My two 1/2 year old is obsessed with the Easter Bunny. Due to a cold snap, we've been spending more time indoors than I like~ and of course as luck would have it, this is the thing she'd most like to be doing~ watching the '71 classic Here Comes Peter Cotton Tail... A story, which I find utterly annoying! Peter goes around trying to get rid of all these ridiculous eggs~ Christmas eggs, 4th of July, Halloween,... I secretly like Iron Tail and want him to win.
We watched The Wizard Of Oz yesterday and while B. found it boring (except for Glinda, the Good Witch and those ruby slippers on Dorothy's feet) N. was completely entranced. He loved it! He had so many questions during the movie, which made it a lot of fun. I asked him if the flying monkeys scare him like they did me when I was little and he shrugged "nah". The grabby apple trees don't bother him like they did J. ("No ma, I don't want to watch it with you guys, I don't exactly have fond memories of those trees.") and we both loved when the witch got melted by that bucket of water!
I got a big pile of books and movies from the library yesterday. B. wants to watch Barbie of Swan Lake, N wants to watch Disney's A Wrinkle In Time (the book was a bit much for him, so we're going to wait on that till next year) and lucky me, I took out the 1967 film Up The Down Staircase. I also took out a Dean Koontz and a Tabitha King book for me~ unfortunately, I think I already read both of them. Oops!
