunch of segments, some which will appear and some which will not. We’re away “camping” this weekend with friends and filming a new segment called “Zoo Pass.” The new episode, due to appear Monday, will also have a fun musical surprise from a

Every Day is Earth Day
right? I was not too surprised at some of the backlash that I saw to Earth Day. No, these are not people that hate the earth, these are the ones that love it and think that *every day* should be Earth Day, so they don’t want to do anything special. There’s a little more to
Cooking Fun Results
The Rice Krispie treats, once cut up but before they were devoured. Not sure that I see skirts and shirts, but …
Listen to Your Buds
On two of my other websites Kids Place Live Fans and Gooney Birds Kids, I recently posted a semi-PSA about a campaign called Listen to Your Buds. This got me thinking. How many kids do listen to their music and too loud, and why? I don’t know, I’m curious. For me, the rule has been
Behind the Scenes
Here’s what our house looked like as we prepared for taping Episode #1 on Sunday:
gbkZoo videocast
The girls and I have been talking about a new project for some time now (like I need another project), and yesterday we progressed on it. They love the idea of having a webshow (though technically a videocast since it isn’t live). We have posted the first episode, started a blog and, of course, created
gbkZoo videocast Episode #1
The GBKids have created their first videocast! This episode includes Cooking Fun, Kindie Buzz, Random Dance Scene and Fan Mail. Stay tuned for future episodes!
DC Concerts
DC was hopping this week for kids’ music. We just couldn’t fit it all in! We went to Jammin’ Java in Vienna TWICE, once to see Secret Agent 23 Skidoo and then again for Rocknoceros’s big PINK! CD relesae party. We went to the most awesome of venues, the White House, where we took in
Welcome to gbkZoo!
The girls love to make movies, so we are creating a new videocast. We’ll see how well we can keep it up, but stay tuned for the first episode coming up soon. We’ve been filming like mad. I think we’ll start with shorter than ten minute episodes. Any longer than that and I think we’ll
DC LIke A Local
Okay, I’m no DC local. And I have not seen nearly all that DC has to offer. But I have found a blog called, obviously enough, DC Like A Local. Not only have I agreed with a lot of the advice provided, but I have also found useful tidbits of information from the posts. Things
Around DC
Besides going to the White House Easter Egg Roll and taking the bus to Vienna to see a kids’ show (more on that coming soon), we’ve also taken in a few more of the sites of DC. I’m in the midst of a documentation release and the weather has been not so nice, so we
White House Easter Egg Roll
Not long after the sun rose, we started down Pennsylvania Ave towards the White House, stopping for coffee and muffins along the way. We joined the throngs of families and headed towards the entrance gate and security check. It looked exactly like entering the Austin City Limits Festival, except that we had to go through
Pine Lake Easter Egg Hunt
While planning our trips to DC, the girls were insistent that we not head to DC until we had participated in the Pine Lake Easter Egg Hunt. So we booked plane tickets to head up to DC in the afternoon AFTER the hunt. Even though we had stayed up to after midnight the night before
